    So providing the context/source = promoting it? Do you think people are going to see the descriptor text and say, “Finally!This meme made me decide to finally download TikTok!” Doubtful. Everyone and their momma (literally) knows about TikTok. It doesn’t need advertising. I think you’re doing more to draw attention to it and thus Streissanding the thing anyhow.

    If you want people to visit tiktok then you cite tiktok, if you dont want people to use it then don't fucking cite tiktok

    TikTok users dont give af about attribution or they wouldnt be making short form content on a fucking Chinese Military Psyop. An image with text won't cause people to search for a video source on its own.

    TikTok is a weapon, never credit it for anything.
