Rant made by an autistic, history-loving, chronically online American tiktok cosplayer. Please let me know if I've gotten anything wrong and I will edit the post.
Reblog to spread awareness!
This is not just about Tiktok, and it's not about national security. The Tiktok ban is wrapped up in the "Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act" which has the ability to ban any foreign website or app that the United States government sees as a threat to their "democracy." Not only that, but if the gov't didn't want China to gather data, then they would ban things like Shein and Temu (the latter which they advertised during the Super Bowl), which collect similar data that Tiktok does. If they wanted to prevent our data being stolen in general, they would ban companies like Meta, which monetarily supports the Tiktok ban and had to change their name because "Facebook" was associated with the largest data leak in history.
The documentations of the Tiktok court interrogations prove how incompetent our government is. Repeatedly asking the TikTok CEO Mr. Chew if he's Chinese while he repeatedly assures them he's Singaporean. The officials being concerned that they can't find Singapore on a map. The officials then being confused why the app would be able to have access to their wifi because it needs wifi to load.
The possibility of the US buying Tiktok exposes a greater issue in America: monopolies. The Sherman Antitrust Act was passed in 1890 that restricted the activities of large companies known as monopolies, which started out as small companies and would either buy other companies or buy the factories which produced all their materials. This eliminated competition in the market and gave the monopolies almost full control of quality and prices of items, and it was considered very anti-American at the time. Since the US already has multiple major social medias, including Facebook (Meta), Instagram (Meta), Threads (Meta), X (formerly Twitter), Snapchat, and Reddit, adding Tiktok would mean that nobody could compete with the US in the social media market. This makes them a monopoly, and it's incredibly dangerous.
Banning Tiktok breaks several American trademarks. A) the Republicans banning Tiktok are very concerned about their second amendment right to own guns, but they seem to not care about the first amendment right to freedom of speech and press, which Tiktok delivers. Of course there are app guidelines, but for the most part you have fairly uncensored political and ethical commentary like no other social media. B) the only other countries that have banned Tiktok are either heavily demonized by America or are direct targets for American propaganda (ex. China), which really doesn't make the ban look good. C) banning a social media for the purpose of censorship is a trademark of communism, which Americans are INCREDIBLY wary of.
Your country may follow in suit. Because of America's influence as a global superpower and an ally to many other major powers, America banning Tiktok would likely lead to a domino effect in other countries.
The rich get richer. There is a concept called social darwinism, in which it is the rich's beliefs that the poor must fend for themselves without the help of the government in order to make a living - "survival of the fittest." Tiktok contributed around $14.7 billion USD in 2023 and $24.2 billion in 2024, and it supports around 224,000 jobs [source]. The actual Tiktok website says in 2023, they contributed $15 billion USD in revenue and supported 7 million US businesses [source]. Without these jobs, there could be in increase in homelessness, debt, and sickness due to withdrawals (if you're incredibly addicted to Tiktok) and lack of quick dopamine hits (due to the rapidfire nature of the algorithm).
Remember that the president is not your friend !! Many of the political figures rallying to support Tiktok right now, such as President Biden, initially voted for the ban. President Biden is likely supporting now so that Trump won't get credit for it, and future President Trump is likely doing it for brownie points among younger generations.
The Xiaohongshu migration exposed the American government and its lies. The stories from American 'Tiktok refugees' about the questions from native Chinese on the Xiaohongshu / Rednote / Redbook app (considered the Chinese mixed of Pinterest, Instagram, and Facebook) posed a lot of conspiracies and realizations about the American government. The Chinese actually own their homes, they have lower food prices than we do, and they have a slim homelessness rate. Whether this is true or not, it has greatly influenced how we see ourselves in the grand scheme of the American oligarchy, and that is not something that can be suppressed with an app being banned.
Tiktok is not totally Chinese! The CEO is Singaporean, as I've already stated, and there are multiple headquarters in the US, with the main one being in Los Angeles.
In conclusion...
Whether Tiktok is banned or not, whether permanently or not, no matter who saves it or rallies against it, remember that it is harder to scare and control someone when they are in a group. And if you think this was interesting, I'd love it if you could reblog to show some support and inform your friends as well. <3

Roman: Hey guys, today Remus pushed me, so I'm starting a Kickstarter to put him down.
Roman: The benefits of killing him would be I would get pushed way less.
Man US politics are fascinating right now and regardless of irritation or frustrations on party choices, its very very telling that people are wanting a more people-focused country which... duh? Nobody wants to praise the wealthy for getting more wealthy when you're struggling to eat. But its also really fascinating that you get our current president who made all these promises and failed every one of them, focusing solely on himself, and you get Mamdani who has been for the people and proves it with every choice being solely people-focused and managing to actively and efficiently improve things pretty rapidly? In a way people aren't used to seeing from progressive options?
And then from all sides you get politicians who are so corporate owned and money focused they don't even realize WHY people vote for socialist candidates.... because their promises say hey we care about you as a person and you as a people and its kind of hard to find fault with the candidates saying hey um what if we cared about making it affordable to live? What if we didn't think providing billions of tax dollars to foreign countries for wars we get nothing from? What if we cared about people's water and people's rent and people's child care?
And a ton of long established politicians from both sides who sit cushy on their high paychecks keep trying to make people afraid of them like oh no they're going to harm America!
How is caring about people and their needs going to harm America? Its not.
And like.... the Democratic Socialists of America put out this plan that's like hey what if we stopped gatekeeping politics and got rid of a system whoch has systematocally been makingnit harder for us to be heard and replace it with a system thay benefits the voices of the people, what if we made food and housing affordable what if we focused on free healthcare and free childcare and made places pretty and nice to live in what if we cared about grandma and grandpa what if we cared about our trees and our air what if we did cleaner energy so out homes would stop being on fire all the time?
And long established politicians on both sides are continuing to try and make it seem like that's a bad thing!
I know big change can be scary but like.... that sounds really good to me. It sounds good to have a good wage and not live in a world where your choices are constantly under attack. It sounds good to live in a world where you help and care for each other and stop being afraid all the time, where we don't have to ask why the fuck our politicians and leaders keep sending us to wars we don't get anything out of and lose good people's lives for no reason. I want to live in a world where we dont have to worry about gas prices and the prices of eggs and milk and bread, where you dont need to worry about one medical disaster ruining your entire family for generations because health care is a business not a right.
No matter how progressive or well-read you are, there are always going to be moments in your life where somebody pushes back against something that's so culturally ingrained you never even considered it before. And you'll say "Huh, it never occurred to me to challenge this but you're right" and that doesn't mean you were "morally toxic" before, it means you're a non-omniscient human capable of growth.
video game with a flaccid -> boner meter in the ui but the whole game it never changes at all and nothing makes the boner meter go up so youre jusg aware of the protags flaccid penis the whole time for no good reason
to be clear in my thinking this would only work in a completely nonsexual game, of course it Could have a function in some sort of porn game depending on the sorta porn youre going for but thats not really my idea here. this concept only works to me if its completely useless and unrelated & the protag isnt even sexualized even a little bit, otherwise i think it loses its charm. you just have to know about their penis and you have to wonder why the entire game and you have to try and figure that out until you realize theres no reason and youre just aware of their penis because the dev is probably fucked in the head or something like that. and then by that point youve reached the highest level of connection possible with a game developer aside from maybe ambushing them from behind and drinking all their blood until they die. and thats how we fix the gaming industry

digital selfharm is real. do NOT check up on that ex-partner/ex-friend. do NOT reread those old messages/conversations that you know will hurt your feelings all over again or that will otherwise make you feel like shit. do NOT block evade to see if you’re being talked about. inhale. exhale. let it pass and you’ll be better for it.
i really really really love the idea of eridians hearing absolutely everything in a human body and being able to predict an episode of something, similarly to how medical alert service dogs can
Yknow what's interesting is there technically hasn't been any indication that the orange eyes are specifically something that only happens to logan. Like as far as we know could just be a power like janus's hand trick, and any of the sides can get the orange eyes.

when logan's eyes turn orange it's actually Orange Logan co fronting with Logan. huh? oh, yeah, Logan split a second Logan. Yeah, having two of the same guy in one system sounds strange but it definitely happens. it's just Logan but more annoyed. he was repressing too much of his own feelings and so they split off. yeah, he calls himself Orange Logan. we tried to get him to pick a name to fit with the scheme but he doesn't want to.
imagine the canon orange side calls himself orange logan and hes just logan but with an orange filter over him and real logan is like “wtf why do you look like me” like the ‘hrt is awesome’ meme
