Tik Tok and China is becoming a bit more alarming...

881 Views | 51 Replies

I should find a way to ban Tik Tok from my house. Good thing I have that Chinese spyware deleted.


A bit coincidental how China is preparing it's military for a battle, I'm actually getting a bit scared.

Pretend not to care about anything, but be bothered by everything.

You may be fast on the roads but it's no use on the track.

Yeesh, this is getting bad... The internet is a corporate and political mess and part of it might relate to the leaders of China... I don't mean any hate, but I might need to tell my friends to get rid of TikTok. How can I do it without sounding dumb?


Just tell them that it's still spyware, and it's filled with scams or something. I'm trying to ban the app from my router.

Nah, not this time.

One of two things happens:


1: The trilogy's reset. WWI was actually Part 2. The Franco-Prussian War was the long-forgotten first part of the trilogy, so Germany's arc is over. Think of how many people are aware of Street Fighter 1 vs. Street Fighter 2; that's basically that trilogy of wars.


2: Third time's the charm.

LGBT acceptance got highjacked by Chinese Communism, they're trying to weaken American society by encouraging everyone to be feminine and accept veganism so we can't fight back in war. And yes they are factually readying themselves for war.

It had red flags all over it from the start. They gave special treatment to whoever said nice things about the CCP. *shudders*

Well I think that you're underestimating the Vatican and the European union. Not to mention that the US has won it's last war (since World War 2). The war will start, but something terrible must happen first (it will come to pass, I'm afraid).

I'm probably the only one who thinks that TikTok is an insanely stupid app.


Actually, come to think of it I genuinely feel that I have no interest in doing any of these trends that come out of it. To me it's just a giggle and that's about it.


Strange...the video says that TikTok is addictive and somehow became a must-see for tons of people. Yet I never downloaded the app or showed any interest, even before it became apparent that it was another path to CCP dominance.


They also compared the addictive nature to Vegas casinos. I went on vacation to Vegas last August, not showing much interest in gambling myself. I decided to bet $100 and lost half of it, never getting stimulated by the slot machines, blackjack, roulette, etc. Of course, the main reason I went to Vegas in the first place was this.


Why am I not vulnerable to those kinds of addictions in the first place?


Of course, I am more concerned about how much of what we buy is Made in China, and how there is little to no pressure for corporations to move their supply chains elsewhere.


I believe in the ultimate triumph of evil over good in this world.


It doesn't help that we keep funding our enemies.

Yes, every single person on the planet loves the absolute shit out of tiktok, except for only that one, single, special snowflake that is YOU!! \o/


But nah dude, loads of people out there, who think its just as stupid as you do.

I guess I should be glad it exists though, so people won't flood youtube with their shitty 10 second clips of crappy lipsyncing, with their dumb faces way to close to the phone camera. So I'm glad it was invented, like somebody has invented the garbage bin, so we don't have all of that trash on our floors and useable areas.

It's okay mate. You did your part.


They really are...


I always thought they'd take over covertly though. Through business. But this new war thing... scary prospects.


If they decide to do something I can't see anyone really being able to stop 'em.

This is probably the best article you can find on it without any emotional argument


It just gets straight to the facts and I'm going to tell you the same thing I did on instagram when I made my artwork, you be the judge and decide.

Read it... I'm going to delete it real soon... Thanks; I don't want to help out with something possibly catastrophic...

Good thing I never downloaded nor used that Chinese spyware.


Any "private business" or anything "owned" by its citizens is automatically owned by the Chinese government, because they still follow under some fundamentals of communism (government owns everything), even though they practice free trading with the rest of the world.


Just another NG user.

Thanks, @COOLZONE17500 for the cool signature.

It is me, or do people have freakouts every time someone says that China could potentially take over the world using technology and try to implement their systems towards every other country? Never mind the fact that they are generally quite shoddy at projecting soft power and their military, while certainly fearsome in East Asia, can easily be tied up on their Pacific coast?


I donโ€™t have TikTok and never will, but itโ€™s merely because itโ€™s a waste of time and space on my phone. The data collection and CCP censorship is a happy, but unrelated coincidence.



Just stop worrying, and love the bomb.

Oh boy, it's another one of these videos again. The shitty youtube "video essay" where the author presents their opinion as if it were fact, downplays any counterarguments, blasts shitty stock footage and music at you while speeding along with their harried narratives so that you don't notice you're being taken for a ride.


Rub two braincells together and verify whatever you've seen. The guy couldn't even fucking spell "Chinese" correctly, for fuck's sake. There's plenty of things that you can criticize TikTok for, why go to the trouble of inventing these fake-ass narratives out of whole cloth?


But hey, you're obviously too smart to fall for propaganda, amirite?

So I finished watching the video, and it was even worse than I thought. (Eh? Eh? Anyone?)


What utter tripe. The video kicks into full insanity after the 24 minute mark or so and goes full turning-the-frogs-gay mode. Just more and more alarmist bullshit, and the author either doesn't see the irony in it all, or knows full well what they're doing.


Let me make it clear: there's not a chance in hell that China would actually go to war, nor would they take over the world.

I would be happy if they did, though, because it would mean I don't have to see the brain rot that are these videos anymore.


With videos like these, how can I not trust this guy?

i kinda given up. my mom is afraid of mentioning taiwan for fear of pissing off the CCP-frendos in the local government.


my father is watching literal CCP propaganda everyday, that's shitting on the west (and sometimes south korea too), on his korean/Samsung phone ,running an OS that originated from USA/Google. no fucks given anymore.
