Yeah, all of the “vibes are off” jokes aside, TikTok is drastically different after the ban was lifted. I have gotten straight up racist and fascist propaganda on my fyp, and there are a lot of sympathetic comments on those videos. But I never got those videos before, because my algorithm was automatically filtering them out. It’s almost as if the app has been programmed to bypass the algorithm and occasionally show alt-right talking points to everyone, just in the hopes of casting as wide a net as possible.
I’ve had that experience on all social media platforms. Sometimes just straight up hard right propaganda will appear on my feed and I have to block it again and again.
