"less often discussed is TikTok’s power to radically distort the world-picture that America’s young people encounter" LMAO they really do hate competition, don't they?

No censorship. Also, Hawley is an ass.

We should have a republican bingo whenever they say anything

• Think of children ✔️
• Security of the nation ✔️
• Censor opinions I don't agree with ✔️

I thought these guys were against cancel culture?

Yeah whatever. American politicans say this like every few months.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., asked the Biden administration Tuesday to ban TikTok in part because of how the app has handled content about the Israel-Hamas war.

“While data security issues are paramount, less often discussed is TikTok’s power to radically distort the world-picture that America’s young people encounter,” he wrote.

In recent weeks, TikTok has come under new scrutiny from members of Congress and tech investors who say the platform favors pro-Palestinian content.

The perceived performance of pro-Palestinian content on the platform depends on how you parse TikTok’s data, according to an NBC News review of hashtags related to the conflict.

“Our Community Guidelines apply equally to all content on TikTok and we strongly reject any of the baseless claims to the contrary.

The Biden administration has been negotiating a potential security agreement with TikTok to try to address data privacy concerns it’s expressed about the app.

Honesty they don't actually care. There is more then enough evidence that something needs to be done about TikTok and they pick the dumbest ones to actually bring attention too( or just the ones that directly effect them).

I can't take the same people who ignore how much TikTok and Instagram enable actual pedophiles (and who go after weebs instead) seriously when they dare say think of the children.

Because they want you to vote in some new bill with ten million bolted on laws that have nothing to do with protecting kids.

Seriously TikTok spread a mass infection of a crazy mental illness similar to Tourettes. And the list goes on.

Sorry for the rant I'm just sick of these people on all sides of the political spectrum.

Also if you're getting your political opinions from TikTok then I think you have deeper problems then a ban would solve.
