I want yall to know the censoring on tiktok has gotten worse and as sad as it sounds to mention tiktok, tiktok helped spread awareness about Palestine and Congo, Sudan and Yemen, Afghanistan and more. Please engage with accounts that use the tag or talk about it and keep talking,sharing etc.
No matter how small the account is(of course make sure they're not spreading propaganda) but a lot of bigger accounts get banned, or censored. I've noticed Palestinian creators have had their stuff banned or hacked and I'm seeing more people mentioning congo information not being pushed out as more (deliberately by tiktok and I had my own experience with this) and I'd like to remind you all China does own tiktok [edit: I forget some stuff is not widely known so I don't want to confuse ppl but I meant China owns like a good chunk of tiktok it has a lot of investors etc. I dont want yall to confuse that with the CEO of tiktok. I would not be surprised if thats why China has a lot of influence on the app] And China does own a lot of the mines in Congo.
