Scary US is scary…
Why can i never see catbox images?
Hasn’t even been sworn in yet, and they’re already sucking him off for doing nothing.
Tankies put this one together: china, your favourite little dictatorship, is helping out your most hated almost dictatorship? How is that possible. I thought china was a chad anti usa amd imperialism state. Or maybe theyre also imperalists and just jumped on trumps dick the moment they saw they could profit from it.
Careful with that strawman, breathe on it and it’ll fall over
It was so odd that they didnt mention him in their goodbye as he was the one who started that train a rolling
Also odd that they self banned, Biden explicitly said he wasn’t bothering to enforce.
So TikTok blocked themselves just to suck up to Trump.
they did mention him :/
this was the first message that came before the one in OP
OP meant that it’s odd they didn’t blame him for being the reason that a law banning the app was even considered, since he started that train rolling while he was in office.
nah i get it i was just adding more sad snark. thanx for adding clarity tho :3
If you think it’s bad now, look again in 4 years.
I’m particularly looking forward to “No no no no” playing over the top of a video of an ICE raid goon smashing a mother of three in the face with the butt of his rifle for trying to protect her kids, while that horrid robotic woman’s voice says “get out of America bitch”.
While usually i would say that you are completely insane if you write something so deranged, in this case you basically wrote down something that probably happened and will happen multiple other times. The tone is completely justified as well
Oh look, dems are back to caring about ICEs, about time. So, time to stop calling “tankies” those opposing concentration camps for immigrants?
Oh look, a tankie telling people to stop calling people tankies.
Fuck off tankie.

Imagine thinking that this is propaganda but that banning TikTok was perfectly reasonable. Lib shit.
lib anything
This is how people know you’re as dumb as a loaf of bread.
It is propaganda when the person who caused the problem solved the problem then expects an applause.
It was Trump who proposed the fucking ban in the first place. I guess he can save us from himself!?
i have not seen anyone who thinks that but if those people exist please respond to them instead of me, thanks
Everyone is saying this is propaganda. I think its possible there’s an even stupider reason.
Trump is so nakedly easy to manipulate sometimes. This might be the ego fluffing he needs to reverse the ban.
He’d basically do anything you want if you put a nickel in his pocket. He’s for sale.
This is so transparent… Trump isn’t even president yet, there’s nothing he could have done… The whole shut down and return is a stunt to make Trump look like a hero
Yes, the shutdown was a stunt.
Just like the Gaza ceasefire, this is just more political theatrics to make Trump look like a strong negotiator lmao.
Too bad people don’t realize he’s a fucking sellout to other psychopathic nations from Russia and China, to Israel.
Sorry to nitpick but Israel isn’t a “nation”. It’s more of an cult terror regime like ISIS.
to other psychopathic
nationsleadersSorry to nitpick. I know you didn’t mean it this way. I just think that characterizing entire nations shifts the blame and reduces accountability, so I’d rather we specify who the psychos are, preferably by name. And I only say this as someone who has been on the receiving end and think to myself, “wait a second, this is a person I voted against and it’s their stupid decisions, not mine!”
Glad everyone is pointing out how much this reeks of propaganda.
I’m on the other Bandwagon … sorry to be pedantic, but this is not American propaganda, this is Trump self-aggrandizement, or maybe fluffing his ego to kanipulate him. It’s an important distinction with the type of “leadership” my fellow citizens voted for
I guess we can’t even blame them. The app got to thwart the ban by appealing to Trump; gotta keep those wheels greased.
If you think this propaganda is bad, you should’ve seen the endless and ongoing propaganda that led up to the TikTok ban.
keep repeating it and don’t stop. im already seeing tiktok users saying they aren’t coming back. and i think that’s a good response.
new tic tok challenge dropped, delete tic tok (impossible)
can’t delete what you never had in the first place.
This shows you how bad the propaganda attempt went. They should have left it gone long enough to hurt, so people would really be mad. Now it just looks weird and a clear attempt to make Trump look good for Monday.
On Twitter though there’s already people praising Trump for saving TikTok
The remaining userbase of Twitter was praising Trump long before TikTok credited him with “saving” it.
People who still actively post on Twitter like it isn’t a bought and paid for alt-right propaganda machine represent a clear bias.
Twitter is a propaganda machine too? It’s going to sort and surface that kind of thing.
A huge, common fallacy is that there’s any kind of fairness in what rec algorithms prioritize to serve.
Yup, since Trump was the original one who sought to ban it in 2020 likely as a guise to get support under what people use propaganda for as a ‘common enemy’ . Then he appears to save it continuing the rescue from false claims for those who don’t see what is really happening.
See this video of how insensible people can be in the case of TikTok: https://youtube.com/shorts/8qWVs0T4LEw
Biden signed the ban in April 2024, why’d he do that?
Because he opposes the exposure of his genocide.
Because it was tied to a bill funding Ukraine, which was a wee bit more important than an app at the time…
Glad that worked out for him. Then why are people complaining?
Because I think people see this as the Democrats kind of self-owning once again. The Tiktok ban was something Trump started, and now he’s trying to make it seem like he’s the one that is saving it.
Biden stated last week that he wasn’t going to enforce the ban, and let the next president decide what to do, but people think he should have said that much earlier so that he could have taken credit for keeping the app up, and not given “the win” to Trump.
To clarify, I don’t agree at all with this viewpoint, it’s really stupid. Biden most likely couldn’t say anything about it until the Supreme Court decision was made.
He’s not even president yet and TikTok went offline voluntarily. No one but TikTok has done anything regarding the ban, and all they did was flip a switch off then back on. More young folk than I thought are very skeptical or even staying off it because they rightfully distrust Trump. It’s like they chose the devil they didn’t know to get away from the devil they did, and now both devils are there. Im sure many will stay however.
You have too much faith.
Most won’t stay away. Most are deeply and horribly addicted. They faced their withdrawal symptoms for one day. They get got their next hit and now they’re in deeper than ever before.
See: Reddit API debacle
It would be a 4d chess move if they never even talked to Trump before turning it back on and thanking him.
I’m pretty sure Google and Apple both directly removed the apps from the stores since the law officially went into effect today, the company did not request them be removed. And a promise from
But otherwise, yeah.
What the fuck? He’s not even president yet. They disappeared for like a day total?
Reality needs to stop being so poorly written this is so on the nose
