Poor celebrities. Having their voice stifled by foreign governments on a platform they helped promote.

It's their own government, at least for US citizens since TikTok was forced to sell their business in the US.

First, they’re screaming OH, THE HUMANITY! over censorship before their favorite puppets take the wheel. Then, they’re the first ones ridiculing anyone else for complaining about the exact same thing.

You're missing the point, celebrities just happen to have a huge reach and noticed the reach being cut.

This probably means everyone else is also getting their reach crippled.

Remember that even with clear video evidence, the administration lies about the events and tries to spin it as domestic terrorism.

So imagine what they are doing, and will do, without video evidence.

This is probably one of the darkest times in America... You have an administration that normalizes lying and violence, and a tens of millions of Americans that are choosing to close their eyes and suspend their morals because they're scared and confused.

It's being stifled by their own government. US TikTok has been taken over by a government-linked oligarch.
