A Vital Question On This New, Bipartisan TikTok Ban
A Vital Question On This New, Bipartisan TikTok Ban

Glenn Greenwald - System Update
Pro-Israel lobbyist director Jonathan Greenblatt said in a leaked phone call “We really have a TikTok problem” in the United States.
The Anti Defamation League (ADL) CEO was speaking about the difficulty the colonialists face in controlling the narrative for young people. Greenblatt suggested that the warmongers had been wrongly focusing on left-wingers who sympathise with Palestine:
Cause again like we’ve been chasing this left/ right divide. It’s the wrong game. The real game is the next generation.
Polling shows U.S. youth are particularly dissatisfied with the nation’s approach to Israel.
Some U.S. lawmakers have been pushing anti-TikTok sentiment for awhile. But the recent bill potentially banning TikTok in the U.S., which passed the House, seems to be a pressing issue because of Israel and Palestine.
President Joe Biden is under increasing pressure over covering for the genocide of Palestinians, where Israel has killed over 11,000 children. The difficulty in pretending children are terrorists has put the U.S. in a tricky spot.
This is especially so when the U.S. provides Israel with $3.3 billion in annual funds and continues to sell the state weapons. That’s while the International Court of Justice (ICJ) has found it’s “plausible” Israel is committing genocide.
In November, 25 Republicans signed a letter denouncing what they called a “deluge of pro-Hamas content” on TikTok. Republican senator Josh Hawley, meanwhile, said there’s “ubiquity of anti-Israel content on TikTok”.
Another Republican representative complained about the “raw news” young people were getting on the platform. Republicans control the house with a slim majority. And Biden has said he will sign the bill if it reaches him.
