It'll most likely be back soon, y'all. These are small problems at the foot of a mountain of big problems. 

Can we please focus on the mountain for a moment? The incoming administration is ramping up for mass deportations in big cities in the coming weeks. Maybe we use our tiktokless time to come up with plans to help our neighbors. 

That could be a reason they wanted it shut down temporarily though, so less people will post about the deportations coming this week and we’re left in the dark.

If the official TikTok page actually says “Trump will help us” then this is totally for show. In Canada we still have it so I don’t see any of those messages.

Biden is so ****ing stupid. First the ceasefire deal and now this. Democratic voters need to wake up and purge all these inept, ancient, career democrats. 
 

I can’t wait for the next primaries so I can roast all the corporate democrat stooges when you try to defend the centrist candidate. You know who you are. :anveeroy:

You are little rat, so small-minded. Be best.

They’re banning TikTok cause of your inappropriate lives.
 

I heard your “husband” was NOT happy and retaliated by enacting the ban.

It doesn’t literally say that but it’s suggested that they will be back. Considering that the Tik Tok CEO is invited to the inauguration, they must have struck a deal. How exactly that would circumvent the deadline, I don’t know. Could an executive action actually undo what Congress and the Supreme Court put in place? 
 

More importantly, what has Tik Tok conceded to Trump? 
 

EDIT: OH **** Tik Tok is literally giving Trump credit for it. How is this even possible? He’s not even in office yet.

Thanks, it didn’t seem realistic but at the same time things are so crazy in the US right now I would almost believe anything at this point. It’s going to be extremely interesting how things continue to unfold. 

Unrelated but sort of thematically similar, are people, gay people in particular, abandoning meta platforms over there after they changed their policies to allow people to post that being gay is a mental disorder? I see some people in Canada switching to BlueSky.

Trump will reverse it somehow on Monday. Tik Tok’s CEO is attending the inauguration. It’s all theater for him to look like a savior for uninformed people who don’t know the ban idea started in 2020 under his administration by the GOP. 

This.

I’m so mad Biden and his Dems let this happen. 

The app is LITERALLY locking 10s of millions of Americans out as of an hour ago - with a message saying “Daddy Trump will save us 🥹

Trump saving this will come across as the next $1200 checks like god Dems are so incredibly stupid and ALLERGIC to winning. 

Hope the radical z!0nism was worth it for them.

You say this as if most of the American youth have their priorities straight and they literally do not. 

It’s ****ed but if you’re not meeting people where they are, you’re not meeting people period. The smart activists realized this and actually built a platform on the app.

This ban isn’t how you get people to care about other issues like they’re just gonna be pissed off. 

This looks so bad for Biden and the Dems like there is no white washing this.

Of course everyone is trying to credit Trump even though this whole thing was his idea. The manipulation/misinformation machine strikes again.

Another bs talking point bc why tf did Dems and Biden sign on to it then?

This is why so many people have problems with Dems bc they’re supposed to hold Republicans accountable and they don’t.
