    Trade war*

    Tiktok got banned because useful idiots perpetuated FUD that only exists to make rich Americans richer. Let me say this again for those in the back: Tiktok was only banned because the American ruling class wanted the whole pie. If you ever said or believed “national security” or “privacy” concerns without evidence, I’m sorry. You fell for propaganda.

    Anyone who doesn’t understand this shouldn’t be taken seriously.

      Idk about that, but the rest sounds highly probable.

      I think it’s both. China does benefit from Americans’ attention and The Zuck & Co. are all jumping on the wagon to push out their competitor by raising their hypocritical fingers.
