UPDATE 1/19: TikTok UNBANNED "THANKS TO PRESIDENT TRUMP AND ONLY PRESIDENT TRUMP, WE'RE BACK!"

[Micky Mikey]

People more concerned about some stupid fukking app and not our entire social media ecosystem about to turn into 24/7 right wing propaganda. Only content favorable to Trump and the agendas of our techo-oligarchs will accessible

Trump on truth social:

There isn’t going to be a JV between the US and the current owners.

That shyt doesn’t even make any fukking sense. This guy just wakes up and starts talking out of his ass.

 

[Torrential]

This shyt has nothing to do with data security. Y'all don't think the government could have created some VPN/Encryption tunneling to encrypt US user data. They could have worked with Oracle to implement that... before its relayed back to China

This move is 100% political , showing an uncensored unbiased view of global conflicts that can't be buried. If Biden or Trump don't like certain social media content they can call Zuckerberg or Elon and scream at them to censor it or bury it. With TikTok that algorithm will never be swayed to make Israel or the US look good

 

[Absolut]

What did Biden do wrong?

What did he do right?

 

[Spatial Paradox]

Lost in all of this chatter is the fact that Americans collectively didn't pay any attention to this until today got closer and closer and all of the options to keep the law from going into effect got exhausted. We don't pay any attention and then get surprised and angry when something like this happens, rather than fukking paying attention to what Congress is doing and pressing our representatives when things like this are coming up for votes.

I've been telling friends and family repeatedly for the past year and a half that TikTok could get bushed soon because of the bills in Congress. The bill that got signed into law last year was floating around in Congress in different forms for a good while before that, and there were a lot of signs years ago that it was going to end up on Biden's desk eventually.

Americans aren't serious in part because we're not civically engaged and that makes it easy for whoever's in power to pull shyt like this

Man’s thought Biden looked good in the debate and calling others idiots

Reading your takes about politics sounds like you are the tard. Absolutely delusional on the landscape

You don't understand a single thing about politics. You just started following politics when Trump came around.

You remind me of the German citizens in 1930.

You thought Biden was cooking during the debate chief. Absolutely special needs

50% ownership...There it is folks

the but-but national security arguments

No, I said Biden made some valid points underneath the stuttering and stammering. But I don't expect an idiot like you to understand nuance. You are a braindead idiot who needs to be told what to think and how to feel Just like the Germans. That's why you view Trump as your savior.

This sad

It's a fukking social media app...

This country needs an enema

This type of posting shows how out of touch y'all are .

It's 2025 and y'all acting like almost everybody doesn't use social media globally in some capacity when we're in a digital information age.

 

[NaijaProdigy Redux]

We went from being told that ByteDance / TikTok is an arm of the CCP to the President-Elect proposing a JV with an adversarial nation

I have no words for how stupid this timeline is
