Why TikTok scares me

[aimless]

(I probably sound like a crazy conspiracist writing this thread, so watch this for a better explanation:

) To put it simply, TikTok is owned by ByteDance, who is backed by the CCP and many of its higher-ups.

Its’ algorithm is curated to your interests, learning about you, your likes, dislikes, or possibly even thoughts. There are hundreds of TikToks along the lines of,
‘has anybody else’s FYP been a little too accurate today? I’m talking thoughts that you haven’t said or anything, just thought to yourselves.’

The CCP has this information, and they’ve openly stated that they want the world to be ruled by the Chinese.

Y’see, the thing is, a few reports have shown that Gen Z’s attention span has already been reduced to the level of that of a goldfish, AND, while the western version of TikTok has a lot of degeneracy, with users stating their DoB as 13 and still having TikToks telling them to go to people’s OnlyFans pop up constantly, the CN version(Douyin) shows mostly positive content about the CCP in a good light, educational things, wholesome things, etc.


So while the west are on their phones, ‘sinking into depravity’, the Chinese, having gone from a third-world country to their current state, are getting smarter, more patriotic and more conditioned for war.


I genuinely dread what’s to come.

You’re pretty late to the party if you’re only now reaching this conclusion. I’ve been calling it a social weapon of mass destruction for a few years now.

To put it simply,

Might want to rephrase that.

True . . . True . . . Very true

This channel is also the one that said discord was the most evil business in the world lol...its an opinion channel. Pretty sure there are a lot worse stuff out there...

As with any social media app, do you really think tiktok is the only one collecting user data?

 

[Erysion]

Samsung exists.

 

[CupcakeNinja]

this isnt anything new and the west has done the same shit for decades too

I saw that one. Amusingly, the video didn't really go into detail about what made discord evil, just went on expounding about what other social media companies already do.

One look at my country and you'd know how powerful social media sites like TikTok are in conditioning people and revising an entire nation's history to favor a few.

Yeah. Try the entire US corporate media apparatus. Honestly, I think European and Australian news programs give more accurate information about American politics than US news stations do.

It's true the CCP is up to some FAR worse stuff, but I really don't think TikTok in particular holds a candle to the messed up stuff that any randomly picked US national news station gets up to.

 

[RepresentingSilence]

Conspiracy theory is just left speak for spoiler alert

 

[ThrillingHuman]

Oh no, social media is a tool for public control and programming of large political and financial organisations!


And the floor is made out of floor. Can't wait to see it all crashing down.

Not only of the CCP but the globalist cultural capitalist class that uses it as a means to culturally annihilate man until he has nothing. He will own nothing and will be happy. He will own nothing and endlessly consume and rent

I doubt the European part. But sky news Australia is pretty good. Being to the right of fox

Discord funds gender reassignment surgery which is basically always ends up with a person falling into steep depression

What’s your country. And all other truths of life

Mind geek the company behind Pornhub and other porn sites runs a whole quarry of human trafficking. So like it’s infinitely worse than discord funding sex reassignments

this isnt anything new and the west has done the same shit for decades too

You mean capitalist class.

My deepest condolence @Hans.Trondheim.

I'm pretty susceptible to peer pressure and downloaded Tiktok. Thing is, I don't get the hype around it. Everything is either cringe, girls dancing, or annoying edits.

 

[CarburetorThompson]

Honestly I’ve lost a lot of friends my age since I don’t use snapchat or TikTok and instead go on message boards like some boomer

Yes.

Stuff like this gets popular there

Thanks for that. I'll def need it when the police/military would start arresting us opposition supporters (No, really, I'm serious).

If I’m not mistaken Hans is from the Philippines

Yep, sadly. I don't know what grave sin I committed in my past life to be reincarnated as a Filipino, but for sure it's way too serious even Satan himself is balking.

Trump should have shut down tiktok, Twitter, instagram, Snapchat and all social media. Unironically.
