It's still really infuriating how judgmental people are when you say that you use TikTok while they all still gleefully sit around Elon Musk's Nazi Bar™
"But China is spying on you!"
So?
Who gives a fuck? I'd rather be spied on by China than some techbro billionaire and I'd rather be at least a little bit more firewalled from the FISA court and rampant NSA data collection.
"But it's addictive and bad for your health!"
Twitter farms content engagement through rage bait and exposing its users to alt-right ideology. TikTok does it with cute funny videos. Like.
"You could be influenced by Chinese propaganda!!"
Unlike American social media that exposes you to nonstop American propaganda? TikTok isn't at all likely to send you down the alt-right pipeline like a service run by a literal Nazi is going to. Chinese propaganda isn't great, but it's nothing compared to how awful nationalistic and right-wing propaganda are.
Seriously, the lengths that furries and leftists will go to say they hate Elon Musk then absolutely fellate the man on a daily basis blows my mind. The rampant sinophobia and the McCarthy-esque pearl clutching over the CCP is infuriating enough to listen to, but hearing it while people buy drinks from the X Nazi Factory is beyond infuriating. Neither TikTok nor Twitter are good, but one is *way less harmful* than the other.
