“that he or somebody else American will buy TikTok so it is not shut down.”
That is exactly what DC wants. To force TikTok to sell to an American so DC can force them to cooperate with the NSA/CIA, and be subject to US police state scrutiny.
DC is enraged that it’s something they cannot control. Zuckerburg hates it because it’s a superior product that is blowing Instagram away. So he called his congressmen to do something about his competition.
The same idiots lecturing us about national security are the ones just fine with Instagram and Google data mining with wild abandon, with open borders, with a massive Ukrainian lobbyist group in DC, with 5 eyes.
If they shut down TikTok, it’ll inspire the American people to protest against our masters in D.C. Well, Gen Z anyway. They’re addicted to TikTok and they don’t use Facebook because it’s a lame product and it’s controlled by Zuck.
