    That’s been proven not to be true, tiktok us matches all the other us social media and tiktok china matches all the other Chinese social media.

    US social media is full of greed, scams, flexing, crypto pyramid schemes, and lowest common denominator trash because that’s what American culture has been overwhelmed with for decades - did tiktok shit over the history channel? Did they invent MTV? Is it there fault the only movies that are made are comic book repeats?

    Just finding a foreigner to blame has been an incredibly popular strategy so through history but it never actually solves the problem at hand it just obscures it so no one ever tries anything effective

      If that’s been proven then you should be able to cite the source of the proof right? Please go ahead.

      Foreigner…? Reading this as a non-Chinese and non-US American is quite baffling. Are these the only two countries in your world?

        So you really not understand what I’m saying? I’m also from neither of those countries but the conversation is about them, acting like China is the evil influence that makes American social media bad is silly when all other American social media is the same.
