Free speech in AmeriKKKa is looking good! Americans should only rely on true, red-blooded, patriotic, and megacorporations like Microsoft and Google with their data!

Another bill that was added on was an Israel aid bill that sends Israel and the IDF a further 26.3 billion dollars.

    It’s so obvious that this was expedited because Israel asked them to. I see people on Reddit and Twitter still acting like this is a good thing and I’m not sure how many of them are just stupid and how many of them are bad actors. Anyone talking about TikTok only being banned because it’s “Chinese Spyware” is a fool.

      An Israel funding bill was one of the other bills shoved into this one.

      Israel is going to get an additional 26.3 billion dollars in aid because of this passing.

      Obviously you haven’t considered that the ban is a wonderful thing because China Bad. Therefore any other argument is moot.

      I have actually seen a few people saying that only American social media companies should be allowed to operate in the US. Yet somehow China is the dystopia.
