With all the war crimes Israeli soldiers have filmed and uploaded themselves, it is a real threat to the American narratives.

i hope they keep doing that after tiktok goes away.

the videos of american troops beating & dragging people out of their homes in gaza and forced onto auschwitz style trains of full people will only surface on rednote (if anywhere at all) before it gets banned like tiktok.

if it weren't for the video evidence recorded by american troops during ww2; the holocaust would be little more than a consipracy theory; so these videos are important to remind ourselves that the victims of one genocide are perfectly happy committing a genocide themselves and that the same world's super power that has enabled and committed the worst of them will keep doing it no matter how much they insist it's "unamerican"

Call me a hopeless optimist, but maybe, just maybe, the next time they start calling something a security risk, we'll get less people parroting this same bullshit.

What do you mean, "Deepseek"?

No one with a brain actually thought the ban was because of China. This makes far more sense.

A lot of people on these forums don't have brains, then. Which I agree with.

China is pro-Palestinian, so it's still directly related

aha! the thing we knew all along

This doesn't surprise me tbh, tiktok has been used for protests and organizing and that always pisses off the government more than liking china.

Bah, could have just as easily been cause someone said something that hurt Trump/Musk's feelings.
