You do you, but I am old enough to be classically conditioned to hate any and all autoplay videos. The same for every video that the creator has added music in the back ground.

TikTok and any of its replacements will never be for me, and thats okay. Not everyone is gonna be into gay sex, but I sure am. Sall good.

That said, TikTok shouldn't be banned. We should have a digital bill of rights so no service/app/corporation, regardless of country of origin, is able to abuse the data of the people for profit or maleficence. Our data comrades.

Unfortunately the poltical system has people discussing which is worse, genocide or genocide+, instead of positive rights legislation.

Trump truly is the gift that keeps on giving to the 1%. So long as he is around, all anyone will talk about is trump trump trump. How they hate trump or love trump or what trump is up to or what laws he broke. The longer we talk about Trump, the less we talk about finding a peaceful way forward for this nation. The less we talk about replacing First-past-the-post voting.
