Colin Allred, set to face Ted Cruz, voted to ban TikTok, in spite having a very active account on the platform. Here are two others. -- (link) - Qale Mar 13, 15:49
they’ll just go to reels on insta. it won’t be hard -- nm - hollywood big shot Mar 13, 14:19 15
- Reels is the Walmart version of Tik Tok. Less creative, more aw shucky darn and honestly more pornographic. *shrug* -- nm - Pippy: Court of Fog and War Mar 13, 14:20 5
  - My Reels seems to be all the crazy right wing commentary. I watch lots of the crazy commentary and options of the left and right on Youtube..... - Walt_Disney Mar 13, 15:14
  - because of Sara...my reels feed is all asian girls doing dances which leads to some...interesting videos -- nm - Remlik Mar 13, 14:48
  - Our TikTok and Reels experiences are -very- different. -- nm - David Mar 13, 14:22 2
    - LOL. I should point out, it is SM's reels, which therein may lie the problem. - Pippy: Court of Fog and War Mar 13, 14:25 1
      - I was just reminded that Trump forced China to sell Grindr due to, *reads notes* gaining information about users HIV status they input in the app. - Qale Mar 13, 14:37
- Writers could have just gone to other industries instead of fighting Hollywood, it wouldn't have been hard. -- nm - Qale Mar 13, 14:20 8
  - TikTok isn’t going anywhere if China just sells off its interest. but if it’s willing to shut it down instead, the question answers itself -- nm - hollywood big shot Mar 13, 14:22 7
    - Its US portion is valued at $50 billion dollars. Who is going to divest that? And even if they did... - Qale Mar 13, 14:29 6
      - Elon paid $44b for Twitter. ByteDance could double that valuation and find any number of non-totalitarian private owners -- nm - hollywood big shot Mar 13, 14:40 5
        
        Elon could be a Chinese agent. The Chinese could be harvesting data. Very quickly America could be on the road to a witch-hunt in grand McCarthy style - Loyola Mar 13, 14:47 4
        
        Elon should have his security clearance revoked this afternoon for a whole host of reasons, not the least of which is his reliance on the Chinese mkt -- nm - hollywood big shot Mar 13, 14:48 3
        
        I’m no fan of his but this is nonsense. The US Treasury is pretty reliant on China to continue buying Treasury bonds. The hysteria being whipped up is - Loyola Mar 13, 14:56 2
        
        China is also dependant on buying these to keep their economy's gears greased. -- nm - Reagen Mar 13, 15:56
        
        Chinese ownership of the US is exaggerated, they have 10-15% which isn't nothing, and with internal markets f'd they'll keep coming here to invest -- nm - zeitgeist Mar 13, 14:59
