Many are quitting TikTok even though it’s back because of how egregious this is. I think they are absolutely right and more should follow.

If you've watched Babylon 5, this is like when ISN came back as a propaganda network.
If you haven't watched Babylon 5, go watch Babylon 5.
IMO The series jumped the shark after Babylon 2.
No you gotta muscle through. It goes off the rails in Babylon 2, and gets a little artsy for my taste in Babylon 3, but after it starts to find itself again in Babylon 4, it's a masterpiece by Babylon 5. That's why that's the one you always hear about.
I'm waiting for JJ Abrams to wow us all with Babylon 6.
Babylon 8008135 was the tits.
But the prequel Babylon 0 and then the spin-off Babylon 0rigins was too much. Just skip the fluff and enjoy the masterpiece, watch Babylon 5.
I just like to pretend none of it exists except Babylon 5.
Every day Trump is in office, Babylon 5 just pops into my head. My local radio station has ABC news bits, and I'm always expecting them to be cracked down on like ISN.
I hate that when Sci-Fi uses the future to look at society, society decides to become that bad future.
It's the memory hole. Except they don't have to burn anything because it's all digital.
I watched the first season, I should pick it up again. (People say it gets better after the first season but I thought that first season was pretty good!)
The only season that wasn't that good was the 5th season. It's still pretty good and worth the watch, but they thought the show was cancelled after the 4th season, and tried to wrap up all their loose ends for the season 4 finale. Then they got approved for a 5th season.
I'm not sure why people are surprised about TikTok having censorship features.
It's Chinese. That would have been a day one feature of the platform...
all platforms have censorship features. no one is surprised they exist they are surprised/disgusted that they are now being applied to clearly support MAGA goals.
Iirc on another post some days ago on this issue they said that it was the "rigged election" being the terms censored, not specific to trump.
Still bad, but yeah.
There is no such thing as free speech under capitalism. Got nothing to do with brainwashed sinophobia.
It is not sinophobic to acknowledge the CCP loves censorship.

Original video, created by @hyndsyghts. Even if you don't like tiktok, this is still content created by someone.
heads up the “share > copy link” in tiktok can expose your tiktok username because it tries to get you to follow people who send you videos (like it assumes you are friends). i would edit to use the link below instead if thats at all a concern for you:

TIL, thank you much!
This article has nothing to do with TikTok. Is China in the room with you right now?
the article is what the videos that are being censored from search are about: trump admitting verbally there was election rigging. be nice.
