So China-ownership was better because it censored China-related stuff in China and didn’t care much about other themes in other countries. It is exactly what your colorful analogy means. The world isn’t black and white indeed:)

Except for the subtle Chinese propaganda constantly fed to the rest of the world. Now the propaganda is blatant enough for people to abandon the app, so the world is technically better for the US seizure. The app went to shit, but it was already pretty bad, so no net loss there.

  Right because homegrown propaganda tastes so much better than foreign.
  
  Invade, Invade, Invade, Yum, Yum, Yum!
  
  You know US only controls the tiktok infra in the US market, right?
  
  Are you one of those “us is the center of the universe” guys?

Sure, if you gloss over the “most” part and replace it with “all”.
