It's backed by the Chinese Communist Party and so I hate it

haha is it actually?

Owned by a company with strong ties to the CCP

Actually censors information on Tianmen Square, Xinjiang concentration camps and HK protests

I hate how much of today's youth is on it.

Also the platform allegedly has told moderators to suppress content from 'ugly' and 'poor' people in order to increase new user retention, but I have no clue on how true that is.

To think we gave up Vine for Tiktok. Take me back to 2017.

It's amazing. Seeing a Tik Toker at the moment who has never seen any movies from major franchises nor any staples of cinema, nor is familiar with famous folks of the 20th century. She was confused about who Bruce Willis was by talk at work, I pointed out he was in the christmas movie called Die Hard and her response was "it doesn't sound like a christmas movie, it sounds violent." Clarifying Alan Rickman was in it was meaningless.

Knows who Jake Paul and Tana Mongeau are however. Feeling a bit like Grandpa Simpson's famous speech about how he stopped being with it.

I saw a newspaper headline a few days ago about some sort of war between youtubers and tiktokers. Hope there aren't too many casualties.
