    I’m in my early 20s and I personally see how TikTok is making people chronically addicted and hypnotized every single day. And the majority of videos that goes viral are the toxic ones, not the ones spreading positivity. It definitely needs to go

      He is a grifter too. I've never been on tiktok and i don't have twitter, but those right wing influencers who want tiktok banned just want the people who are on it directed to the platform they get their audience.
      It's just a grift man, don't be guilible. The only thing they care about is money and how many people they can brainwash with their content.

      I think rogues in China find great pleasure in their creative methods of mind control on USA citizens. If we could know their thoughts, I think we would learn they are having re-occuring thoughts about our ignorance.
      There is an app called News Break. It is owned by a Chinese man. It advertises by focusing on its local news feature.. It includes local news which is helpful. However, 99% of the articles are about pedophiles + crazy things ppl do + controversial things that draw ppl into arguments in the comments.
      I deleted the app because it was distracting + it was possibly a mind control tactic to target small minded ppl who don't think. It made it seem to me like the entire world is a lost cause because of the bad news. It also seemed to me to be like a baby sitter while damages to our nation are actively in place in the background.
      Life is a gift & I am building a strong resistance against distractions while being on guard against Chinese interference.

You'd stop using all forms of social media and limit youtube as much as you can.

    I’m battling this app with my 14 year old daughter who is addicted to this platform like a gambler or drug addict. The repetitive messaging of moronic people or the sexualisation of children on the platform is sickening. We’ve blocked the app, taken it off her phone but she’ll argue she can’t communicate with her friends and we end up arguing over time on this app. I’m hearing the same from so many parents as our kids are literally becoming more stupid and sexualised before our eyes. This video has only reinforced TikTok is evil and a sweeping cancer across our youth, it needs to be banned immediately.

      It the cultural different between america and china. All social media use pretty similar algorithms. If u feed the algorithm with more useless entertainment. So what u get is that useless entertainment that become the standard of social engineering.
      Beside if america government want to make any social media companies to give more educational material, they actually can by using their authority and making law about that. But i never heard or saw america government do that.
      Cos educational material is not profitable for the companies that why the government never make law that regulates online content.

Grown men and women, obsessing over how they’re going to go viral on tik tok/ig instead of focusing on the fundamentals of selling real estate and growing a business. It’s really weird to see. Ik people who refuse to do things like cold calling/door knocking/mailers, networking etc. and instead are focusing the majority of their time trying to make corny reels and “blow up”. People have built their whole business off not being a great salesman, but making social media content. It’s cool n all I guess, but I keep thinking, long term, what’s gonna happen if tik tok or even ig reels are no longer popular (look at vine) a lot of these agents are going to lose their massive followings and a good majority of their business overnight.

    I am so glad it's not me. I thought that I had really screwed my stuff up, but seeing that you are getting so few views on TikTok makes me know this is not something personal about me and that I'm better to focus on other social media and just give up on it. It's too unreliable. Takes me on an emotional rollercoaster when one video takes off and then the next doesn't get any views. I'm tired of wasting my time on TikTok

    • @statusquoreject
      @statusquoreject Před rokem

      The problem isn’t how many views you get or don’t get…. It’s that you’re emotionally invested in a toxic platform and what it’s doing to the dopamine response in your brain. Google it. All social media is toxic and bad for you. You don’t understand the real problem at hand or this video if you think just moving to some other social media platform is the solution. The solution is to not use social media at all and be centered and mature enough to not live your life through views or likes. Wise adults shouldn’t be living their lives like a junior high popularity contest.

      Don't be naïve, these people are ALL grifters who pretend to know what they are talking about eventhough most of them have no level of expertise in those fields.

However no one seems really care and realized the impact on their brain.

      It’s BS content. In the same breath he acknowledged that the patriot act does the same thing but he’s not outrage. He’s a m0r0n!
