people on tik tok routinely put gargamel on front street. banning it wont put the toothpaste back in the tube its too late

Economic and social protectionism has been a thing throughout American history. Never mind we are in a soft Cold War with China.china doesn't brand itself a purveyor of free speech and free markets.
Yup. The Senate passes this and China basically has complete control of the outcome of our 2024 Presidential Election.
People saying "It's not a ban bill!"
Yes it is.
If it passes, the CHOICES are TikTok either sells it or we delist and ban it.
However, ByteDance has said they are not going to sell it.
Additionally, China's government can FORCE ByteDance to not sell.
So even if they wanted to sell it China can say NOPE.
This is basically FORCING the U.S to ban it completely and make people mad at Democrats and Biden.
No way the Senate passes it because they know this. Lowkey, Biden knows this as well and knows they won't pass it.
Ya'll don't think they've considered this? The bill is dead in the water.
It's about time we quit acting like it's different sides. Clearly a lot of elected officials are compromised by AIPAC and a few other lobby's. But the ADL is the one who put the hit out on TIK TOK they were just able to use China as the big bad guy. Same reason they keep talking about Russia interfering in our elections when we clearly interfere in other nations, we also have a foreign nation Israel who constantly talks about how the politicians they pay for remain in office.I think the resistance will grow at this point to it to be honest. It's a little different when the consequences are staring them in the face.
Maybe House Dems know it won't get by Senate.
Who knows what happens, but I do know they might get rolled on election time if this shyt passes and Biden is the sole face of killing TikTok.
Then Trump, Project 2025, etc.
At this point you basically are in decent (but not great) shape going into the election. Too much added risk.
You must account for Trump turning up the loudmouth volume and if you give him this shyt to run with it's straight up a bullhorn while Republicans still have Elon/Twitter to gas up their supporters.
Wikileaks and other diplomatic leaks revealed that America has access to all our communications via US social media companies. If Chinese companies gain ground, America will lose its global spying advantage.
As an American citizen, wouldn’t you prefer China having access over a government that can arrest you? The Chinese can’t reach over the Pacific. Biden/Congress are afraid of losing full spectrum dominance.
Cut the BS. You and your ilk are just mad that tiktok didn't censor pro palestinian contents throughout the war like zionists wanted
Even the entire premise of your post is dog whistle hinting at that otherwise expand on what you mean by the bolded
What specifically is the brainwashing
Coli Nikkas will stop at nothing to keep those twerk videos flowing
But seriously
This is about stopping the biggest manifestation of white supremacy in the world today - the United States of America which is right now:
- Facilitating genocide in Palestine;
- Stealing companies like Tik Tok;
- Arming neo Nazis in Ukraine (Azov Battalion and Right Sector); and
- Formulating a plan to keep Haiti under its thumb
Shhhh no logic about the crumbling empire,
You know what you gotta do, bad boy
