    1. Never used it really anyway, but deleted the minute I heard about the takeover. Even though I know longer live in the US, not interested in being indoctrinated with MAGA propoganda and will avoid it wherever possible (seems easier said than done these days). What’s so sad is how many young people are going to become SERIOUSLY fucked up – racist, classist, uneducated, etc. – because of this, which is, of course, exactly what Trump and his cronies want.

    2. Free and radical thinking has always been a threat to fascist dictatorships, so not surprised he feels threatened in the slightest.

      And that’s despite TikTok’s algorithm actively suppressing pro-Palestine and pro-LGBTQIA+ voices.

      I’m good with this.  TikTok will cease to exist.  Something else will certainly pop up.  But it’ll be nice

      Tell me again how its the “left” who are repressing free speech? 

      (Dear reader, its not the left)

      I fear for the future of this platform, and other non partisan platforms like blue sky and Mastodon, because, if they arent run by people in his pocket, he will go after them, threaten them with bans, or shut downs until they are run by people he can control.

      State run social media and almost state run media networks.  History reminds us, this is textbook fascism.

    5. Don’t they already have Truth Social or whatever the fuck it is?

      How many god damn social media platforms do republicans think they need? I also like how Republicans think anyone gives a fuck about what they have to say on some trash social media app.

    6. is tiktok US going to become it’s own app? i don’t really understand how they would change tiktok this much but only for the US? even just the takeover how does that work?

      curious as someone not residing in the US. 

    7. I love the suggestion that it’s already so Maga that it just needs a lil tweak to make it 100% Maga.

      NO this is super concerning bc the party of pedo protectors want to takeover an app that is largely used by teenagers [where the content creators are predominantly teenagers]. I don’t think that traffic will slow down, because TickTock addiction is widespread

    9. seeing ‘MAGA’ repulses me at this point. not that i ever liked it, but that collection of letters genuinely makes me sick to think about after the last decade+ we have lived through
