  • It’s one of the only platforms that doesn’t actively suppress left wing views with its algorithm.

    I’d be fine with EU style regulations on social media, or depending on how it’s written, a more broader ban of social media in general. But banning tiktok only will do nothing to address the concerns you raised. Instead it just funnels people into social media ecosystems that greatly favor right wing sentiment and allow easy access for the 3 letter agencies.

    It’s about maintaining the ability to manufacturer consent. Tiktok presents a hurdle to that.


  • It’s about forcing all students into public school when they aren’t all on the same level when it comes to intelligence or capability to learn

    Huh? Don’t most public schools offer various levels of the same subject for this reason? Like remedial, honors, AP, etc. In what way is this problem solved by private schools? Unless you’re implying that home schooling solves this problem, which yeah sure if one of the parents works full time teaching their children and also has a high level of education themself as well as the relevant skills. Not something that can actually be scaled out across the country. And history has shown that homeschooling typically leads to inferior education.

    The schools that spend the least per student have the best scores

    Yeah that doesn’t sound right at all. You got a source?

    Lol, they’ll blame us for the Harris defeat. Maybe once Trump comes into power they’ll turn their hate towards him and get a little progressive again for a while. Only to learn nothing and revert back to their reactionary ways next election cycle. The silver lining is, each time they do this stupid bullshit, the American left gains a few more comrades.

    No one is saying it will. Lots of folks in leftist spaces advocate for getting in the streets, unionizing your workplace, and organizing in socialist organizations. If you’re a socialist, it’s time to find a socialist organization to join. Can’t find any local chapters? Start your own. Don’t like any local organizations? Join one and work to improve it.
