  • Singapore Slams 'Racist' Grilling of TikTok CEO Over His Nationality and Links to China
    A day after TikTok CEO Shou Chew was questioned in the U.S. Senate, Singaporean social media users have called out the U.S. lawmaker for his questioning. TikTok's Singaporean CEO Shou Chew was repeatedly questioned by U.S. Senator Tom Cotton on his nationality and his links with China. Social media users accused Cotton of racism and poor understanding of Singapore.

    As a Mongolian, I find this attitude of a U.S Senator extremely rude, uneducated, and unintelligent. If Harvard trains such an uneducated rude bully, then the United States' Ivy League university is not so different from the inner city school in the south side of Chicago where troubled and at-risk adolescents go. This Senator named Tom Cotton has the behavior of an at-risk student in inner city school of the United States. The United States' Senators need retention programs that are similar for at-risk youth whose characteristics include emotional or behavioral problems, truancy, low academic performance, showing a lack of interest for academics, and expressing a disconnection from the school environment.

      He is not uneducated, dude actually visited Singapore on a political trip and took photographs with Singaporean politicians. The reason he is doing this is because he is trying to setup a narrative that the CEO is biased towards China with his line of questioning which is a low and despicable thing to do. In another part of the hearing, he uses articles written by mainstream media on TikTok as "evidence" to claim that TikTok answers to China politicians. Shows that America is not a rule of law country.

    Singapore is a separate and independent country. It is not a state of China or Malaysia. Singapore gained independence from Malaysia in 1965 and has since developed into a sovereign nation. It is located at the southern tip of the Malay Peninsula and is known for its thriving economy, multicultural society, and efficient governance.

    • @Jaibee27
      @Jaibee27 Před 4 měsíci +3

      The CEOs main job and responsibility lies in making money for the companys investors founders and parent company. All of which are Chinese. The communist party has control over all of them. So yes the CEO does have an affiliation even if he is from Singapore. The reason he asked if he has applied for American citizenship is because the Chinese don't allow dual citizenship with the west. China is trying to make countries like Taiwan and Singapore and the philippines a part of their motherland. They use social media to influence public opinion. Therefore the CCP potentially has the power to use tiktok to cause riots in USA through disinformation. It is not racist because all business people including white men can have an affiliation by accepting bribes or by being coerced or blackmailed.

      Just imagine if the CEO asked him back if he was Russian & all the same question but substitute the word China with Russia. Racism does not distinguish from someone's education; it is based on ignorance and hate. Many Asians probably still haven't learned their lesson during COVID (or anti-Japanese sentiment during 80s) about how the US and the West, especially in the US, that they don't discriminate, as long as you are Asian-looking, you are from "China" and will be attacked. When the hostility against China reaches a level close to the level of war, no Asians will be safe in the US, and hate crimes against Asians will be many times worse than the COVID level.

      It has been like this since end of world war 2. Military Industrial complex has too much interest to stop selling weapons. Like Eisenhower warned on Jan 17, 1961. Everyone loved US before 1950s, but if you go out now, guess how many countries still like US.

    Ask Tom Cotton who is paying him to act the fool at the Senate hearing? And how much is he paid to act the idiot? Cotton must think that people are fooled by his passionate questioning.
