TikTok Ban: House Passes Bill That Would Outlaw App in U.S. Unless Its Chinese Parent Sells Ownership Stake
The U.S. House of Representatives passed a bill that would ban TikTok unless its Chinese owner, ByteDance, divests its interest in the app.
I’m not kidding. This will make Gen-Zers vote for Trump. All he has to say is he’ll reverse the ban. He’s already announced that he opposes this bill and that this only supports Facebook.
Biden and the Democrats are so fucking insane. I do not understand it. They want to lose all support with every fucking base they have.
I’ll never stop being on TikTok.

What a turbo autistic take this is (I’m not beating any allegations), but when I moved into my childhood home, my neighborhood and the internet were in similar areas in terms of development. There was still a ton of greenery, forest, wildlife, and ecosystems. Likewise, the internet was pretty barebones (although nothing like the internet I’ve heard about in the 90s). YouTube didn’t exist, yahoo (at least in my area) was the number one player, and I spent my life on nickelodeon.com. I definitely stumbled on some shit I had no business seeing as well (ahh those were the days)
Fast forward 20 years and there’s no green space in my childhood home besides decorative lawns and there is very limited wildlife. Similarly, the internet is highly restricted and its most visited sites treated like a fucking intranet. Now tik tok’s getting banned, so what does this mean for everything else?
Not sure how this little anecdote doesn’t illustrate how aimless progress without the needs of the people in mind doesn’t fuck everyone over.
