I agree with you, but I'm assuming malice because I don't think that stupidity adequately explains their behavior. I think that, to them, the problem isn't propaganda and espionage, it's Chinese propaganda and Chinese espionage where American propaganda and American espionage should be. That's why they're not making what tiktok does illegal, and that's why they're trying to force a sale rather than actually banning it.
