TikTok is a privately owned company. Zhang Yiming created the site and is worth $45 billion dollars. Why should he sell it to an American? Should Musk sell X to a Chinese person?
Tiktok ban = authoritarianism

I read that Israel was upset about TikTok and asked Genocide Joe to ban it.
Politicians on both sides were complaining about youth support against Gazan civilians being slaughtered with images spread on TikTok. How dare they not support genocide!!!
The Democratic Party can't figure out why 20 million voters stayed home after they helped arrest and censor college students, ignored pleas from Arab and Muslim voters and human rights advocates.
I liked Battlefield Earth.
Too many people mindlessly repeat the latest talking point from cable news, a political leader or their party which is the reason they can't discuss it. They didn't arrive at their point of view from analysis so they don't fully understand it in order to discuss it. It becomes a sport competition with trolling or insults instead of an interesting discussion or debate. Too bad.
There's much more slavery in the U.S..
Racism makes no sense. Racism from someone claiming to be religious makes no sense.
The problem isn't immigration. It's greedy businessowners who refuse to pay anyone, including Americans, a decent wage. The cure is unions!
I'll add that these same businessowners exploit people in foreign countries by paying below minimum wage and without protections.
Trump is hiring a record number of multimillionaires and billionaires for government administration, therefore expect things to become much worse.
"These are the same people who arrogantly mock those with religious faith. Yet their adherence to the superstions of the blank slate knows no bounds."
A racist who considers itself to have religious faith.
Common folks benefit from cheaper goods and food, jobs from small businesses launched by immigrants, more doctors and other important services, economic growth which helps all Americans because that also further job creation, innovation since they invent things, etc..
Right now, there is a huge shortage of childcare workers which is forcing women out of the job market and making childcare unaffordable. Immigration is needed especially as our population ages and leaves the workforce.
I agree that there is wealth inequality, but that has to do with rich businessowners paying less to the workers, common folks paying more in taxes as rich pay less, losing benefits like pensions and the rich driving up prices in real estate by buying up the property.
Watch what happens as Trump gives his billionaires friends another tax cut, fires federal workers, and kicksout immigrant workers.
She's the same POS Fascist as her father. What she did was rebrand similar to the KKK wearing business suits instead of white sheets and calling themselves white nationalists. She still repeats the same xenophobic bigotry and in bed with other authoritarians but not as outwardly crude as her father. She changed the name of the party and distanced her self from her father a few years ago as her first step at rebranding.
Yes, change the EU from within by turning it into an illiberal, misogynistic, anti-LGBTQ, antidemocratic, white European nationalist and Christian-only organization that would make her ally Putin, Orbán and Trump happy.
She doesn't fool the French who suffered during WW2 from Fascism and Naziism. That's the reason her party is repeatedly rejected by them.
