TikTok is the most likely channel along with other consumer apps for media to be used strategically against the U.S. and its vulnerable population. ByteDance currently has 3 apps in the top 10 in app downloads.
TikTok hypnotic allure is the perfect condition in the "user", for thought-experiments to take place by the CCP and the PLA. This includes alterting sentiment around Capitalism, democracy, and the United States itself.

honestly you sound like all the boomers in the government. it’s an app. it just so happens to be popular. every other social media platform has tried to copy it without success. so why aren’t they on this list? you could argue reddit is worse. but it all sounds very anti china to me. crazy how patriotism is still a thing in 2023 lmao
