In what should be a surprise to absolutely no one, the Chinese spyware app that doubles as a Chinese propaganda app is promoting antisemitism and anti-Israel disinformation and feeding that content to young, impressionable Americans.
TikTok, a Chinese spyware app that funnels user data to a Chinese company that is directly allied with the Chinese Communist Party, is boosting “pro-Palestinian” content in the aftermath of Hamas’s massacre of 1,400 civilians in Israel. Antisemitic, pro-terrorist content on TikTok has regularly gone viral as “pro-Palestine” posts outnumber pro-Israel posts by a massive margin.
KEEP ISRAEL, UKRAINE, AND THE SOUTHERN BORDER SEPARATE
None of this is a surprise. Antisemitic content spreads regularly through China’s heavily censored internet and through Chinese state media. TikTok’s algorithm promotes dangerous and violent “challenges” to American users, including car theft and property damage, so it stands to reason that it would also be promoting antisemitic, pro-terrorist content to American users after an American allied country was attacked by terrorists.
Now, the Biden administration is “warily monitoring” how the Chinese propaganda app’s algorithm is boosting anti-Israel content to young Americans. Of course, this is the same Biden administration that has embraced TikTok as a campaign tool, has frequently invited TikTok “influencers” to the White House, and even floated the idea of having a special TikTok room in the White House as a TikTok-specific “briefing space” where popular users could have “more consistent access to the president.”

At some point, it should be clear that TikTok is nothing more than an extension of the Chinese Communist Party that allows it to peddle propaganda and promote destructive behavior to children while also leeching data from their devices (more so than any other social media app) and saving it for the CCP. If the pro-terrorism, “pro-Palestine” content and disinformation haven’t done it for you, the app bypassing Google and Apple protections or the app’s parent company spying on American journalists should have already.
We know what TikTok is and what it is doing to the country, particularly to young Americans. We also know that Biden, and most of the Democratic Party, are too scared of young voters to ban the app despite knowing that it would be the responsible thing to do. If we haven’t crossed the threshold yet, what would it take to do so?
I wonder if that has anything to do with the fact that TikTok is one of the most widely used and least censored apps in the world and there are 1.8 billion Muslims in the world and only 15 million Jews? It would make perfect sense that there would be more pro-Hamas posts.
Do you think TikTok should censor the pro-Hamas posts?
It is always hilarious to me that conservatives understand that when "racist" or "sexist" or "homophobic" or "Islamophobic" is used in an argument, it usually means that the other side doesn't have a very convincing case.
For some reason, when conservatives hear "antisemitic" in an argument they gnash their teeth and tear their clothes and and immediately take the side of poor victims of antisemitism.
I doubt TikTok is responsible for the pro-Palestinian content. The algorithms just feed you similar content of whatever you’ve been watching. And the anti-Israel perspective of the younger generation has been around for some time. A close friend of mine mentioned to me 7-8 years ago how his leftist daughter was anti-Israel and she’s half Jewish.
There was another group of people some years ago, who hated the Jews as much as this Antisemitic group... I think it was called Germany...
No, TikTok is not responsible, but those who own it and want the US destroyed probably are.
Maybe the millions of Jews who have been slaughtered by good folks for the last 2000 years has something to do with it. Pogroms have been prominent in every part of the earth. It can and will happen here. That is the difference. It is happening on our campuses with our future leaders being indoctrinated. We need to find out who is sponsoring this unrest. Hamas, Qatar, and others have spent more than a billion in organizing in Western countries, including the US. China has infiltrated our society in every sector, especially in Education. https://thehill.com/opinion/international/541196-china-has-already-infiltrated-americas-institutions/ So yes, Conservatives get a little nervous when they see how our society has been infiltrated by foreign destabilization elements, particularly on our campuses.
It surprises me. I expected the Chinese to take a neutral, wait and see attitude.
It’s not just CCPTok. I started to follow many more Jewish-related and war related people on Instagram in the last monht. My feed is full of Islamist propaganda. When I answered some of it, I lost my ability to post replies for two weeks anywhere.
