I used to be neutral on the ban until I read about their politically-motivated content moderation and how they push certain narrative into people’s feeds.
None of them have been as aggressive as TikTok. Most US social media companies have failed to curtail right wing bigots but that a separate conversation from TikTok tbh

Like every other media outlet, or publisher? I could not care less about what they are pushing, it will be abused.
Are we still talking about TikTok or is it Facebook/Twitter/every US social media site?

Links? What kind of “politically-motivated content”?
I’m pretty sure they’re banning TikTok because reality/truth tends to disillusion the youth and liberate the oppressed.
