Johnson says ‘we will enforce the law’ on TikTok ban, 2 GOP senators break with Trump on extension

  • It's not about Biden, it's about the executive branch. And the incoming dumbass has already said he's gonna save it, so it is relevant.

  • What happened with Biden's promise to not enforce it? Is that not something the POTUS can do or is this just the legislative branch posturing?

    • Marvel Snap is banned, just like TikTok

  • It absolutely was.

  • They did. And they're already are rolling it back, specifically thanking trump for helping to "restore service". It was all a political stunt, and nobody's gonna care cause their skinner button got turned back on again.

  • Or "the company might get pissy with your government for any reason". No reason to let them off the hook, either.

  • "Fuck over". Lol, it's a shitty video app, mate. Get some perspective.

    • TikTok goes dark in the US ahead of ban

    Jump

  • All the public pressure is on the US, not China. And all they have to do is show that it would make trump more popular and he'll send them a blank check.

  • Take? More like give.

    • If trump never won the electoral college in 2016, would he have been able to have another chance at becoming president (aka: 2020, 2024 elections)?

  • The only explicit limitations to being POTUS are

    1. Place of birth (US only (and 14 years residency))
    2. Age (35+)
    3. Term limits (2)

    • Gotta get better gear anyway we can. You don't want to be looted yourself right?

  • Yup. Can't compare pictures when the venue is different.

  • And, returning to the original question - How exactly is that treating individual intelligence as a choice and not a genetic trait?

  • I wonder if your sensitivity to this bit is because of your own perspective on where you sit intellectually or financially

    Literally what you said. Feel free to clarify if that's not what you meant.

  • Lol. "You're dumb and poor". What an informative reply. Thanks for clearing that up.

  • Setting aside the ableism of your reply, it still in no way relates to how intelligence is treated in the movie that is being discussed.

  • The movie is about how "dumb" people outbred "smart" people and it ruined the planet/humanity. Replace those traits with the races of your choice or any other genetic trait and tell me if you're still OK with that narrative.
