What do you think "low quality" means if not "what people don't like"?

TikTok doesn't care who made it; they care how the video looks.

This isn't about content being low quality or not liked. It's about content containing specific things that TikTok moderators were told to look out for.

There is plenty of extremely high quality content made by people who appear fat, poor, old, disabled, ugly, etc in their videos.
