If anything, the content on TikTok itself is far more inoccuous than what has been already allowed to run amok on other social media platforms. Can anybody honestly argue that the silly dance numbers and "funny" vines on TikTok are more dangerous than the toxic political propaganda on FB, Whatsapp and Youtube?

I can believe it just fine. It is very predictable behavior.

There’s enough political propaganda on TikTok too. It just happens to be newer than the rest.
