There’s certainly a larger anti-zionist crowd on the app, but western tiktok is 100% still run by neoliberal ghouls

I’ve reported blatantly fascist stuff on the platform before; a comment saying race mixing is immoral, a comment saying desegregation ruined America, a video saying Gaza should be turned into a parking lot, and I’ve ALWAYS ended up getting the “we’ve reviewed your report and found no violation” thing. Exact same shit I’ve gotten with Instagram, Reddit, and pre-Musk Twitter

Meanwhile today I commented this at a The Strokes fan with an Israeli flag in their name, and fully ratio’d them before getting this notification a few hours later:

    I agree that the method of control you outlined is a facet of exerting influence over the media. Manipulating these specialized career holders can be a good way to maintain a cohesive media narrative.
