Oh you silly! The American corporations ARE the government at this point. But your point is valid either way. I don't think it's just about racism though. I think they want our data back in the US market. None of our corporate overlords can dip their greedy little fingers into TikTok data and that is very upsetting for them.

Even if someone hates TikTok for whatever reason this should still piss them off. They tried to do this twice and the people said NO both times. To the extent that they spread a bunch of bs rhetoric claiming people were forced to call their representatives last time because they got so much immediate push back lol. Nobody was forced to do anything. A notification was sent to TikTok inboxes telling people about the vote and offering to help them contact their local reps about it. A bunch of people exercised their rights to have a voice and did just that. That was it. That's what happened.

Now here we are. In an incredibly undemocratic move, they forced the ban through anyway.

Not being aware something doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Sounds gross to me but I wouldn't even be mildly surprised if it existed

I don't know how familiar you are with salad dressing but you don't usually pour the entire batch of dressing on one salad lol

I hated it but my teacher just had us read a book quietly and then tested us on it. Almost no interaction at all other than occasionally making us take turns reading it out loud which also just kinda sucks

Do you not see how weird it looks? We don't use typewriters anymore you're being silly

What other reason would you suggest as to why he would assume that he knows more than her or that she couldn't be the person that he's referring to? Clearly he didn't even know her name yet so what did he have to go by to draw those conclusions? It obviously wasn't her lack of knowledge on the subject that they were discussing now was it?

No, it's not. I get the feeling you're not very active in communities that are against the genocide if you actually think that.

I don't know why Nintendo won't just give us a proper Paper Mario again. What is their problem? It's so annoying. Bug Fables was fantastic though definitely hard agree.

Because we deserve a little god damn joy in our life without some asshole billionaires paying to eradicate it for their own gain. That's why.

Getting woken up by that was the worst too because now you're awake and bored :(
