    I hate this mentality. The government is actively censoring what Americans can say and what they can see

    Too many people are okay with it because they, personally, do not like the platform

    It’s not about TikTok, it’s about the government controlling the narrative on political topics

      It’s technichally fascism. Oracle bought it so they could censor on behalf of the government. Its exactly what Musk did with Twitter.

      See number 6. https://public.websites.umich.edu/~rsc/Editorials/fascism.html

      The owners or executives of those platforms can show whatever content they like per the 1st admentment. They arent breaking any laws that im aware of. I hate it, but its their right.

      So, there is no real legal recourse that I know of, and thats why i say no one needs tiktok.
