Bill passed through US House of Representatives that would ban TikTok before POTUS election

As this new Cold War progresses across the world China and its techno-surveillance state has been a growing topic of interest for a number of reasons. And the video hosting company TikTok is one of them.

The platform is owned by Beijing-based tech company, ByteDance, co-founded by internet entrepreneur Zhang Yiming and has been the subject of numerous theories about how it may be weaponized against the United States and its citizens in order to weaken the economy and socially engineer Americans.

As an example, the countless number of women who use it as a means of income for what amounts to be a form of online prostitution, luring in multitudes of men and promoting a life of promiscuity is understandably seen as a means of turning Americans away from having traditional families.

Now there is a piece of legislation that has been passed through the U.S. House of Representatives that many people are claiming would ban TikTok in the United States.

While on the surface, it may seem like the legislators who passed it may be taking some stance against the weaponization of TikTok, it is also convenient this bill is being passed just months before the next U.S. presidential election.

And there is also good reason to believe it's being used as another way of controlling the flow of online information that will be received by voters in the country who are on the fence. This idea also doesn't seem too far-fetched considering how much information there is on the platform that exposes the corruption of many members of the Democratic Party.

As an Associated Press article points out, experts have claimed it will be challenging "...ByteDance to sell TikTok in a few months."

The same article also cites a report by The Office of the Director of National Intelligence warning that TikTok was used by the Chinese government to influence the U.S. 2022 elections.

In order for the bill to become law it needs to be passed by the United States Senate. If and when it's passed, Biden has stated he would sign it into law. According to AP, after that happened, "...ByteDance would have 180 days to sell TikTok to a qualified buyer."

Meanwhile, China owns 380,000 acres of land in the United States and has been assisting in fueling the country's fentanyl crisis largely through many of the U.S. open border policies.

Also, unless I am mistaken, there doesn’t seem to be too many efforts being made to pass legislation that would minimize the influence Facebook has in controlling the outcome of the 2024 U.S. election.
