Relax nobody is taking away your TikToks
TikTok isn’t your “right”, and if you say that banning tiktok is talking away your rights, TikTok’s taking away people’s lives
it would be one thing if they were actually going to ban it, but the plan is pretty plainly for deep state establishment to seize it so that the US government can do all the awful things that they're accusing the Chinese government of doing. Remember y'all, the difference between information and propaganda is "Do I like the person who is currently speaking?" and nothing more.
If it truly was a "free speech platform" the ownership wouldn't matter either way, right?

I'm starting to fly down some 'conspiracy hole' about this shit: I can't trust or even hope that the avalanche of memes like these aren't Chinese (or Russian? they love stirring our shit up for the lulz) in origin. This paranoia reinforces itself in a loop
