    Please find two brain cells to rub together to understand the context of the original comment. You’ve gone on a complete nonsensical tangent akin to mental illness

      You just ignore anything you don’t like. Go back to Beijing and tell Poobear you failed.

      I have to say they provided a lot of links and were unable to show anything relevant so i was tempted just to assume they’re crazy but I try not to base anything on crazy people even negatives so I looked it up

      Looking at TikTok creator ages, figures are skewed towards a younger demographic. Young adults (18-24 years) make up over half of the creators (52.83%). While under 18s make up a comparatively low 27.47%

      I don’t know how accurate these are but the article said they’re sourced from tiktok

      A lot of people want a big bad to blame for everything and tiktok is it for a lot of people, but yeah I don’t really think their claim is correct

        Agreed. We’re both being downvote because we’re not part of the hive mind.

        Most of the links provided are about how children were easy to advertise to and TikTok was not properly protecting them. That’s a completely different discussion than “tiktok is targeting children”.

        I want to be a supporter of keeping children safe, but I don’t think banning tiktok will help anything other than create 5 new platforms that will make letting kids safe even harder

        Edit: that last argument is a straw man, but you get the point
