There will never be an apology they just jump to the next topic and start applying the brakes there as well.

I don't trust Tim, who when shit finally got to his doorstep, literally packed up and moved instead of using his position and personality to influence his community.

If they do this when shit is important, they will care even less about fixing things that affect you.

No shame in leaving a community which rejects you and which rejects God. Move, take your family and business out of Sodom before it is too late. Stay and fight if you think it is prudent sure, but it's not always wise.

I suppose that's true, didn't he live in a suburb of DC or something? I guess that's a place to get out of for sure.

I'm just sick of people that bitch about the state of things and then turn tail when things get tough around them instead of fighting it.

Chicago. One of the bad parts.

Then New Jersey, IIRC.

There's no fight to be had in either of those places.

yeah that's definitely one of those 'leave while you can and reinforce the fight elsewhere'

That's the other thing, it's actively useful to the people and new community you move to to move and reinforce them, if its a spot able to be saved. You're doing a good by moving there.

Tim Pool, The Quartering and many Conservative commentators

I.e. grifters, opportunists and controlled opposition.

We all saw this coming. I hope the retard conservative talking heads who pushed the TikTok nonsense are at least sensible enough to realize their fuckups. But I won't hold my breath.

Also, it's often said you don't hate the media enough. This is true. It's also true that you don't hate the government enough.

I hope this is more indication of how much they've lost control and are desperate to grab it back than being back on their plan before Trump got elected.

I'd go only with the former more because given how all their cases against Trump are failing and the main public sentiment is 'fuck Joe Biden' along with every mainstream media company doing cuts, although this is bad it can be reversed quickly so long as we fight against it now.

TikTok is already heavily censored, they are not banning it because of the content, the argument is that if China bans Google, Twitter and Facebook why should we allow Chinese tech companies like TikTok to operate here, let them taste their own medicine. Why do you think Chinese tech companies do so well in their home country? Because all of their competitors are banned.

If that was the case, could have done it when Trump was in office because China was already doing it then, but Congress didn't want it and media screeched holy hell as apparently China wasn't evil.

It's an election year, Russia is holding out in Ukraine, Israel is losing their narrative over the Gaza situation, users are moving away from the major social media honeypots, and the Congress critters are pissing their pants post-pandemic about how much people are seeing the bullshit. With all the context, this isn't about choking China's influence and giving it back to them, it's because the government doesn't have full control over the flow of information on the US portion of the Internet. They're giving themselves a way in.

I fail to see what Putin or Hamas terrorists have to do with any of this other than they are both supported by China.

TikTok is censored in all the wrong ways. Underage girls doing thirst traps and furry dancing is still rampant on the app.

Meanwhile TikTok in China is heavily regulated to only show educational videos and whatnot. It is a blatant use of weaponized social media to attack our youth and the only thing that is censored is anything remotely right-wing that endangers the propaganda machine

Ah yes. The classic strategy of proving the "conspiracy theorists" wrong by doing exactly what they are accusing you of. It's truly a genius plan.

İf problematic information involves anti semitic content, there is an argument for that. But more often than not it jist ends up shitting down open spaces. Regardless, a modern democracy should be able to restrict public access to dangerous platforms like TikTok.

There is no such thing as problematic information. If something can be destroyed by the truth, it should be.
