My TikTok feed is rather radical, which is a non+option on all the other corporate platforms.
I think it's often personal, as opposed to objective. A lot of people simply like it and do not want to lose access to something they like.
I agree with and support TikTok being banned as I believe it’s a detriment to society, and the sole reason why I’m okay with the government doing it is because they refuse to sell the company to some shell US one which would be more privy to our government’s oversight. If ByteDance were in it for the money, selling to a US shell company and trying to get as much money back to China as possible from the #1 social media app in the world would be THE priority. They flatly refuse to sell, so it’s not about the money, and that’s suspicious to me.
