Damn you … I shot coffee out my nose with that. 😂

Comes in flavours, likkok orange, and likkok red.

Like the backpedaling of Trump's T1 phone to initially be claimed as "Made in America" until being publicly called out, not only by inquisitive people but also by a company furthest along in producing a fully "Made in USA" phone. The T1 phone marketing has been relegated to featuring a "proudly American" design.

It wasn't always purely right wing propaganda, they want it full right wint propaganda,

Yeah I thought this deal happened months ago. I guess now they're being public about it.

Before it was a vague sinophobic conspiracy theory pushed by big tech and other fascists... Now it's a reality.

I’m pretty active on there and my entire feed is academic and thoughtful left-leaning commentary. Granted I had to work at curating it. Day one was all thirst traps. But now I really enjoy it. I will actually be sad when it becomes unusable.

It’s like people forgot about that.

Dude Facebook hasn't been cool in a decade and it's still very much a thing

You're underestimating the propaganda machine . All those right-wing influencers didn't get to the top of every chart because young people decided them to be popular.

Wouldn't it be cool if people used loops instead!

Hopefully someone spins up a competitor

Done and done.

You have to use words like "unalive" and it's still popular?

True for us 1%ers, nobody else seems to give a fuck.

"you sweet, summer child"

if you fuck it up they will bail for another platform

They might also start using another platform. But they’re unlikely to leave completely.

Cory Doctorow put out the first hour of the audiobook on Enshittification for free, and it covers this very well.

And the reason the Democrats and Republicans wanted to kill Tick Tock was Israel. Because we have an Israel first policy just because they have video footage of our lawmakers having sex with kids and their business Pals as well.

It is being sold to Larry Ellison, one of the biggest donors to Israel. So you bet TikTok is going to be filled with IDF thirst trap propaganda soon.

A lot of us are too poor to get out. Don't think Canada is taking political refugees just yet :/

The crackdown on the left is just beginning

lol bruh they erased the left like 80 years ago.

I'm just hoping we don't get to the point where I feel compelled to leave.

In the meantime, I'm looking for parts of the world where I could live for an extended period of time in case the worst happens. I don't think we'll get there, but it's always good to have a backup plan.

Myself and most of my family are fleeing next week, and I’m still worried that this infection will spread to where we’re going. They want this to be global.

There was never a left in USA, buddy.

It will lose its luster when there is a noticeable political slant.

Tiktok's popularity is already going downhill, so it checks out.

A lot more than America becomes fucked when tiktok becomes owned by these guys. It'll become their global platform to radicalize youth Nazis from one corner of the globe to another. Time to hope the youth outside America are smart enough to see thorough this, but if our recent Canadian election was any indication then they are not.

Nazi content is already insanely popular on tiktok. There is Minecraft edits with slogans like "take back the west" and a sonnenrad in the background getting millions of views. Nick Funetes an open Nazi does numbers.

The platform is a cesspit and can't get any worse.

*An official letter, signed by at least three colleagues.

Schmuck Schumer is hard at work, editing his last one, so we don't think it's the same one.

Jokes on him, nobody is paying any attention to him anyway. He could give the same speech every time, and nobody would even notice.

What a loser. If we aren't going to kick him out, just ignore him, and let him get back to his insider trading. That's his only priority anyway. He might as well be a MAGA.

If we're lucky they'll do something that speaks to the youth, like doing Tiktok dances in protest

And they will even threaten to wag their fingers!

Voters made sure they can't do anything else.
