It's nuts that TikTok can be banned while Fox News rots/has rotted Boomer brains by parasitically profiting off cable carriage fees.

@mcfadden I would love to see TikTok being banned. And Telegram with it. Everything Meta and of course, X! Social Media driven by corporate interests is killing democracy all over the world and does no good except to the owners of these companies.

Besides TikTok is a Chinese company and China is a Dictatorship PERIOD! ...

@AndyGER @mcfadden Wait until TikTok gets bought by some right-wing billionaire (which is the real purpose of this “China needs to sell TikTok” bill). It will be like what Musk did with Twitter. Whatever you think is bad with TikTok, it can and will get much worse.

@MisuseCase @mcfadden Look where I am writing this. I think corporate and closed social media will destroy democracy …

@mcfadden tit for tat is a bit rubbish, but China bans western social media like Facebook so why not?

@mcfadden Sounds like TikTok needs to form a PAC.

@mcfadden Still waiting for FOX to be fined for the billions in illegal campaign contributions they've given to the GOP. How much is 3hrs of primetime advertising every day worth anyhow? They are not a non-partisan group. We know they communicated regularly with the Trump administration and Hannity was a regular consultant of Mr Trump. They should be held accountable.
