Lawmaker: TikTok must “sever relationship with the Chinese Communist Party.”
Lawmaker: TikTok must “sever relationship with the Chinese Communist Party.”
America already controls Tiktok’s data via Oracle server farms in Virginia, so that automatically doesn’t track; make it make sense. Why is there a need to ban them that DOESN’T boil down to the usual anglo pearlclutching trying to start new Yellow Perils and Red Scares? And why haven’t Twitter, Meta, Instagram, or Trust Social been banned yet? Make. It. Make. Sense.
I’m from the EU, where there’s laws in place for some industries to put EU user data exclusively on servers that are in the EU. I’m assuming that the US doesn’t have that kind of law applying to TikTok, and that the US servers are an infrastructure decision by Tiktok’s owner company. If I’m right, then that’s your answer. If I’m wrong then they really don’t need to ban them.
For the record, please keep in mind that I’m not defending any party here. I’m very aware of post cold war yellow/red scare stories, I just don’t see how this inevitably has to be the consequence of one.
Then you’re clearly not paying attention; but that’s to be expected of a Five Eyes vassal ig. You can say you’re ‘not defending any party’ all you like, the very geopolitical viewpoint you’ve been propagandized into does that for you.
WTF are you calling me?
They’re being a bit antisocial and I don’t defend that, but they’re referencing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_Eyes , an intelligence agreement among the anglosphere, and then saying you’re from a vassal state of that alliance (really just a vassal of the US).
So “ig” means “inhabitant” somehow?
It means “i guess” you absolute boomer jfc
So you’re calling me a vassal, you dork.
As a member of a vassal state, it makes sense to thereby call the citizens vassals.
I’m only ever really antisocial against anglo bullshit anymore and this thread is full of it.
Socialists should seek to be pro-social in all contexts. Being bitter won’t help you do anything but preach to the choir.
