Trump extends the TikTok ban deadline for a third time; there is no legal basis for the extensions and it is unclear how many times the deadline can be extended
-
The thing is the statute of limitations extends beyond Trump's presidency and the penalties are levied against the hosting and distributing companies (Oracle, Google, Apple) wouldn't it be lovely if the next president assuming we get a next president enforced the law and collected the fines from these companies.
I mean, sort of, yes, but also no? It's another tool of power for a tyrannical government to wield, even if it is against companies I dislike.

Not to promote violence, but there's a particular constitutional amendment that applies in this very specific situation
We've been busting through constitutional amendments with abandon. I don't think you could point to one that this administration would honor or respect.
-
I guess there is no legal basis anyway for banning video upload app, just because it is Chinese. Trump is an idiot. AndThis isn't TACO, it's graft.

The legal basis is "Trump gets to do whatever the fuck he wants because none of the checks and balances have any balls to check and balance this motherfucker."
Haven't judges been knocking down a bunch of his proclamations? It's not bulletproof, and it hasn't been everything, but clearly some things are a bridge too far. At least for now.

Is it tyrannical to make companies obey laws they don't agree with? I mean it's probably tyrannical for the law to exist in the first place but this feels like a "well well well if it isn't the consequences of my own actions" for these companies propping up establishment candidates who line up be cucked by Israel.

The far right is using TikTok to reach young demographics. Banning it directly contradicts his interests.
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.

By that logic, you'd think trump would be a slave.
He IS a 34x convicted criminal after all.

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.
