So because the US vetoed a measure earlier, them proposing a ceasefire now is grounds for Russia/China to veto?

You sound like someone who thinks “no u” is a strong argument.

They should try the Nitrogen mask on him.

And ironically the gun manufacturers or politicians who support lax gun laws are not included in these “nets”. A radicalized individual with a butcher knife can’t possibly do as much damage as one with a gun.

Same can be said about most of Western Europe though.

People like that complain about the lack of free speech, then in the same breath praise China, a country that will literally disappear you if you step out of line.

And unfortunately it’s mostly younger voters, who as a group BARELY vote.

Sure, but there are only 4 options when November comes: 1) vote for Biden, 2) vote for Trump, 3) vote 3rd party, or 4) don’t vote.

Due to how the US system works, options 2-4 only help Trump, so unless you want a Trump presidency, only option 1 is valid.

Anything else is just at best a pipe dream, or at worst, direct support for someone who will become a dictator.

Yeah, that’s exactly what a smart landlord would do, try and screw over someone who is being investigated for murder. No way that could go wrong.

With that statement we can ignore everything you say. If you don’t take part in the voting process you don’t have a voice and your opinion doesn’t matter.

Well, if you look at that argument from the US government perspective, a US company vs a China one certainly warrants a different approach. I mean, I wish we had broader social media level data protections, but that’s not what this is no matter what spin is being applied.

It’s not a “could spy”, it’s a definitely spies. Yes, it sucks that we don’t have broader social media reforms and controls in place, but allowing a foreign hostile government this much direct access to US citizens is a bridge too far.

As much as I’d like to see broader reforms around social media, this is one of the bigger reasons of “why focus on TikTok”. Ban or force a sale.

There should also be some serious taxes on any US tech company leveraging China for outsourcing, so much so that all cost saving for cheaper labor are wiped out completely.

No, if he wins, the blame will be on people like you. Naive or a Russian shill.

In the realities of the US electoral system, a vote for a third party is akin to a vote for Trump. Twist and spin all you want, but that’s reality.

Anyone who argues this is either naive, or a disinformation Russian asset.

“Biden is hardly better”. What an idiotic take. A flaming bag of crap is terrible, and your opinion here is “hardly any better”.

Ties not just to “a company in China”, but directly to the Chinese government.

For better or worse, and how other US platforms operate, Tik Tok is controlled by a hostile (to the US) nation state.

Keep in mind that China also blocks many US company products/platforms for their own reasons, so this is not at all a surprise.

Politicians like Putin? You know the source of all this is Putin himself. He is certainly mentally hill [sic]
