Comment on TikTok's CEO is feeling the pressure and users are freaking out
Eldritch@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoI concede. Can’t argue with facts like that. You’d have to be brainwashed to want to be spied on by one less entity. Oh wait my mistake. You have no facts. You’re just expressing a baseless useless opinion that isn’t worth shit. Have a nice day :-)

Hm funny how the government isn’t banning spying, but is asking for foreign companies to be sold? It’s okay when Facebook goes it.

Funnily enough. If you weren’t jumping to conclusions about things not being said. I actually agree with you on that. I think it’s hypocritical that the government is doing this. I’m still allowed and have good reason to dislike tiktoc more.
You’re welcome to go look at my post history from the last few days. I’ve made the exact argument that it is hypocritical. And believe me I’d rather move off to something like peer tube entirely. But there’s logistics still needing to be addressed before that. And currently we’re largely stuck in a few inescapabe duopolies. Least worst of two inadequate choices. And yes YouTube wins that technically by being mildly less manipulative. Not by much. Believe me I know how much their algorithm stirs the pot trying to get engagement.

The CCP manipulation story is being pushed by the very US government-friendly NYT… you’re brainwashed.

I got no love for NYT. What evidence do you have that China. A country known for meddling in and manipulating business in China. Is not meddling in and manipulating this particular Chinese owned brand.
Let it not be neglected that you just moved your goalposts. But if you feel so strongly about this. Surely you must have some hard evidence to share with us poor brainwashed plebs. 😏
