This reads like Facebook propaganda. If they are paying people who gives a fuck.
TikTok also wants to turn millions of teenagers into “pranksters” who are just begging for a beating.
Just the thumbnail of greasy slobs shoveling trash into their mouths is pissing me off.
I honestly don’t get it, but my SO is all over that nonsense. I honestly don’t know why I’d ever want to watch someone else eat.
What does your SO say about it? My SO is into TikTok and sometimes I see her watching odd stuff too. She can’t/hasn’t tried to really articulate why.
They’re just really into food. We watched a Korean cooking competition last night (Culinary Class Wars, basically Michelin star chefs vs other well-respected chefs), and it had a lot of that “watch other people eat” bits, but with some actual entertainment (i.e. descriptions of how dishes are prepared). My SO liked the descriptions of the food (mouth feel and whatnot), whereas I was more interested in the ingredients and cooking process.
I don’t really understand it (food isn’t particularly important to me), and they probably don’t understand my weird fascination with other things (e.g. watching personal finance videos that I strongly disagree with), so I guess we just accept that we’re into different things.
I couldn’t give less of a poo about influencers making money on TikTok.
My media is inundated with genocidal zionist propaganda completely supported by the state.
What is the difference between Israel and China to make it morally right for you to support one genocidal regime and not the other?
Seems like they don’t care about tiktok at all Idk if I’d call that support. Also, I can’t speak for him here but none of my tax dollars go to the Chinese government while more of my tax dollars go to isreal than local schools. So if hes from a country aiding Isreal like me he has an obligation to say something about it or else be complicit is his labor buying weapons for genocide. Its the same reason US protestors focused on Biden instead of Netenyahu when this stated. We don’t get to vote for or against Bibi, but Biden, we do, or at this point ‘did’

China has more trade ties to the US than Israel does.
I see no calls to stop investing in Chinese companies, or buying Chinese products because of the Genocide happening within their borders.

“With data provided by the Congressional Research Service, Senator Ernst and Open the Books determined more than $490 million from U.S. grants and contracts were paid to organizations in China since 2017 and another $870 million were paid to entities in Russia.”
Seems America just loves supporting Genocidal regimes with tax money, and Americans love pretending it doesn’t end up there.

It is morally okay to support, or completely ignore, countries like China according to you and the person I originally responded to.
Can you elaborate on why that is without making false claims about tax dollars?
Wasn’t tiktok getting banned? Is that still happening?
