And if it wasn't TikTok, it would be something else. There's always a bogeyman.
That's not really the takeaway here. Social media has proven to be a dangerous source of disinformation. TikTok is the first popular social platform in the West that is controlled by an antagonistic totalitarian government. It is uniquely dangerous.
But that doesn't mean this article isn't bad and written by someone with questionable viewpoints at best. A broken clock is right twice a day and all that. Unless you're on military time. Or it's a digital clock.
