TikTok is a platform, not press. I just wish they were banning the other walled gardens too.

These are advertisement platforms. Not free speech platforms.

Thatโ€™s your words

Can we have like serious discussion without these sensationalising but dumb quips? Is there any adult here at all in this room who would be willing to have a nice conversation about the dangers of safety vs control?
