How exactly does using TikTok help China silence millions of camped Uyghurs? If we all switched to Facebook would their voices be heard?

Do you agree that all Chinese companies (even foreign ones operating in China), state owned or not, has to do whatever CCP wants?

If you do, you already have the answer. If you don't, I suggest you get to know a bit more about China before CCP's alternative facts become the facts.

Please don't use HN for nationalistic flamewar. It's against the site rules and we ban accounts that are used primarily for this.

No. However you would probably still be able to talk about them on your social media in five years.

I'm genuinely curious if posts relating to China's treatment of Uyghurs are already meeting censors on tik tok.
