All privately owned and controlled social media are all already right wing propaganda machines
This takeover of tiktok is just another cog in the giant right wing propaganda machine that’s already been running for decades
Tik tok will die and become a cesspit of far right people. Honestly just a way to burn billions of dollars in a year.
I mean, I hope so, just like I hoped so for Twitter.
Evidently a lot of people can’t give up whatever is the biggest social platform of its type
I wonder if the demographics will change things. TikTok (I don’t use it but from what I assume) is full of liberal people of different ages, genders (LGBTQ+) whereas Twitter was for mostly middle aged white people.
Wrong, TikTok will become a right wing propaganda algo aimed at people Fox and OAN wouldn’t ever reach.
I’m not sure how the members of Congress of both parties who voted for the (imo unconstitutional, despite what the court says) TikTok ban expected government control of which media companies are allowed to operate in the US to end in any other way. Did they have fantasies of an apolitical forced takeover? Forced takeovers aren’t generally apolitical things.
Neoliberals and Republicans/maga all just assumed that they’d be personally handed the keys and get to enforce their own biases.
It’s the same way they both controlled what their respective billionaire owned media said in private, then publicly complained about the other side doing it in public.
If you want a politician to do the ethical thing. You need to start looking at progression Dems.
Neo liberals have always just been conservatives who want to be popular. They think alike, that’s why for decades there’s been such a disconnect between Dem politicians and Dem voters.
Neoliberals don’t represent Dem voters.
TikTok to transition? Ironic.
Correct me if I’m wrong…but Loops is the only tiktok clone in existence, right?
