US leftist websites are poisoning our children’s minds.

If that is the criteria then they should be banned as well.

That is hardly a position supporting China.

If they wanted to ban kids from all social media or stop all websites from stealing your data it would at least make some sense. Singling out just one company is pointless , especially since some “cool” new site will just pop up in a few years anyways when kids get bored of tik tok.
I’ve posted this in other threads but I still think the government is going after tik tok because it’s the only mainstream social media app that doesn’t give a back door access to our government to spy on Americans and doesn’t go along with our government’s censorship (like with covid or stolen elections) since it’s run out of China

Facebook was "cool" 20 years ago. Now grandparents are using it.

Everyone in congress should sign up for Tik Tok and post dance videos. A lot of them are grandparents and they will make tik tok uncool so kids stop using it

Funny. That is what brought people to TikTok at the beginning. But now the platform has evolved. A lot of MAGA content over there. So really it's more like YouTube now but with shorter videos.

What needs doing is what Chinese do in China...BAN inappropriate crap

Our government no longer deserves that much power. They have proven over and over again they will misuse it.

Exactly. Our founding fathers would never have given our government that much power in the first place.

But most of our Republicans suck. Rand Paul gets it. Who else?

meanwhile Zuckerberg gets away with interfering in politics outside of US as well as inside US!

6 March: Sky News Australia: EXCLUSIVE: Bombshell dossier of SECRET emails proves Mark Zuckerberg’s Facebook fact checking program has been compromised by activists
The fact-checking director who oversees Mark Zuckerberg’s misinformation program on Facebook has been caught in secret emails colluding with a now disgraced operation which suppressed journalism during Australia’s Voice referendum. READ THE EMAILS.
by Jack Houghton
International Fact Checking Network Director Angie Holan runs the body which certifies Facebook fact checkers and has the power to investigate allegations of bias and strip fact checkers of certification in the event rules are broken.

Meta publicly told Australians Ms Holan’s organisation would launch a “thorough investigation” into RMIT fact checkers but secret emails obtained by Sky News show that did not happen...

RMIT FactLab was suspended from fact checking on Facebook after a Sky News Australia investigation in August found the operation was filled with partisan activists who used their powers to censor journalism on Facebook they disagreed with, particularly in relation to the Voice referendum....

FRiends...the proposed bill DOES NOT BAN TIKTOK!!

It gives the President to ban any app that he deems a threat to national security.

Rumble and X are the real targets.
