My son showed me a TikTok trolling event that is happening today. 7 million people "followed" a content creator just so they could all unfollow him at the same time (today) to make him the most unfollowed of all time. It made me so depressed. They're doing it because his content is "cringy".

Why the fuck can't they use this power to protect people or do something kind or meaningful?

Tell your son we all like his style. Then tomorrow say it was a lie and we think he's a dipshit.

My son is not participating. But I guess I still could

Then skip second part. I'm proud of him.

Idk, who's the content creator? Was their content actually cringe as in posting neckbeard/incel/Tankie crap? If that's the case then I'd argue that maybe they did utilize their power for something meaningful

Classic bullying.

This power you’re referring to is pressing a button on a phone. Protecting people is hard
