This is totally different from Trump. Trump wanted Republicans to ban TikTok. Biden wants bipartisan support in banning TikTok. Two very different things.
You need two wings to fly an airplane.
depends how far you're going before crashing
We all know it's because TikToc is largely anti-genocide.
Didn't Biden also make a tik tok and then get dragged in the comments lol?
It was probably an intern but I have a mental image of Biden personally getting bullied by highschool kids and I'm gonna roll with that instead.
dew it. make an enemy of the youth vote. make the 2024 the funniest election in American history
Getting out the youth vote by emulating the crotchety dean in an 80s comedy.
Tik-tok houuuuuse! 
what's the renewed interest in banning tiktok all about
manufacturing consent for attacking China
I thought it was the fact that TikTok is showing young people what Gaza actually looks like on the ground.
Well probably both.
CHINA SCARY BAD!
But rupert Murdoch and the other foreign billionaires who own ask the mainstream news? Totally fine!
Tik Tok is mean to Biden
Easy distraction from the actual problems of the country
These guys really do live in an alternate reality
TikTok is a weaponized skinner box, a slot machine where there's never any wins
It absolutely should be illegal, just not for the reasons U.S. political liches care about
Banning all forms of algorithm based content dispensers would be cool as hell but idk how you'd legislate that. Maybe with the FCC or something
Send a bear into the server rooms of any company confirmed to use them. Fear will keep them in line.
