I honestly don't like tiktok but this is clearly done to censor the pro palestine content and for exposing the US gov along many others as hypocrites
This has been discussed way longer than 10/7/2023.
What happened on July 10th, 2023?
Obligatory XKCD
Ah yeah. I deserve that but to be fair the OP story (not the comment I replied to) is about what's happening in the US!
And to be fair, our timestamps suck.
Zero arguments there!
True, I remember talks about it being acquired by a US company but I think this really pushed it over the edge for them
but curiously now is when it was acted on.
yep. Facebook's still running strong, and that company has been a part of how many fucking genocides now?
Clearly 🙃
