If anything Reddit is the one that actually should be banned above all else. It has censorship built into the platform, sells user data to the highest bidders from people all across the world, has hardcore propaganda pushed throughout the whole website, operates on free labor that promotes groupthink, and is controlled by vague rules that they make up and interpret themselves without risk of libel or punishment for promoting fake news. A few updoot bots on Reddit can do way more damage than a few TikTok’s and it’s not even close
Exactly...imagine defending a CCP asset operated in the USA lol. This ban is a GOOD thing. It gives the government power to ban foreign media within the US borders.
Like what? Sterilizing Ethiopian jews for being a dirty race? Mass executing civilians after crying about genocide and war crimes since the holocaust? Torturing and raping detainees? Oppressing darker-skinned jews and attacking the more orthodox anti-zionist sects just living their lives? Those are just a few.
The only country actively standing up for its people right now is Israel. Go figure. And its the one country that the Axis of Evil is trying to destroy.
I know you're just trolling, but nowhere did I say those countries were good, and certainly not a pantheon (I don't think that's the word you're looking for, by the way) of human rights.
I was not making any moral judgements, merely pointing out how certain narratives and entities are trotted out again and again to trigger emotional responses in people to get them to do what the government or media wants.
Let's say China, Russia, and Iran are 100% Bad™. I'm still going to be suspicious of the people telling me how bad they are, to get me to believe or go along with things I normally wouldn't agree with. I don't care if the Axis of Evil is bad...so is censoring the internet, in this example. These entities being good or bad is completely irrelevant.
Which are "their people," the Communists or the Muslims? One enemy is using another enemy's spyware to spread their propaganda, and we're supposed to be outraged that they might finally be cut off?
Never mind these simpletons. Of they could they would allow CCP propaganda in the US and let Israel get overrun by snackbars just to satiate their Hitler fetish.
Think about the precedent that this sets. Patriots.win was mentioned by name by the January 6 committee. You know that the dems wouldn’t hesitate to ban this site if they thought that they could get away with it.
Kidding. That's the funny part about this conflict...I hate both sides. I wish the best for the people actually on the ground, on both sides...but hate the obnoxious activists here protesting for either side.
These fuckers are so obnoxious they get me, a generally antiwar generally libertarian fellow, to despise these "antiwar" protestors. I suppose it's not the first time, as a lot of antiwar protestors have always been commie faggots, but still. It's remarkable how annoying they are.
"Stop Israeli genocide!" I totally agree...now put down the foreign flag, you subversive piece of shit.
"Hamas are terrorists, and Israel has a right to defend itself!" Correct, now stop calling everyone who tells you to stop committing war crimes antisemitic Nazis that need to be jailed, stop trying to strip me of my speech rights...and also stop waving the foreign flag, you subversive piece of shit.
my grandma and i agree on something about these "protesters" a lot of them seem to be paid stooges or just brainwashed as theres no way its organic. has blm style fingerprints on it.
Not sure you saw, but a bunch of it is apparently funded and organized by Soros organizations. So you and your grandma were spot on; completely inorganic.
This has been really pissing me off. Jewish students were only told to leave campus by a rabbi. How Jewish students feel is not of concern to me. No feelings of no students are of concern to me. They are entitled to the same amount of police protection as everyone else -- none.
(((Polling))) shows Americans overwhelmingly support Israel over Hamas.
Sorry, I had to.
Don't most Americans also support a ceasefire? I've been told that's supporting Hamas. So I could say most Americans support Hamas.
As always, there are lies, damn lies, and statistics.
How about we just actually put it to a vote?! Not that I support other people being allowed to steal my money or decide what news I can consume, but at least that would actually be more representational and democratic than listening to some retard read me what the "polling" says I support.
I hate to sound all Reddit, but it's a false dichotomy to try and corral you into the Good Boy pen. Considering how quickly antisemitism, and pro-racism in general are taking off, the media's been trying to convince people to hide their true viewpoints.
Can you elaborate? Sorry, it's probably a me issue, but I don't quite understand what you mean. What's the false dichotomy? And in what ways do you mean the media is trying to convince people to hide? Cheers.
A false dichotomy is when you reduce a situation to two possiblities--the thing you want, and the "opposite" of that thing, usually something socially unacceptable.
The "hiding" I'm referring to means people keep socially unacceptable viewpoints to themselves because the media has convinced them very few people agree with them, and everyone else will be against them for having these viewpoints. It's like how we were assured everyone wanted more COVID lockdowns, but everything was jam packed with people when it got too painful--even people insisting lock downs were correct would do this while trying to convince everyone they agreed with them, like the media insisted was true.
China so bad we send 90% of our pharma and chip production to them. China the most bad because we send most of our manufactory jobs and industry to them. China so bad we let them buy up huge swaths of farmland across the US.
Until our gov stops treating China like some kind of total partner, I'll be a little skeptical of 'We gotta ban x y z to save the children from China'.
The US is the most propagandized country in the world.
So Tiktok is the worst thing to look at right now? Really? Not the massive inflation on literally everything? Not the massive influx of low IQ military age men coming from the border? A fucking app that is encouraging “pro-Palestine” mentality… my god this won’t end unless “in Minecraft.”
Because of the way they are doing it, I expect an even bigger backlash and more anti Jewish sentiment from the younger activists as a result.
China has been trying to undermine the US as a competitor, the establishment and Deep State have been undermining the US as part of their 'plan' only they didn't realise this plan doesn't come with an off button or a way to stop it targeting them.
TikTok is "dangerous" because it's a platform that they don't control.
There's currently a media campaign against TikTok here in Germany because leftists found out a right-leaning party is more successful at reaching younger audiences than all of the left combined.
Yeah they'll use the jew thing as an in to weaponize the govt to go after the real prize: X and smaller sites like this one. I bet you after all that TikTok will magically survive as long as they brainwash about the right things.

Reddit serves a much more important role of exposing young children to pornography
Gee I wonder why. It will remain a mystery for the ages.
Probably because China doesn't flat out own reddit?
I agree with you, but it's not exactly hard to understand why it's just tiktok (right now)
They actually do! Look at reddits top investors
Tencent owns a minority stake. Like a pretty small stake iirc. Not the same, but I'd still be down with Reddit being removed from the net.
Exactly...imagine defending a CCP asset operated in the USA lol. This ban is a GOOD thing. It gives the government power to ban foreign media within the US borders.
Fucking Republicans. Defending their masters and betraying their people. Damn them all to Hell.
I’m tired of choosing between two evils
"But...but...think of the children...and the Israel (good)...the China (BAD!)...and...and RUSSIA (VERY BAD!)."
"OH AND IRAN REEEEE (SUPER DUPER MEGA BAD)!"
"In conclusion, fuck you, Americans. This is for your own good."
Because China, Russia, and Iran are all pantheons of human rights right?
Like Israel, goyserf?
Show me the human rights violations committed by Israel

I really hate the times you have a valid point because it pains me to agree with you.
The only country actively standing up for its people right now is Israel. Go figure. And its the one country that the Axis of Evil is trying to destroy.
I stand with the Azov Regime

in a nutshell, thats how it works.
And people fall for it, over, and over, and over.
Which are "their people," the Communists or the Muslims? One enemy is using another enemy's spyware to spread their propaganda, and we're supposed to be outraged that they might finally be cut off?
Never mind these simpletons. Of they could they would allow CCP propaganda in the US and let Israel get overrun by snackbars just to satiate their Hitler fetish.
The left longs to jail or kill every single republican as soon as they can and this is the shit the right cares about.
Think about the precedent that this sets. Patriots.win was mentioned by name by the January 6 committee. You know that the dems wouldn’t hesitate to ban this site if they thought that they could get away with it.
perhaps a bunker needs constructed. maybe kiwi can at least provide info on how.
I hope it doesn’t come to that where this site needs to do all the crazy stuff that null has had to do to keep kiwi farms online.

At least China isn't trying to replace its own native population.

The last tiktok bill was all about removing privacy, and security while saying, " tiktok bad". YouTube shorts is already cutting in on tiktok.

who the fuck cares about palestinians.
how about we send some money to east palestine ohio
remember them?
much closer to your home state mr SENATOR OF NEBRASKA.
Do it. Ban it. Make your agenda as obvious as possible, until no one can deny it. Its the only way forward.
Just make it 21 years old minimum to have a cellphone. Best solution.
Better yet, just ban phones from having an internet connection.
or failing that just put them on their own great firewall style intranet.
They had no problem when the app was spreading hate against whites. Fuck the Jews.
China so bad we send 90% of our pharma and chip production to them. China the most bad because we send most of our manufactory jobs and industry to them. China so bad we let them buy up huge swaths of farmland across the US.

Its true. TikTok is a dangerous platform. There are 2 benefits that come from banning TikTok..

I love the CCP because they put mudslimes in concentration camps
