Better be including all ages then because everyone is on that thing.
Everyone who uses it is a threat to themselves and our society as a whole, that is how big a threat I think it is and I wholeheartedly believe China is willing to make full use of the authority they've been given. But it's mostly the kids.
And I assume this is self reported data, so it's probably even more children than just that.
Your stats show it's not just kids...
Unless you consider anyone under 50 to be kids.
My stats show the largest age group is kids, and the lower the age the higher the user percentage.
So kids: 25% ok Non kifs: 75% 🤔
Let's say for a moment that the largest demographic being actual children and young adults is not substantial for some reason, who gives a fuck? We're in a thread under a post about GEN Z doing a TIKTOK TREND. My outrage at Gen Z using TikTok is relevant, you're whataboutism for the other age demographics is pointless.
This shows an almost perfectly even distribution across all age groups ...
It shows exactly what I said it shows, but also why does it even matter in the context of this discussion?
Because you're blaming the kids but 75% of the users aren't kids
I am blaming everyone, as I clearly stated several times. The post itself is specifically about the kids.
