It would appear that they've changed their strategy with these types of users to one of aggressive reply moderation as I'm regularly seeing content from all of the mentioned "high-risk" categories getting millions of likes and the comment sections are generally positive.

I guess it's hard to know since TikTok has around 1 billion active users. They could be dramatically reducing the set of people who gets suggested such content, and yet that content could still be suggested to millions of people.
Personally, I wouldn't find it strange that the recommender systems are tweaked to different countries and sensibilities as default at first, until it learns more from your own viewing patterns and refines itself.
