In a rare move for a Hollywood star, Ashton Kutcher has issued a warning about China, saying Beijing could use TikTok to influence the minds of Americans when it comes to issues like Taiwan and the South China Sea.
Ashton Kutcher made the comments during a recent appearance on “American Optimist,” the YouTube channel run by entrepreneur and investor Joe Lonsdale.
“If I’m China and I want to create a problem in that area of the world, specifically a naval problem in that area of the world, in the South China Sea, I would probably want to utilize TikTok in order to influence the minds of Americans in a anti-U.S. propaganda, anti-Taiwanese propaganda effort in order to make any kind of war from the United States extraordinarily unpopular,” Kutcher said.
Watch below:
TikTok is owned by China’s ByteDance. Last year, then-President Donald Trump sought to ban the social media app unless it was acquired by an American company. But President Joe Biden has taken a lenient attitude toward China and revoked Trump’s proposed ban.
“My sense as a fervent American is that it’s getting extraordinarily dangerous for not just individuals but for the country at large,” Kutcher added.

Not that I have any love for TikTok, but this is coming from the same Kelso who mounted his own propaganda effort in 2012 by producing that skin crawling video with other Hollywood parasites pledging to be a servant to Bathhouse Barry:

I’ve always thought Bruce Willis paid-off Ashton to keep Demi under control.
There was no other reason for him to be with her.

He plays a stoner idiot but didn’t he have some science degree in college or did he never graduate?
We shouldn’t even be listening to him concerning our national security which is completely hosed.
Last year reports of police abuses and human rights violations in America were pushed online by Chinese and Iranian state media.
We are hosed.
The Left are evil and their supporters are idiots.

Chinese Consulate in Houston Intervened in US Political Movement
Those technicians used [TikTok] to identify people who might participate in the Black Lives Matter (BLM) and ANTIFA’s protests and then created and sent them customized videos on how to organize riots and how to do promotions.
The purpose was to “weaponize” big data technology. It delivered relevant materials precisely to those people who were most likely to participate in the protests, while other people could not even find those videos.
Thus Trump closed the Chinese Consulate in Houston and deported the 30+ Chinese Communist Party spies.
Dude, where’ve you been?
