Like you said, it’s not new information that Tik Tok hides posts on certain topics and promotes posts on other topics though, so it isn’t surprising either way. I’ll add that they do it with more than just pro-China content

This is because Tiktok slows spread of anti-CCP content and boosts pro-CCP content. Exactly like they keep swearing they don’t. ByteDance answers to their State Capitalism daddy Xi, they are not independent as they claim.

Whatever anyone China-affiliated says they're not doing, it's a safe bet that's exactly what they're doing.

I'm not going to push any conspiracy theories, but I believe the strongest evidence pointing towards Covid-19 originating in a lab is the Chinese government insisting that it didn't, while prohibiting anyone not under their control from investigating. That doesn't mean it did originate from a lab, but if anything, that's what it points to. To be explicit: My impression is that, currently, most available evidence points towards natural origins. However the Chinese government has done its best to convince me otherwise.

TikTok shows me BBQ techniques, random models, and teenagers trying to be professional stuntmen and almost dying. And that one time sea shanties. You have to train the algorithm.

Let's hope for Loops to take over!

*Pro-West Taiwan narratives.

The first week of the pandemic, a youtube channel posted ALL the info on the lab leak, it was scrubbed off the face of the internet. Showed the lab and the food stall the lab worker went to nearby. Also that a california lab was sharing reasearch with said lab in wuhan and stopped just a bit prior to the leak.

All according to plan

The only one opposed to unification is the US

I suppose that’s… better than a war in the future?

oh yeah, just giving in to opression is easier than fighting it, ain't it?

I'm staggered so many people seem to think TikTok isn't used to sway public opinions.

It's people who run apologia for anything the Chinese government or even Chinese business does.

Meanwhile I remember that TikTok helped Trump' s youth outreach campaign with the message they gave when US access was restored, so they've already signalled they're not on my side.

So when a person shows up at your house with a gun, you should also just move out and hand it over?

And the Taiwanese

I've only ever tried to watch travel videos, yet they still feed me the occassional far-right propaganda and even islamism

According to western media like Instagram, Facebook, X. I should go outside of my house when Israelis come into my doorsteps and take my house. I should also use my hard earned tax money to supply them with more weapons so they can steal more of our houses.

But when China does it with Tiktok, it’s bad. bad

I’m so tired if europeans and people of european descent pretending like they have moral high ground over China. I’m done with the double standards. I’m tired of how colonized their brains are.

Both China and USA (and Europe) are in the wrong with everything.

One side doing bad things doesn’t make another side doing bad things ok. Democracy isn’t perfect but it is better than the rest of the systems. Money in politics sours the pot.

tiktok is no exception, today all major content sources are rottenly biased.

like anyone relying on msm or /r/worldnews will think israel is fighting for survival against an ultra-advance alien invasion rather than genociding unarmed starving population with missiles, drones and snipers.
