Thank god for bold platforms like TikTok that refuse to push US propaganda. Really smart of them to not censor valuable information as a way of fooling the US government into exposing its evil censorship ways. TikTok's fate in the US was never a topic before the current wave of pro-Palestinian activism started. It certainly wasn't one of Trump's main talking points ten years ago. Good thing he changed his mind after getting his hands on ~~some Chinese money~~ lucrative investmenet from Chinese citizens that are not at all connected to Tencent.

None of this discourse on combatting foreign information manipulation started over a decade ago, its all about censoring pro-Palestine voices here and now. TikTok and China in general are known for their calm, collected attitudes toward Muslims. They certainly would never weaponize a contentious topic every which way imaginable in pursuit of financial and geopolitical goals. We need more of these open and bold platforms.

Know what the other “tell” is? They write a wall of text. Big thick paragraphs. It’s a thing, start looking for it.

& when you call them out they want to lead you down this endless response chain. You wonder if they get bonuses for it

[–] dx1@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

Oh yeah, nothing like hallucinating that everyone you talk to is an enemy, and when they complain, well that just proves it.
