Tiktok left up the "how to steal Kia" tutorials, correct?

My answer is that this country lacks personal accountability and it is trickling down to everything and seeping into every facet of life
So can you point to another country that has all this personal accountability where kids aren't being ruined by social media?

Banning tiktok doesn't put a dent in sm, no matter how bad sm culture needs to go.

The bigger problem is how much influence outside nations and companies have on our populace. The tiktok sold to America is not the tiktok circulated in China, the same way the Chinese food we eat in America is not the Chinese food eaten in China. The CCP, owns tiktok.....the same CCP that constantly lauches cyberattacks on worldwide....the same CCP that has been stealing American trade secrets, and IP, for decades. Why are we letting them into our houses, willingly?



The prospect that the app will be banned has thrust Jeff Yass, the trading mastermind behind market-maker Susquehanna International Group, into an uncomfortable spotlight. That’s because he owns a stake in TikTok’s parent company, ByteDance, that’s worth $15 billion, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, the largest single asset in his $40.8 billion fortune.

The US has allowed China to purchase 30% of its farm land which affects our food, is that not a national security risk?

Social media is a great tool to stay up on what's going on around you.

However, most people do not use it properly so they tend to get a lot of bullshyt in their feeds and what not.

And your kids are not fukked up because of social media, they're fukked up because you're not using the parental controls that exist on damn near every electronic device that connects to the Internet, because you're fukking lazy and think your child is everyone's responsibility despite you willingly deciding to have one.

This country, despite getting older, needs to grow the fukk up.

There’s truth to what you’re saying, but it’s not as easy it’s just turning on parental controls. Especially when your children spend most of their active time away from home and out of your sight.

Just the ride on the bus to and from school is like a teenage think tank for dumb shyt kids see on social media.

Not that I think banning TikTok is a super important issue, but just in reference to what you said.

The challenge to tik Tok under began when Trump was in office it's not a new thing because of Israel. It was proposed for the same reasons back then.
Of course US government is collecting data. The obvious issue is China doing it to US citizens.

Gen z can share their same views on a new platform. Taking this away doesn't end anything but Tik Tok. We been in the social media era long enough to know there's never a lack of apps. Something else will come by and resume where the last thing left off. People have not been sensored. Social Media companies have actually been mandated regarding news shares and news corps themselves now want a cut for shared shyt on social. The "mainstream" media won't be taking over. User based submitted content for Gen z like it did Facebook for the flabby n sick.

Once again, if your child is seeing or engaging in stupid shyt when you're not around, that is YOUR problem not mine.

If it's your kid doing the dumb shyt, it's YOUR problem

If it's your kid emulating the kids doing the dumb shyt, it's also YOUR problem

Ok, who is objectively more of a threat to U.S citizens with that data, china or the U.S government?





They spy on one another’s citizens and share the collected information with each other in order to circumvent restrictive domestic regulations on surveillance of citizens.

If that’s how you feel then that’s fine. But you should have said that first instead of that half-baked “solution” you gave before. That mindset is just not great for progress or growth.

But based on the tone of this response it seems like you might be a miserable person who only cares about himself anyway. And to that I say, live your life the way you want.
