    Come on Jamie - it is always NATIONAL AIRPORT (or DCA in airport code language).    :)

    This is the one area that I lean Libertarian.

     

    It isn't the governments responsibility to police social media for anything other than potential terror threats. If your kids are spending too much time on social media, that's something you should deal with. If you don't like the content they see, again put blockers on the apps. 

     

    The idea that China is using TikTok to dumb down our populace as a way to make us weaker is kind of a hard sell to me, our populace is already dumb enough, they don't need TikTok to help that.

     

    If anything I think I believe this is more of a way for those in power to stop Gen Z from organizing as TikTok has been the predominate way they have been doing that.

     

    Speaking of Gen Z:

    I didn't see the "cutting off internet" part of it. They threatening to cut it off if people access the app? It's not going to go that far anyway, no matter how much I hate Tiktok, and the people that use it for stupid dancing videos or cry videos. Hell, take the whole internet away from everyone. It's only caused division anyway. 

     

    Tiktok sent out this message to users to talk to their local representative (congress) and let them know you want to stop the ban on Tiktok. There were quite a few threats sent to different offices (most likely by children who don't know any better), or messages that say if they ban it then they would kill themselves. I then understood why a ban would be good. People spend far too much time on their "devices". When I get home my phone goes on the charger until the next day, or if I need to take it to the store with me to access music. I spend maybe 10-30 mins a day with my phone. 

     

    Do you get a lot of texts?  Take social media out of it, I could be on my phone for 30+ minutes a day off texting alone.

    It's happening all over the Western world, they want to make you uncomfortable so you are forced to deal with their suffering..at least you have an excuse for being late to work. 

     

    I went to see the National Christmas Tree in December and walking the backside of the White House to get to the path I needed to, there was a small protest happening.  

     

    Fortunately, DC has a transit system that is very good and goes to multiple suburbs.  But, unless you are listening to WTOP (the news station in DC), you may not know about this happening till it is too late.
