So many people on here are like “it’s better if #TikTok is owned by an American company and not China” but @[email protected] knows what’s up, the idea is to put it in the hands of some right-winger who will do what they accuse China of doing or who will do to it what Elon Musk did to Twitter. https://mastodon.social/@GottaLaff/112094226896024088
@[email protected] I have been banging the drum about the whole push to ban TikTok for a while because it came from a Facebook lobbying effort (at first) and was meant to crush Meta’s biggest competitor while dangling a red herring that would distract from real comprehensive privacy legislation.
This thing that’s going on right now is even worse.

I’ve read\heard Kellyanne ConJob is lobbying for
sherrilynifill
So this dude just re-emerges from the permafrost to try & buy TikTok, which Trump has suddenly decided shouldn’t be banned & for which KeyyAnne Conway has been a paid lobbyist for months? 6 months before the election?
