Well nothing new. China has for years since the beginning has banned, Google and ALL of its products, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and even Wikipedia. So it's only right that the US has decided to ban some Chinese social media platforms as well.

It's just going to be a bit hard though for all the Chinese in the USA whose lives are completely dependent on Wechat for communication. Guess they are going to have to find there are other communication tools other than WeChat out there for sending one-liner messages.

Tiktok won't be banned. Too many millenials will create a revolution if its banned.

It's about time...WeChat and TikTok should have never been allowed to enter the USA markets considering China has banned Google, Twitter, Facebook for a long time now.

Bannings and Tariffs led to the great depression.

Some say it led to the Pandemic (creation of biological/germ warfare).

So is our way of responding to china's practices that we don't like to become more like china? That's what we are doing here! If we are going to let the President decide unilaterally what can be on the net and what can't be, we could move to China, Russia, Turkey or Hungary, and enjoy the same .

These social media are propaganda machines. They are used to destroy nations. The Chinese are smart, they will not allow these western companies which they have no control over to be in China, but will take advantage of the west liberalism to brainwash and weaken the west.

China will brainwash their Citizens to love their country and be nationalistic while brainwash the west to hate their own countries and be anti-nationalistic.
