Trump is saying he wants to step in once he's president and "save" tik tok. The same man who was aiming for Tik tok/chinas throat for years. He's so wishy washy but this is one instance where his apparent inability to stand in his mess and have a consistent moral code may benefit people .
the fact that that app is by the same developers as tiktok amd will also be banned alongside it

That's what I'm thinking
Like do they not think that THROWING all their personal data in this newer app is gonna be a real "aha gotcha!" To the government ?
I think maybe for casual users who like to browse and just look at videos and comment ....that would be a good idea for now.
But I'd hope no creators really go to the newer app hoping to build a new fanbase/platform for themselves without realizing they're running the same risk
My heart is really with the Black creators/social advocates on tik tok. People like Keith Lee and others who really bring so much joy, fun and enlightenment to everyone using this app.
China can go to crispy dumpling hell but for THEM, I hope this works out. Trump may actually do some good during his presidency. Look at god

!!!!!
I think trump clearly came around to see the value in Tik tok since he had to use it himself
He's already contradicted himself by PERCHING on there to use it after slamming it (and China as a whole) so why not continue to contradict himself for the greater good :cheerup:

Only if Musk buys it
I cant wait until they ban it. Sick of seeing those stupid challenges
The powers that be want TikTok gone because they can't control it. Many people are getting their news from the app now instead of mainstream media, and they hate it because they can no longer control the narrative.
For example:
- The truth being exposed about Israel and the Palestinian genocide
- The gorls rallying around & celebrating Luigi
- Young people using TikTok to engage and vote against Republicans in 2020
TikTok has become too much of a force. The rich & powerful are desperate to keep the masses under control while maintaining the status quo. Which is why you have mainstream media elites lobbying politicians to get the app yanked. Elon MUST & Mark Zuckerfag are also lobbying to get it axed because it's a huge competitor stealing traffic away from Twitter, Facebook, & IG.
They've had it out for TikTok for a minute. First, they tried to scare us into conforming by saying China was stealing our data. However, all the other Chinese sites like Temu (who also collects data) are just fine. The US government is full of shit. Especially considering all the recent data breaches from American apps.
Now that Trump won the election he wants to "save" TikTok. When he and his minions are a big part of why it's being pulled in the first place.
I still don't understand how these black billionaires didn't either by themselves or collectively create an app that rivals, at the very least, Tik Tok, considering the black influence of sm in general. Perfect opportunity.

Right. Regardless of what you're reading or viewing, you need to do your own research
tiktok has plenty misinformation, but ut has loads of VALID information too from amatuer journalists and politicsl content creators.
thats part of why they trynna ban it in the first place
Hmmmm seems like quite a few of you don't quite understand why the app is being banned. You may wanna do a bit more research

i wouldn't say this all started a as a master plan of trumps to be the savior
Especially considering the Biden administration was excited about getting this ban kicked off
If trump hadn't connected with Tik tok the way he did during his election I think he still woulda backed aa ban
Like most people with certain technologies, they have to really interact with and BENEFIT from it themselves to see the value and in this case , see it as something other than just a chinky China owned app.
What we are really seeing is trumps consistently inconsistent moral code at play again . It just happens to benefit the gorls in this instance .
Also, tik Tok is the one definitely playing games IMO
Them shutting down , especially ahead of the 19th (when they really didn't have to) is their own ploy to really prompt and prove the outcries the absence of their app can cause
It's def a move to apply pressure on the gorls by showing how much of a significant cultural force/staple the app has become in America
And it'll work IMO. Tik Tok not being available is def insane work in 2025

I'm from Canada but I'm so upset by this
Nearly all of the good content on TikTok are from the American context creators... more specifically, the Black American content creators.
I feel so bad for all the small business owners and Black content creators who built their entire brands/businesses from TikTok. Hopefully this is resolved quickly and TikTok becomes available in the US again.
But the fact that they included President Trump in the message let's me know this is definitely a stunt nnnnn
Trump is gonna bring it back and everyone will look at him like a hero. It's a very easy PR win for him.
The Democrats are so retarded. And finished.

did you think they were gonna do a staggered shutdown according to each timezone? vccccc
and trump bringing this back is not going to make him be seen as no damn savior. healthcare has been cut, taxes are being raised for the middle, women are losing their rights, farms and other major industries are facing worker shortages as a result of his deportation approach, and he's about-facing on campaign promises and aligning with musl on issues that are pissinh his own base off. and thats just off the top of my head :omf:

u clearly skipped over the article I posted where even the White House said tik tok is pulling an unnecessary "stunt"
I thought it was a bit stunt-ish considering it was shut down early (and started thinking why did they still shut it down at all. I was confused because Biden got a green light to enforce the ban from SCOTUS but opted not to) but I did a lil research to confirm my theory.
https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5093393-white-house-tiktok-ban-joe-biden-support/amp/
Turns out they gave a "warning" that they'd "go dark" unless they received outright support from Biden, instead of his passive "I'll just leave it to trump" mess.
so tik tok still shutting down is definitely an effort to apply pressure, send a message and prove a point.
Tik tok wants the gorls to SEE what their absence could do . It's typical obnoxiously annoying chink behavior but also smart - as proving negative and widespread impact (including cultural and even economic consequences) could discourage the US government from fuckin with them in the future.
Here's an excerpt from the article in case you're too lazy to click the link.
QuoteThe White House on Saturday called TikTok's statement warning that it will "go dark" on Sunday unless President Biden steps in a "stunt," arguing the app doesn't have to take action before President-elect Trump is sworn in.
"We have seen the most recent statement from TikTok. It is a stunt, and we see no reason for TikTok or other companies to take actions in the next few days before the Trump Administration takes office on Monday," outgoing press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre wrote in a statement Saturday.

tik tok is a kii
170 million users!
Millions of Small business owners can now resume operations! Yay!!!
They're underlining their cultural and economic impact as I said they were trying to do
Them actually quantifying it is a HARD underline. The stir fried version of "I'm not the one"
It's very hypocritical for a Chinese company to own such a large social media platform considering how must are ban in their country including TikTok. I'm glad its closed.
TikTok is trying to pull a power move, but the reality is that TikTok cannot exist without the USA. Now, Trump is going to bail them out to see like a hero to content creators, but honestly TikTok did not have as much power as they thought they did.
It was a scheme that Todd setup to come to us with the Bull shit.

This is quite literally not true.
Like... at all.
TikTok has over 1.6 BILLION active monthly users.
Even without the 170 million users from America, it would still be a massive social media app.
The content might not be as great, but the app would still be heavily used all over the world.

i honestly don't think tik tok was under the delusion that they had more power than the supreme courts
or that people who sit in those positions to get rid of them (from entirely different generations) would be inclined to save them when a concern of national security is raised - just cuz their app is so cool n fun
If anything I think that the way this playing out is actually proving that tik tok may actually have a significant amount of "power" in the states . Ultimately, Biden eventually shied away from enforcing the ban and now trump is promising to help them
Tik tok then took it a step further and drove the point of their economic/cultural significance by purposely pulling the plug . Not long enough for the gorls to find alternatives and come to terms with it ... just long enough to cause a little chaos.
Trump made a genuine, meaningful connection with tik tok during his campaign and discovered himself how useful their platform is.
He's actually doing the right thing by stepping back on his previous stance . Still a kii cuz he's ALWAYS proven to be inconsistent and/or incorrect. But this is one instance where his inconsistency will benefit many.
Trump being anti-China in the past def wasn't part of some long term master plan to be seen as tik tok's hero in 2025.
Dnnfnfnfnfnfnff
He was literally anti-Chinese , labeling covid as the "Chinese flu" and causing a lot of chink hatred and attacks across America.
Of course tik tok was included in his rampage.
I think he was pissed a disease that reportedly started in China was brought here and was giving him hell. Covid was a huge reason he eventually lost the election to Biden IMO

That means nothing to its value. The USA and its 330 million residents have the GDP of India and China COMBINED.
Other than the Europeans, TikTok is probably almost exclusively supported by USA. The whole concept of gifting, tiktok shop and content creation is overwhelming funded by Americans. I will correct myself because, you're right it
could exist without Americans however. The goal of any for profit company is to make money. And you would have to be a fool to think that TikTok's parent company would be willing to lose BILLIONS of dollars instead of selling to an American company.
They would have been forced to sell.
Seeing this play out as someone that barely uses TikTok has been...interesting.
Trump will do anything to be loved. He is def eyeing TikTok as a way to be more popular. He wanted this shit banned previously too.
And this new message giving him credit for bringing it back :kii:

theres hope
supreme court gave green light for ban
But biden decided to leave it in the hands of trump admin
Trump just chatted with Ching Chong Chen or whatever chinas presidents name is
And is saying the chat was productive
:supluv:
Yawn.
This fucking stunt.
Trump is an American hero for this

Now why would you delete the app knowing there was a possibility the app would be coming back?
You seem like one of those people who react way before your brain processes things.
I bet you are always in a debacle in real life.

Fro is a mess trying to light up Tik Tok and China when it was the USA who were actively seeking to ban an app where so many millions of Americans go on daily to express their views and opinions.
Censorship in the land of the so called free in 2025 is abysmal and the gorls are waking up to the fact that they live in a cooperation and oligarchy

they were definitely pulling a stunt with that 30 minute shut down.

Your focus is on the wrong people.
They were reacting to mess thrown their way but who started the mess?

ching Chong su
Or whatever the apps creators name is
And plus I def acknowledged trump was being petty with China years ago which is what caused a lot of this and that he's inconsistent with his moral code.
And was BUTTHURT cuz covid gave him problems right around election time . And was lashing out like the man child he is. But came around only cuz he realized tik toks usefulness after NEEDING it to help him secure this election
But even then still LEANED into his narcissism by clearly forcing Tik tok to mention and damn near worship his name in any messages sent to users related to its restoration.
I'm not just lashing tik tok :usureuok:
But they def don't have my unwavering support. I'm just happy cuz the creators ... especially black creators still have the platform.
One thing good about tik tok is that its algorithm has been proven to be less inherently discriminatory than others. You can log on there and see people of all origins sizes everything going viral and making coin. For that they get a mini kudos. Lil bite size mess :justabit:
I'm 100% here for tik tok being back but I'm not a tik tok stan. If that makes sense .
