It’s more than just up and down too- it’s those who understand the TT tech vs those who don’t, and those who have absorbed some deep good ol American racism toward China vs those who don’t. There’s a lot of axes here.
It's both, Trump proposed the ban initially and it got pushed through with bipartisan support. The issue isn't left vs right, it's up and down. The ban is the work of oligarchs lining their pockets using our corrupt government.
this “tiktok ban was trumps idea originally” thing im seeing from resist accounts is fuckin COPE. that is COPE.

Banning TikTok more tangibly and directly impacts young people than anything else Biden did.
It’s a huge self-own.
And if Trump restores the platform…oh boy.
This is why the old guard needs to go. The party needs leaders who understand…you know, the internet.

I honestly don't care if TikTok comes back on Monday, it won't be the same, people will always have one foot out the door now.
I'm really hoping that @skylight.social or something like it takes off so I don't have to be beholden to a megacorp anymore.

When you mourn TikTok, you don't need to clarify that you're only morning the highbrow shit from on there. It's sad because millions of people are losing livelihoods. Not just the ones you personally find "deep". Avoid turning shared grief into a chance to try to appear smarter than other people.

I think it is important for freedom of assembly to apply to the places where people assemble.
I miss the days when people didn't consider having a social media account a first amendment right. Funny how attitudes changed when people discovered they could monetize these things innit

As a Brown person who looks vaguely Latino I expect to be thrown into a van & sent to a private prison labor camp to assemble domestically made iPhones for some failed gaming egirl to make MAGA tradwife short form gooner bait on for TrumpTok by 2026.
I believe it's called "1939"

Idea: when weird angry people with bible quotes in their bio yell about China and communists or whatever, I’m going to just reply to them by posting bible verses translated into mandarin and watch them freak out over just seeing Chinese characters on their phone

The deep goal of bluesky is to decentralize the social internet so that every individual controls their experience of it rather than having it be controlled by 5 random billionaires. Everyone thinks they signed up for a demuskified twitter...we actually signed an exciting and bizarre experiment.

Spending a month on Bluesky has created a whole new model of a fight we need to be having right now. Not liberal vs. conservative or whatever, but respect vs manipulation.
I am tired of being manipulated everywhere I go. That’s why I like it here, I feel like I’m in charge for once.
