TikTok was designed to promote stupid, inane, and self-destructive memes to Americans (westerners in general).

It's the exact opposite of how it works in China. You would never see this kind of stupid shit on Chinese TikTok.

I'm sure there are plenty of people producing interesting stuff on TikTok, Just as with any user submitted content site, but that's not what the algorithm wants to make sure everybody sees.

I don't use it, but the few times it's opened in browser, it's women showing off boobs and butt in the recommended.

I haven't been interested in downloading TikTok until I read this comment.

Opened it up. Second video is boobs and butt.

That just sounds like porn with more Chinese spyware, and I'm assuming less actual nudity.

Softcore porn to lure you into Chinese brainwashing.
