    So you’re big “Gotcha” moment was to illustrate you didn’t understand the concepts after they were explained to you. That science is wrong because you found a video with views on it?

      That “sCiENcE” being:

      NCRI began by analyzing differences between Instagram and TikTok hashtag use around popular culture icons and content. NCRI reasoned that the wide reach of platforms like Instagram and TikTok should ensure comparable use of popular culture hashtags.

      So they work off the assumption that tiktok and instagram would have similar amounts of usage for the same hashtags. Fucking why? Did they not think different platforms would have different audiences?

      Meanwhile I posted a clear example that demonstrates that not only do they not suppress content critical of China, they actually suppress content of certain sensitive topics for the US. You’d know that if you clicked the link, but you can’t even be bothered to read your own link, so I guess my expectations of you were too high.

        “Fucking why? Did they not think different platforms would have different audiences?”

        That difference amounts to nothing past hundreds of millions of users, much less constrained to US Based statistics. Basically the demographics would average out at that sample size.

          People don’t go to tiktok for the same reasons as instagram. It’s not just a function of number of people. There are a lot of people on facebook but it’s got a reputation as boomerville for a reason.
