An attempted coup with no consequences. Not for the leader, not for the people who carried it out. They tried to violently overthrow the lawfully elected government and were given the green light. That’s not something that happens in functional democracies.

TikTok had a massive community of #ActuallyAustistic people, likely the largest autistic community in the world ever. It included all ages and speakers and non-speakers. It also had a large chronically ill community. The potential loss of community for many otherwise isolated folks is significant.

TT changed the game when it came to advocacy on social media. That algorithm made it easier than ever to get your message to millions of people, regardless of follower count. Real change in healthcare has happened on several occasions in part because of TikTok. This is a big loss in a lot of ways.
