Not only that but Mark Zuckerberg was there in the audience and watched the UFC fight. And probably saw when that guy yelled in the mic that Michelle Obama is a man.

It's time to get off of TikTok TrumpTok.

TikTok wants users to believe that errors blocking uploads of anti-ICE videos or direct messages mentioning Jeffrey Epstein are due to technical errors—not the platform seemingly shifting to censor content critical of Donald Trump after he hand-picked the US owners who took over the app last week. However, experts say that TikTok users’ censorship fears are justified, whether the bugs are to blame or not. Ioana Literat, an associate professor of technology, media, and learning at Teachers College, Columbia University, has studied TikTok’s politics since the app first shot to popularity in the US in 2018. She told Ars that “users’ fears are absolutely justified” and explained why the “bugs” explanation is “insufficient.” “Even if these are technical glitches, the pattern of what’s being suppressed reveals something significant,” Literat told Ars. “When your ‘bug’ consistently affects anti-Trump content, Epstein references, and anti-ICE videos, you’re looking at either spectacular coincidence or systems that have been designed—whether intentionally or through embedded biases—to flag and suppress specific political content.”

Why do you think Trump was so eager to have TikTok American owned? What he was really angling to do is get it MAGA owned.

Some users are already choosing to leave TikTok. A quick glance at the TikTok subreddit shows many users grieving while vowing to delete the app, Literat pointed out, though some are reportedly struggling to delete accounts due to technical issues. Even with some users blocked from abandoning their accounts, however, “the daily average of TikTok uninstalls are up nearly 150 percent in the last five days compared to the last three months,” data analysis firm Sensor Tower told CNN. [ ... ] TikTok USDS likely wants to distance itself from Trump’s comments about making the app more MAGA. But new owners have deep ties with Trump, including Larry Ellison, the chief technology officer of Oracle, whom some critics suggest has benefited more than anyone else from Trump’s presidency. Greene noted that Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner, is a key investor in Silver Lake. Both firms now have a 15 percent stake in the TikTok USDS joint venture, as well as MGX, which also seems to have Trump ties. CNBC reported MGX used the Trump family cryptocurrency, World Liberty Financial, to invest $2 billion in Binance shortly before Trump pardoned Binance’s CEO from money laundering charges, which some viewed as a possible quid pro quo.

Get off of ALL Trump broligarch platforms. Don't bore me with lame excuses why you are still there. You are supporting MAGA just by being on Twitter/X, Facebook, Instagram, Threads, WhatsApp, and now TikTok.

Don’t take “national security” as an excuse for the TikTok ban, don’t. It’s about suppressing the voices of millions of Americans. It’s about suppressing our voices. It’s so we can’t connect to the outside world and inform ourselves on the world around us. It’s so billionaires don’t have any competition in the social media industry, so the rich get richer. The ban is so much more than just “aww man no more edits”, it’s so much more than “no more silly videos”. As we’re seeing RIGHT NOW, our first amendment rights are being violated. Don’t go to Instagram, that’s what they want you to do, they want you to use their app. Don’t, don’t give them the satisfaction. Do your responsibility as a citizen, and stay informed.
