tiktok always censored, it's just now it censors anti-Trump content instead of anti-CCP content [1]

both are bad, I liked when tiktok was supposed to be just "banned". it's always been a tool for repressive governments

If it’s true for TikTok it will likely be true for all other forms of popular social media (twitter, instagram, etc) too, so a ban wouldn’t have made a big difference probably.

TikTok was the only popular platform where you could doomscroll and see bad things the US is doing. All others censored it to please the administration. And now TikTok does too.

I think platforms like Bluesky are better suited towards this and that's what people should be using

Does Bluesky still randomly ban people?
