      Bigger problems like the republicans and other far-right parties attacking reproductive rights? Yeah, you’re right.

          Yes it is. Why do you think thah TikTok removes that content in the first place? It 's because they are afraid to give paranoid, xenophobic, republicans any “reason” to ban them.

          I actuallyethink that you are trying to derail the discussion into “you showld never trust tiktok”.

            TikTok is a cancer that always does this. It is a tool for censorship, propaganda and population control. You should never use TikTok. It is extremely unethical to do so.

    Whenever TikTok sees something that is remotely negative, they will fight at all cost to make sure it doesn’t exist on their platform. I have seen TikTok videos having to censor the word “orphanage” because according to TikTok that is a no-no word LOL

    Tiktok is the absolute worst at irrational censorship. It’s a shame because the site is immensely popular and that means it is full of very interesting content. Yet, this is far from the first unreasonable thing they’ve been removing. It’s well known how Tiktok users came up with alternative words to circumvent words that were likely to get their content removed (e.g., “unalived” instead of “killed”).
