My husband has Stage IV Cancer and he found a community on TikTok. People that understand what he’s going through. It wasn’t just a way to pass the time.
I disagree. Social media can be a powerful tool for good, allowing us to connect with others, access information, and build communities. Shutting it down would limit our freedom of expression and access to essential resources.
No! Social media is important in showing us all of the corruption happening around us and in our world. Especially Tik Tok. I wouldn’t have none half of the crazy sht going on around me without Tik Toks help
This is what I thought at first, but it’s quiet obvious that they need an app where they can continue to brainwash and spread right wing propaganda. They just need us in apps they can control.
The younger set that’s going to get fucked over by this enormous pile of shit clusterfuck need to get their noses out of their phones and into reality.
I disagree, unless getting a life means building strong diverse United communities that fight together for positive change. But if a life is self centered isolation, then I'd rather we at least found community online.
Unfortunately, I have a friend at a care facility that can't breathe without a machine. FB, right now anyway, is the only way he can communicate independently. For many, it's a lifeline...
The US Govt just stiffled free speech in America. This is historical and fascist. Germany 1933 coming up next. And conveniently, before he sends his goons out on mass deportations. No Tiktok = No witnesses. This is huge and all Americans should be concerned.
I used my platform to inform people of different, potentially more effective mental health therapy options. Spreading hope to people that often felt frustrated and hopeless. I don't ever want to stop reaching out to those feelings shameful, alone, hopeless, etc. TikTok was amazing in that way.
That is in the Project 2025 plan. Of course X will survive as it is now the Trumpaganda machine. It's sole purpose is for the Olibarfs to control the masses!
Every OTHER social media, ok. Otherwise, fuck you too, Molly. People found their life on TikTok. Businesses got better business, animal rescues became more successful and prominent, people that couldn’t read were overcoming fears and learning to read with others that couldn’t read…
Then while we're complying in advance and in the dark current events-wise the oligarchs continue their plunder of our environment, stripping of our rights to secure their labor, and further the class divides to keep us from doing something about it
Back in 1972, I'd skip class high school class with my commie friend and go to the nearby college campus coffee shops and hang with the intellectuals and freaks--a learning experience, well one of them, there were many.
Why do we find it pertinent to police how other people spend their time. Build your community where you are. Let others build there's. Everone who agrees can come meet you while others congregate here or elsewhere. Don't speak about it be about it.
I agree. As I’m new to TikTok as a viewer and occasional commenter, I’m flabbergasted at the amount of ignorance and vitriolic confrontations on it. The cursing and anger by “Christians” is staggering. The acceptance of political bad behavior for your side, mostly MAGA, is infuriating.
My favorite activity is forgetting this app exists and honestly, it’s so fun to come back when I remember. I’m sure it’s different for you and you’d have to just “select all” and “delete” 😂
I made it all the way to 2010 without social media, unless you count forums. God, I miss forums.
All your social circles segregated. All topics organized by the site administrator (some better than others). No stupid like counters (for awhile anyway) and no algorithm dictating your attention.
I found a whole community of people on Tik Tok and am feeling a loss of that community. Just because it doesn’t matter to you, doesn’t mean it isn’t important to others.

I know because
I was there.
Let's unplug the whole Internet and kill all the corporate supervillains.
I'm here because cat pics keep me from going AWAY for Life.

To me if you're getting rid of one, get rid of all of them.
Maybe disengagement from social media could become a thing like Dry January, Sober October, etc. I’m tempted to try it, myself.
Boycott them to death.
