Y’all realize this doesn’t “ban” tik tok but would force it to be sold to an American company

I believe it does ban it if not sold by 6 months after passage.

Yea and is a massive social media platform. I’d be shocked if that doesn’t happen

Imagine if the Nazi Party had the ability to beam Nazi propaganda fliers directly into the eyes of American children, and the youth of America then were mostly basically addicted to the Nazi propaganda. That's the situation we have today.

Tik tok shows you what you interact with. If you’re get CCP propaganda that means you are engaging with it. All my tik tok is is mostly food, animals, Reddit ai readings, and gay memes

From somewhere in cyber-heaven, Vine is getting the last laugh. 

Musk has made noise of reviving it, but honestly a Musk run tik tok sounds like hell

Biden won’t win reelection at all if he signs this

I don't know about that but I think it's going to hurt him.

I don’t think signing it will hurt him unless the app is actually banned in the US by the election.

Yea there’s already the six month “grace” period, and there’s certainly going to be litigation around it

Not sure why everyone thinks that this will hurt Biden so horribly. Most Americans seem to hate social media. It's not like this is the "Ban Netflix" legislation or something. Almost everyone knows at this point anyway that TikTok is Chinese spyware.

Honestly banning Netflix might be more popular than banning tik tok

If TikTok is banned, what will the dominant social media platform be in the future?

I never want to hear "there's more important issues" from anyone who supports banning Tiktok.

Instagram does everything tiktok does + you can actually have normal still shots, not just annoying short videos with bad AI voices.

Yea but Instagram makes me feel bad about myself 😂 it’s whole thing is comparing your image with other people
