On who a TikTok ban would hurt
: For me, I have the biggest platform on TikTok, but I’ll be okay if it’s gone. But I always say when people are like, “Hell yeah, I hate TikTok, blah blah blah,” the first people I think of are the 7,000 U.S.-based TikTok employees. I just don’t want anyone to lose their job. And if TikTok gets banned, they’re not going to have a job. That’s always who I’m rooting for, why [I hope] it doesn’t get banned.: And, like, every small business that TikTok promotes and drives sales for. [And] what will Amazon do? Do you know how much money Amazon makes on storefronts just from TikTok? No [chance] that their lobbyists aren’t barking up Trump’s tree right now.On content moderation
: I’ve gotten the weirdest community guideline [violations on TikTok]. Like we were gonna go to Egypt for our honeymoon, and I said the word “Egypt” on a livestream, and it completely shut down the live. I was like, whoa, what is this? And it was [for] terrorism speech! I was like, are you serious? This is actually crazy.On what the next TikTok will look like
: Who’s going to replace TikTok? I think it’s not necessarily gonna be about the algorithm. It’s not about who will replace TikTok in terms of short-form media, like a quick 30-second video. It is going to be the app that makes it easiest to film and edit and post a video in five minutes or less. If you’ve ever tried making an Instagram reel, a YouTube short on the app…: Horrible!: Yes! I was at one of those big media platforms earlier this year and they wanted us to post a short-form video. And I was talking to one of the employees, and I’m like, “Hey, how do I just make the text on screen disappear after like three seconds?” And they’re like, “Oh, we don’t have that feature yet. But honestly, just go over to TikTok, screen record it, and then post it here.”And I think the app that replaces TikTok if it gets banned—and who knows now, with Trump loving it and stuff—but the app that replaces TikTok isn’t going to be the best algorithm, isn’t going to be the best whatever. It’s going to be the one that makes it easiest to edit and post.
On TikTok competitors, and turning to Substack for reputable, high-quality content
: [Competing video apps] Lemonade and Clapper are too similar to TikTok. They’re not disruptive enough. Every platform that comes around that’s disruptive is what ends up being the future. So I sometimes see that with Substack—because a lot of people that I talk to are like, “Why would anyone pay for creators’ videos?”—but that pushback is telling me there’s something there.: And the amount of people that have come over already and are like, “Oh, this is so refreshing and different.” It’s almost closer to Apple News for me than it is to anything else, because this is where I get my news from. It’s where I get reputable, high-quality content that’s like—and not that I read real news, but I’m like, I need to hear about, like, Sabrina Carpenter. I want to hear about [Prince] Harry and Meghan [Markle]. Like, I subscribe to the New York Times for recipes, and I’m using Substack instead now. It’s very different from TikTok.On finding a reliable income stream on Substack
: So what made you go from Instagram to Substack? Because you’re really big on Instagram. So what was the deciding factor for you?: Oh my god. This is something I feel like I can’t talk about on TikTok for some reason. But the whole agency dynamic of social media is wild.So, I was signed with an agency and I had left for … reasons. I felt like I didn’t really own any of my content, and I didn’t have any revenue that I could take for myself. Most agency contracts have something called a “sunset clause,” where if you work with a brand while you’re signed with this agency, they get to take a cut of that brand deal for a certain period of time, even after you’re not working with them [anymore].
So I had a six-month sunset clause, and I was like, I need something that I own in full, that’s my content. If I don’t have an agency, if TikTok goes away, if something happens, I own it. You know? And I have a recurring revenue stream.
And the way brand deals are, there will be months where you make six months’ worth of income. There’ll be weeks where you make six months’ worth of income! And then there will be three months where you don’t make a penny. And the idea of like, raising a family, or owning a house, or trying to live a life—like, you can’t plan for anything. There’s no reliability. It’s just really, really hard. I’m not saying it’s not good money, but who knows how long it’s gonna last?
And Substack fixed all of that in one app. It’s insane.
Ed.: This conversation has been edited for length and clarity.
Yes, Coco, I totally relate to your concern about those TikTok jobs. I have the same concerns about the people in the cocaine business. If cocaine were totally banned, tens of thousands of hard working people would lose their good incomes. Same with people work hard in those AR15 gun factories. They strive hard every day to make a good living. If we ban those guns, what ever will they do? Hard questions here....
I get where you're coming from. But my daughter's an artist whose largest following is on tiktok where she draws and paints live. This drives most of her online sales. So there's that aspect too.
Your daughter should have learned by now to not put all it eggs in one basket.
Who said all her eggs are in one basket? I said tiktok is where she has the largest following.
Why does she need a following? Is she a female version of the Pied Piper?
No more than you're a version of the joker
sigh bullies.
Some people have a hugely broad definition of the word bully.
Anyone who comments in a way that challenges or points out the stupidity of a person's response, drives home a point in a passionate way, or is assertive or jokes by creating mild derision about a response is a bully.
These are the people who cried when Trump was re-elected. These are the people who Ricky Gervais keeps telling, "It's a joke. If you're offended, I don't care!"
These people are woke lefties who invented the word "woke," but now it's turned against them, denying it exists.
LOL, you asked a stupid question trying to get a reaction from people, so you are a bully of sorts.
The worst I have ever seen no, you won't win that award, I'll give you that.
Now if you were trying to be sarcastic, even then it wouldn't have been funny to me.
You don't know WHY a channel needs a following?
Do I have to spell it out for you my dear?
I don't watch your mainstream fake BS like Gervais & they aren't leftists, my new word for them are COMMUNISTS. Maybe even marxists, but I'm still trying to figure out what that means so I can definite it better.
I don't believe in your SLAVE politics. You like being a slave, I don't. I'm a FIGHTER, NOT A COWARD.
And my dear, I just scrolled up. You do know I wasn't even referring/replying to your comment, right?
You still haven't answered the question. Does she have political ambitious or is she a budding David Koresh?
Darlin' I have no idea what you are talking about. I never saw your question, I don't even know the girl(s) & I don't answer questions I know nothing about because I value my opinion & TRUTH.
I don't go onto TT, I don't know where I saw this, nor does it matter, I just clicked on it b/c I keep track of the lies spread about TT & wondered if they had some news to contribute.
I was NOT talking to you, I was talking to the other guy. You budded in & clearly have nothing better to do with your life than try to get people to join in on your boring life.
This is my last message b/c I'm working to fight in this war unlike you.
Not into my food. I grow my own and buy from farmers who I can talk to about what goes into my food.
So the farmer's pet dog craps on your food then?
I like my food to glow in the dark! Bird seed is easy to grow.
But here you are just randomly responding to people with stupid comments, so maybe you aren't a bully, maybe you are just stupid, bird seed or not.
You are lonely, aren't you?
Too much time on your hands?
Maybe you need to go work for evil trumpet so you can go kill all of Humanity & start all the wars he & the evils have planned.
sigh
With ten grandchildren, the eldest being 15, sometimes wish I was lonely
...or the same colour on her pallet.
When you're an artist, aren't you supposed to suffer?
We all suffer from different things. For some it's lack of reading comprehension. For others it's lack of empathy. The list goes on ...
I really don’t have anything very helpful to add to the conversation right at this moment, but when I saw the name you are using, it made me smile, and I wish I had thought of it. Bravo!
I don't suffer from anything really, maybe a bit of joint pain at 77 but boy-oh-boy, it's difficult having empathy for narcissists.
You are old, ok, but don't be so grumpy
When a comment is pre-faced with out-of-context mention of physical pain, you can be sure it will be followed by a plea for empathy combined with an accusatory projection of narcissism. A truly classic combo!
Yep! Poooooor little meeeeee.
I don't see either myself or my daughter as narcissistic ... but then I probably wouldn't if I was one. It's a conundrum for sure! Personally I'd rather the government didn't decide which media platforms I can see. But that could just be the narcissism speaking. Or my determination to living like the free human being I was intended to be. Always hard to know.
First, you have to really understand how EVIL the mafia gov't is, then you have to understand who CONTROLS all mafia gov'ts worldwide, then things will start to make sense.
Here's some evidence for you.

I'm a Kiwi. Our govt is great. Most Yanks think a Trump government is great too. It's a bugger this democracy thing, isn't it.
I read the first one, and it said ourfreedonsociety people love bamboo toilet paper.
Jesus, we're rooted!
I well understand that which is why I don't want government deciding which platforms I'm allowed to see
Great. Just stop bleating about it.
Take care not to eat too much while you're down this rabbit hole. You may not be able to squeeze out.
So far so good
I hope.
She saved all her content videos.That at which she can't transfer smoothly and then it might even help her to start posting videos left About her transitioning over to a new platform but for they shut down tik tok
That's right. Got lemons, make lemonade 😋
Ask people that were artists under maos cultural revolution what they did when they wanted freedom of expression.
Alright, I’ll bite. What did they do?
When all you have is TikTok hammer, every tik is a nail. Substack is a swiss-army knife.
Careful: Leatherman and LM clones outsell Swiss Army Knives. I grew up on the S.A.Knife "platform". I am finding I like the LM platform better.
Leathermen are great for opening wine too (:
Very cute !
Yes!!!
Thanks for your support Jenni! (:
Are you comparing criminality and murder to TikTok? Didn’t see this comment until now but thanks for the laugh today!
It's a hard world out there. My kinda satire.
This too: Frances Leader stated on 12/08/24 "The way things are going on Substack (in respect of their relationship with Stripe and the consequent political pressure levied against writers) I don't know how much longer my presence here will be tolerated. It is noticeable to me that when my following exceeded 10,000 on Facebook, Twitter and Discord my accounts were abruptly deleted. I suspect that something similar is about to occur here."
Further, when asked what is Stripe, she explains, "It is a financial organiser which charges exorbitant rates for transferring money from one account to another. I dislike it immensely but Substack insists upon using it".
It sounds like a great way to limit the number of pseudo-intellectuals.
Great tongue-in-cheek, Kent!
Kent is my HERO!
Knowing how influencers operate, I figure the American-based TikTok developers were never spared a second thought before they could be used for emotional brownie points.
Brilliant !! This comment is the reason I subscribe 👌😎
Careful there edgy-boy, we'll end up banning snarky internet goblins.
You know substack is an anagram for Suck_At_BS ?
.
Some subscriptions are spendy.

Or suck a ball sack...

not even subst-Yack or even Subst-Hack.

More chatbots than Ukrainian social media.

Brilliant 👌 This comment is what Substack I
I love.
D that she mentioned that as well
Exactly. Well said Kent.
(Solution to the picky eater problem - starve 'em for a week.)
Oh please please spare us TikTokers and Instas coming to Substack. This has been a haven for thoughtful, well-written, intelligent, respectful content and interaction with both authors and readers. Yeah, yeah, there are some on TikTok/Insta. I knew it wouldn't last here, so I'll continue to enjoy for as long as possible. No personal offense to anyone.
Hard agree.
Respectfully put. Couldn't agree more. I'm a little saddened by this whole thing.
I hope it stays that way too!
Yes… the Substack posts and content is intelligent content .. TicToc’ers have this immature “High school Valley/Girl rhetoric and drama… as the write or speak“. ughhh, verses the writers with substance on Substack.. It is no doubt maturity of TicToc’er will improve with age and experience.. Hopefully. Time will tell, but it is a process and takes time. 👍
My thoughts: why not? They will make Substack THE place to go for all the refugees of TikTok and maybe one day YouTube. It wil be like old media: the popular stuff will subside the rest of us churning out high-fallutin’ thought pieces read by a much smaller audience.
Is it for those kind of people? If that's the case then, as Capt. Oates said to Scott " I am just going out and may be some time."
These young girls have no clue about the real world we live in.
Please send help.
Please don’t put this stuff in my inbox
👏
Was thinking the exact same thing. Seems like I might be needing to find a new platform for writing.
Removing the word 'like' from the presentation would cut about 3 minutes.
Yeah, like, yeah. I agree like. Too many likes lower the IQ of the liker, like, plus the reader like. Ignorance is.......like.....bliss, like!
Lol!!!
I couldn't bear to listen/read the transcript because of the childish use of the word 'like' every few seconds. Gawd, I'm so glad I'm not young anymore. Give me strength to bear it all. I'm pretty tech savvy but I seriously didn't understand what they were going on about,😭
I begrudgingly started listening to it. I pressed stop in the middle.
I ventured to Substack to get far away from this superficial consumer garbage. Nina’s (above) statement, “This has been a haven for thoughtful, well-written, intelligent, respectful content….” Is WHY I JOINED Substack.
I have noticed the creeping in of all the entities and mindlessness in the last couple of weeks.
I assume this is the prelude to the end a quality platform.
Like but don't like that you nailed it. The great American inevitably is that eventually the bigger fish will buy out/capture/own the smaller fish.
I attempt satire both as a mental health survival tool and to hold a mirror up to wound licking mutual admiration fellows. Sometimes (but rarely :-) it's funny, other times it's not comfortable for the reader.
There's way too much boiling frog going on in these commiseration powwows. If some of their time spent posting would instead be allocated to learning our Constitution the knowledge gained could and should be used to challenge our courts and de facto public functionaries.
Think you've got problems. Read up on the courts in New Zealand.
Agreed ✌🏻
I would blame corrupt politicians for getting rid of TikTok in general.
I couldn't agree more.
Crap education so like takes care of a stunted vocab:
Filler: It often acts as a filler word similar to "um" or "uh," providing the speaker a moment to think. For example, "I was, like, walking to the store..." Could have left it out here
Approximation: "Like" can indicate that what follows is not an exact number or description. For example, "There were like a hundred people at the party." They haven't heard of approximately or about or thereabouts or more or less.
Emphasis or Focus: It can emphasize a particular word or phrase. For example, "It's, like, the best movie ever." Don't know "As far as I am concerned," or definitely or without a doubt or undoubtedly or ( This'll fool 'em) indubitably.
Quoting Speech or Thoughts: "Like" is used to introduce quoted speech or thoughts. For example, "He was like, 'What are you doing here?'" He exclaimed...or He blurted out... or He exclaimed... or He proclaimed.
Hedging: It softens statements, making them seem less direct or assertive. For example, "I think it's, like, too much work." This is just plain bloody wokesterville stuff.
I counted 15 Valley Girl “likes” from Violet but only five from Coco.
Coco needs to get her act together. Everyone will think she's gone woke!
Not a big TikTok fan.
But, if it is really a National security threat and if China is really "stealing" the details of members, then I think it should be banned.
We need to look at the bigger picture here, not for ourselves, but for our own personal and national security.
It was NEVER about national security. It’s about our corrupt politicians being loyal to Israel & to Benjamin Netanyahu (Bibi) in which he wants TikTok banned because he doesn’t want people catching on to his atrocity for genocide against Palestinians & Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, etc. (& our politicians are ALSO at fault for funding & supporting Israel & Bibi for genocide in general).
Plus in which Mark Zuckerberg has paid off politicians to push them to ban TT because he wants to get rid of it’s biggest competition, all because FaceBook is floundering.
Yeah that’s exactly what communist Chinese party wants you to think.
“Communist Chinese Party.” Yikes, spoken like someone being brainwashed & Indoctrinated by corrupt, career politicians & corporate, mainstream media/legacy media.
Get some critical thinking skills & learn to think for yourself instead of being blinded by them & by statism.
This sounds like projection. Typical communist
TikTok is very different in China than it is in the US or for that matter, the rest of the world - this is INTENTIONAL.
BytDance, who own both TikTok and Douyin (China’s version of TikTok), offers a different version of the social media app that is unavailable to the rest of the world, especially for children. They ship an addictive, opium version oversea and have a sanitized, sweeter version for Chinese consumption.
In China kids, if they're under 14 years old, will see science experiments they can do at home, museum exhibits, patriotism videos and educational and animal videos.
Most adult fare is about beauty and shopping, not too different than the US, but is far more tightly controlled.
China recognized years ago that it's easy to influence a child's development by getting in really early - nice patriots at home and brain dead, shopping addicted screen junkies overseas.
Enemy weakened = job done.
Organized domestic corruption, not "the Chinese," stole our representative democratic republic and gave us two plutocratic parties that are now our government.
Awesome… you sound closely to the Substack writers!! !
Thank You!!!
Oops. I stumbled into a rabbit holer!
I’m not the one who’s in a brainwashed, statism cult thinking that our corrupt politicians, our government, & corporate, mainstream media/legacy media cares about us & our rights like blind, propagandized sheep.
Yes they have a name for yiu: useful idiot
Anarchists were the first to be executed after the Bolshevik revolution
Well am I surprised. It actually took until at least half way down the comments section for some twit to say it's about the poor Palestinians - thought it would happen much sooner than that.
And thanks for exposing yourself as a zionist.
Thank you - I am a proud Zionist.
You're welcome.
You shouldn’t be. Zionists like you are absolutely despicable.
Despicable?
Yea - much like HAMAS you mean?
The same HAMAS that absolutely hoodwinked the poor Palestinians who voted them absolute power.
The same HAMAS that used 'their people' as human shields.
The same HAMAS that funneled foreign aid into building miles of tunnels.
The same HAMAS that stopped foreign food and medical aid from getting to the Palestinian people?
War in Palestine would have ended the moment the hostages were released.
Let's talk more.
Oh Yeah ...the whole world is out of step with Zionist ethnic cleansing and needs to get back in step with it. Awww...what's a little genocide among plutocrats and oligarchs?
You can always tell a communist the way they keep changing subject - a wheel of perpetual outrage.
😀😀😀👋
Is this some kind of April Fool's "content?"
Oh that's right, today is the Winter Solstice, when the scalawag character, the opposite of Santa Claus, plays tricks.
The question is only how long Substack will be able to defend itself against government control.
The only control you have to worry about is from Democrats....
Pretty much any adult who depends on TikTok is a loser anyway. Sure, that sounds harsh, but it's pretty clear from the content on TikTok that the audience is mostly children, or people with the maturity of a child (or an IQ equal to the temperature of typical room in the winter).
Perhaps we should allow China tyrants to control our news and media as well, so they can pollute the minds of more Americans with their leftist, freedom-killing propaganda.
"Harsh!" Listen to yourself, and then re-run the IQ measure. ...Disinformation here.
Aw...Karen, err, Annie, why so upset? Was I hitting a little too close to home? Do you deny that TikTok started out as a forum for kids sharing their goofy 30 seconds dances? Real quality content there, right?

Banning TransTok will do a lot to shut down the influence of criminally irresponsible “trans” activists talking mentally ill teens into getting their genitalia mutilated.
Don't talk such rubbish
Which part is rubbish? Are you one of those who believes that those kids are “just being who they really are?”
I have my hands over my goolies as I type!
It's true, its true. My 6ft 7 b'ball playing son thinks he's dwarf so the trannies are urging him to have his legs shortened.
I thought that's what we were here for!
I will say this. Tik tok like many social media sites is harmful to our society and bad for the mental health of teenagers and kids- (and twitter didn't do my mental health any good years ago before I quit). Kids should not be in a global popularity contest that ends with doing crazy things to get attention like the illegal trends on tik tok. Tik tok is a company / app I can't stand and its destroying the attention of kids and others surely. And tablets and apps on phones are surely changing kids brains in all these bad ways too, but that doesn't absolve tik tok for doing it. Sure resistance to this sort of stuff should be grassroots (parents learning to control their kids and people avoiding platforms or being more mindful about them) ; however I have a hard time feeling bad about tik tok being banned. The issue isn't the app gets banned. The issue is how this sort of law will be more general than just tik tok. Its the federal government having more power to do things like this in the future. That's the scary thing. I don't feel bad for tik tok employees. At the same time I would oppose any such banning bill because its a way for the government to increase its power to do similar things in the future. So yea tik tok is awful. But that doesn't mean new legislation will be good. That isn't the solution.
I have noticed that smart kids (such as my grandkids and their friends) don't do SikTok. They read books and debate reasons for their planned future roles in society - doctors, economists, engineers and lawyers. I see the problem being that these kids only have the same voting power as the SikTok wannabees. Last night I saw an American woman on a British quiz show who chose Maine for the site of Custers last stand from a choice of Maine, Montana and Missouri. See what I mean? I must have read six books about Custer, Sitting Bull, and the battle of the Greasy Grass (LBH) over a lifetime and I'm a Kiwi.
This is so important!! Owning your own content is so important. Additionally, it's also a great idea to house all of your own content on your own website so you 100% own it.
It's always been a good idea. Most people don't know (or shall I call it willful ignorance) that anything housed via google can be used by google. No matter if it's on your own website. If you store it in google it's theirs, see section 11 Content License from You: https://www.google.com/intl/en_us/policies/terms/archive/20070416/
It'll hurt brain dead zombies. Maybe they'll pick up a book. Nah ........
TikTok. Schmik Schmok. Good riddance to bad rubbish. People taking on jobs in that realm are enemies of a decent society and should look for a job sticking lead into pencils.
Thank you. Its awful. Again issues with legislation isn't not about what the bill is said to be about, but instead what is actually says. New legislation gives more power to the federal government. Its omnibus bills that have so much craziness in them. So sure banning tik tok doesn't sound so bad. What does sound bad is the government using its powers to ban apps / websites. Since this power will likely be abused. And yes economies adapt to changes. Including if we become a healthier society (and less of these social media trash and letting children use it no more of that) people will find jobs in other areas.
My opinion of TokSik, for what it's worth. Shite app aimed at kids with ADHD that switch to a new "trend" or "influencer" every 5 minutes.
IG Trying to mimic it with Reels, which I hate, and YouTube with Shorts, mostly 2 minute long videos for those with the attention span of a goldfish.
The sooner it's banned, the better, and please take Temu with it.
Don't know how this got into my inbox.....exactly the reason I'm not on other platforms.
Not interested in a platform that caters to self centered poser kids who have really nothing important to say. Yikes and their called influencers! We need less nonsense in our society.
Somebody suggested I subscribe to Substack after expressing dismay over Medium hitting all time lows on the dumbing-of-American graph.
And this is what I get from Substack.
I'm on Aol - don't the algorithmes know it means I'm old and literate??
Many comments below have covered what I would express regarding these girls.
Others have unfortunately used the blamer-victim coin.
Don't you know how dangerous it is to blame? the government, your parents, the weather? It makes you a victim.
This - you - is what is killing intelligence and integrity, not governments or anything else.
Use precious energy to be a creative, resourceful adult instead of blaming.
Lastly, are these girls sitting in front of a monitor? The lower one in particular?
Thought so.
Guess what? I've had my inoffensive comments censored on Substack too.
You know that the comments are moderated by the creator of the content right? Like they can do whatever they want with their comments. Its up to them. But it was probably not done by someone working for substack.
If the creator of the content is those two floosies who bent our brains with their entitled video nonsense, then no problem. We're in!
Did you say something that was atheistic?
good to see some efforts being done in my category as well, virtual, and sometimes not virtual. my pages at web com are diversely on servers and channels, as well as substack
Tik-Tok is engulfed in controversy at present. Until such time the issues involved have been resolved I must stand with those who know more than I. My government, before President Musk takes over.
Lol... I'm all for a President Musk over a 4th term of President Obama any day.
Yeah, you are a real genius. First, finish high school so you can learn to write simple English properly. Then you might want to seek help for your hate and obsession about Musk. Democrats are the ones who tried to buy the election...they spent over a billion dollars to get Harris elected. Even with Elon's donations, Trump spent only about a third of that, and most of his support came from small individual donors
Fact-checking required for that comment.
I checked. He's right!
Thank you.
Maybe you should do a little of your own research instead of letting the hate-stream media think for you. The media widely complains about Musk's donations to Trump, while ignoring the fact that Democrats received FAR more from big donors. This is widely known among the informed, but ignored or even censored by the Democrat media. The lemmings who continue to accept the lies of the media as truth continue to play the role of suckers. The Harris Victory Fund—which raises money for both Harris’ campaign and Democratic groups—raised $1.2 billion this election cycle, according to a FEC filing released on Oct. 24. And some sources report Democrats spent over 1.5 billion. So the complaints about Trump and Elon buying the election are CLEARLY false because it was Democrats who CLEARLY tried to do so.

I got banned from commenting here for 7 days after initially saying, "Fuck these bimbos and fuck Substack for featuring them." I have the screenshots on my Notes.
Are they aware that Substack is censoring. Asking for a friend.
On my layers - I've been able to take things to the absolute max - just as matter of principal and "Testing" - So even though it's all fake I LIKE that at least the pages I scribble on - their hosts fully support and endorse the notion of 'Freedom" of speech - but OTOH its all in a box on a layer that no-one else can see anyways - in a fake reality of a protracted "Bubble" project... Where to be honest - penetrating the bubble does not hold a great deal of fascination for me as I know that the "other" reality is just another shit show where they are more "Authentically" lying to us all.
.
As I maintain there is no civilian / human version of the CIA i.e. The Human Intelligence Agency (HIA) and corresponding "Eyes" in the sky - at least not yet...
.
(cough cough).
.
If for example the BBC or BBC like organization had their own satellites in various orbits they'd be shot down and or permanently jammed by US and other countries and agencies... especially during sketchy military conflicts.
.
And I'm not talking smug German (non-profits) as featured in seasons of HOMƎLAND that I completely gave up on...
Very very bad service
Did they pluck your words off your own page as you were writing them to reduce your complaints and sentiments to the most minimal statement possible ?
.
That was fun.
.
People carry a faulty logic.
.
IF the rule set is if (I) - believe and vehemently oppose the idea and belief system that MOST people (especially in America) harbor to themselves the completely false idea that "GOOD THINGS deserve to happen to GOOD people ".
.
Then - That does not naturally follow that GOOD things deserve to happen to BAD people.
.
i.e. the counter oppositional crass interview style and techniques where a Jeremy Paxman type would go ... "Well then surely if you DON'T - believe in blah blah blah X, Y, and Z therefore; does that not mean that you actually stand for -ve X, -ve Y and -ve Z... "
.
...^_^... . That BTW is a totally false construct and logical fallacy.
.
.
In other words - people being BAD is not correspondingly rewarded long term (in the bubble) whereas it seems in real life REAL and total cunts like Rupert Murdock are greatly rewarded.
.
The Universe favors total douchebags from hell and that is why in my quiet time "Off" we have developed a practicable hell - technologically that could maintain various participants for at least seven hundred years. It's not cheap - but various modes of funding are being explored.
.
.
So many false narratives and false belief systems that most Americans have installed at an early age.
.
Terrible basis and foundational assumptions that will have most people completely wrecked by their own "Entitledness". and Good people deserve good things ... etc.
.
Seems like they are very bad at support , I just paid 450$ but I can’t read my publication
TikTokers coming to Substack would be the death of the platform.
Substack does not have the 'Data" space or servers - TIKTOK (sp) isn't going anywhere obvi. .

Thanks, Eric, and warm wishes during this Winter Solstice.

That was quite a "lark" - when we simulated all those 'Peeps" sending in super large high res RAW pictures to Michael Moore of the "New" Harris / Waltz signs they made encouraging them to send as many variants as they could that they simply could not choose between.
.
Almost a sixteen hour shutdown.
.
and that time all the simulated Russian chatbots munching on Robert Reich's alleged "Clients" / fans.
.
Those were the days...
.
And that time the interface buttons got all switched around and we could map out how long it takes an old codger or a chatbot to learn a new interface...

Working at doing NOTHING that serves society is SO hard! LMAO
To think that these girls are just three? generations away from the American heroes who landed in Normandy and on Iwo Jima to save their asses and the world from tyranny. They would not know the first thing about that.
And they project nothing but entitled narcissism.
Sorry folks! I cannot support any Chinese app that has ties to their government and spying. Good luck finding another platform! 👍
TicTok is a Communist Propaganda machine, pretending to be something else. They promote Liberal content to destroy their enemy, the West.
"Liberal" is the new illiberal collectivist tyranny. The word's meaning has been inverted like all satanic endeavours.
Liberal used to mean:
A political philosophy based on the belief in progress towards maximum liberty of the individual and stressing the essential goodness, nobility and righteousness of the human race, freedom for the individual from arbitrary authority, and protection and promotion of political, religious and civil liberties.
Liberal, as an adjective, once denoted an attitude or approach characterized by openness to new ideas, progress, or reform of a system to bring it into line with natural law. It implied a willingness to challenge conventional norms and advocate for social, political, or economic change.
"Liberal" policies are now woke, often claiming to prioritize individual freedoms, equality, and justice but instead pushing division, censorship and social justice. There is no diversity of thought, only hive mind obedience to the woke authorities, which have no grounding in reality, consistency or standards. Without double and triple standards, they would have none.
Your thoughts?
Get a real job then
Problem solved. And the sunset clause sails off into the sunset
It is unrestricted warfare from China who BANNED IT FOR THEIR OWN PEOPLE and promote their propaganda in the west.
Here I was building F18 jet fighters for the US Air Force, and they banned wars. Damn.
Yeah, the end is near. Sadly.
Tic Toc belongs to the calmest Chinese party and they monitor everything that goes on. We in the United States have no use for them or eavesdropping.
Tik tok is being used to track journalists with invasive GPS data collection. Its basically spyware the moment its needed to be.
Any Chinese listening to that drivel will be driven mad.
👋
are you worried because this is unjust towards the chinese influence, or are you worried about your diminishing your influence?
then, just find another platform and keep hopping platforms since you don’t really care about the platform that benefits you. why complain or worry? its just gonna keep happening no matter what platform. FB was attacked by politicians, twitter was. there is no end to this
yikes. Substack is becoming Instagram. What’s the difference? Read all the writing now it’s all other people‘s version of the news
Fwd original (Agent web based PLUS plans aside from purchase now incentives by tevin ponder t ponder) Im straight to the discourse not on runaround online. My books are up and can be additional personalized with much more illustrations added that I did not have time to do.
I've stated saving all of my TT vids because they are so easy to reuse on other platforms.
Powerful
This is so bizarre... why would anyone pay to hear this banal nonsense? The two "creators" (and I'm using that word at the very limit of its meaning...) advocate for TikTok being a shop front for Amazon like that is a good thing... they assume what the world needs is more consumerism and vacuous opinions promoting more consumerism. Please don't come to Substack; we don't want you here. You aren't welcome. If your content (god, I hate that word) is so great, take it to X or Bluesky or Threads... that's full of millennials looking for people to make decisions for them and tell them how to live the most boring consumerist lives possible. Substack is about craft; it is about real opinions, and the work is the value piece, not the sell-on advertisements and cross-promotion. Substack is for writers... we are not content creators; we aren't digital marketers, and we came here to escape you. I'm sure you are both lovely people dedicated to selling as much junk as possible, but please don't pollute something that is working for real artists. Respect their space - don't for one second think we won't fight back - we will spam you, mute you, block you and write long, focused essays on why everything TikTok and everyone who profits from it is not welcome here.
2008 I was on a Skype conversation with someone in China and I asked what kind of political social economic system do you have is it a hybrid with capital S communism the conversation immediately ended hours later the person contacted me from China to a virtual private network in Canada. For help getting their information back and all of their contacts that have been wiped out so this is what happens when China has control over your expression information personal family
When the person reached me with a virtual private network, she said don’t say the H word again meaning hybrid for some reason hybrid political was a keyword that ended our conversation. I had never even occurred to me that something existed. It was just the terms that I put into language to ask a curious question.
Thank you ladies for this conversation!!! ❤️
I feel like fb and IG are just losing it's worth. It's chaos. Here feels manageable and not getting sucked into the vortex
Really good content!
gota love these smart women ❤️
Sounds like you're gonna stuff Substack with fluff and silliness to me. 😏
do kids these days know about valleygirl inflection
It's so interesting to hear what that industry is like from people that have skin in the game. I don't think the only existential threat to TikTok is the ban, it's easy to see it perishing in the same same way Vine did. Exciting that people in all areas feel like we're living through volatile times
It's not that Tik Tok is a bad app, the issue is ownership!!!
I'm also a shadowbanned and censored in many social platforms for bringing up the NeuroWeapon issue abuse which is a 24 hour remote neural monitoring surveilance of diabolically insane intelligence agents, corrupt police and crook military/Airforce deploying frequencies to cause artifical illness symtoms in me such as fatigue, brainfog, chest pain, stomach pain, artifical sense of exhausted legs etc... the worst is sleep deprivation and chemical nerve agent while at the same time them monitoring my brain and recording my reaction to their harassments. here is a public info posted in the 70's now imagine how developed and advanced this tech has become? https://patents.google.com/patent/US20130072812A1/en

@S. Arch / "REEK".
.
We HAVE devised and locking in IP for the 11th 12th and 13th level of HELL>
.
.
As I have said previously digitally implemented HELL is super expensive and there's a wait list (obviously) for suitable candidates.
.
Not just your regular douchebag Stanford graduates that decided to turn their respective so called 'hands" to creating chatbots... the malarial mosquito ridden scourge of the interwebs...
.
BUT REAL SCUM of the Earth as obviously death is far too a peaceful end for such machinations transacted whilst alive.
.
Given that "real" hell doesn't exist and therefore is NOT a sufficient deterrent.
As my still living mother used to say to my first wife - at the time my Fiancé;
.
"You don't know the meaning of suffering !!! " [grabbing her wrist and dragging her into the bathroom of the HYAT (we were staying at) for an alleged talking to as to what's expected of her and why it's not going to be an easy "Ride" for you " etc. etc. spitting venom.
She my first wife was a card carrying zombie witch doctor / dark tetrad of Borderline Personality Disorder / Covert Narcissism with sprinklings of histrionic personality disorder and straight up plain vanilla Sociopathy - (Yawn) and out and out psychopath - with ample computed / badly reverse engineered - "Cold" empathy or what I'd like to call analytic "Empathy" - Sam Vaknin and I differ on the term and exact modalities - but broad strokes - definitely in the same 'Spirit" and ball park there - cheerfully so. [My mother being a mere epic level malignant histrionic sociopathic narcissist. ].
.
.
But amusingly so - my fateful mother in spite of many difficulties will never die as the DEVIL doesn't want her... a massive miscalculation by my X-wife and estranged "Brother".
.
So in that sense in both service to the Godly and the Devil various offerings and proposals are made AND "Made".
.
.
.
One such offering inspired by @S. Arch - involves the findings and various current researches of NERO-CLINK... (not to be confused with Musk's Neuro Link or for that matter the THREE BODY PROBLEM ).
.
.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Clink
.
.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nero
.
.
Ooooh references in-line ?
.
.
Although due to IP issues the exact details are a little sketchy... but generally involve the findings where they (the neuro- scientists) wired up very young mongooses and weasels in various ways - but not using "Wires" - where they put the auditory pathways (essentially their corresponding neural "meat" ) to their respective visual pathways and vice versa their visual pathways to their auditory pathways - and way beyond normal notions of neural plasticity the researchers found that the weasels in particular functioned very much in the same ways as un-interfered with weasels would. Somewhere between the developmental stages of natural Stem - cells and basic cellular hacking of embryos. [You can look that up.]. The experiments underscore the more generic functional possibilities for creating all manner of neural interfaces.
.
Further genetic experimentation and use of various temporary tissue scaffolds (not unlike the mouse EAR experiments and splicing of glowing tissue factors from Squid to Tobacco plants - were able to yield very long super highway neural interfaces from human neurons cultivated from the cerebellum crossed with Giraffe spinal cord tissues.

...^_^... (this is NOT me ) - but the guy who made this video of Tim's work
might make a good model for the testicle smashing hammer and anvil wielding and crushing robottica. [Hunkin is definitely on the right track here ...]
.
like life sized automata... [Burly wooden guy wearing a leather apron and mono brow like frown .]. - (Like at Covent Garden)... A twenty pound rubber Mallot against a rubberized steel plate... Every fifteen minutes. [A bit of a Charlton Heston - rowing a tri-ream "Vibe". ]. SPLAT !!!!
.
Said uploaded individual brain Progressively over a period of three and half years ... but the new bio-morphic neural experiencer can never feel relief so thereby always being in the mythical state of "Blue Balled-ness".
.
Each bio experiencer being indexed every fifteen minutes or full quadrature every hour so that seven hundred years of unending pain can be experienced by the individual using HIVE MIND NERO-CLINK technology and giraffe based neuro cabling...
.
.
Obviously the Bio morphic experiencers need to be cloned in sufficient number like the spoiler alert movie MOON "Plot device".
.
.
Over a seven hundred year period Twenty three million nine hundred and twenty three thousand and two hundred and one individuals would need to be cloned - However as there are a plurality of bollocks per individual each individual is vertically and rotationally indexed to one of thirty nine positions - the ball sacks being arranged in Fibonacci packing factors like pine cones as elucidated by Turing before he took a bite of a poisoned Apple and committed suicide as the British Government made him take medications to chemically castrate him. The bite out of Apple claimed to be one of the inspirations for the APPLE logo.
.
Therefore a saving of 39 * 4 ---> roughly 154,000 multi bolloked individuals needed to be cloned a consumption of only 220 people / bio engineered experiencers per year.. <<Small golf course style clapping of white gloves >>

How to contact support
Hello substack team
The uses of words like "Egypt" for getting you banned is common on Meta. I felt like Bibi Netanyahu was dictating to FB what news of Gaza Americans could share with each other on social media. That censorship has nothing to do with "standards."
Correlation with BF - Bumb Fuck - instead of Virginia and also associations with "Sand nigger " <---- Unfortunate correlation OFTEN used by military and x-military peeps as they have soooooo much consideration for the people they allegedly liberated.
.
Even on Insta - you have speak in code to say even slightly non baby things...
.
Children !
??
It is what it is...
.
Nobody considers even the ancient Greeks revered the Egyptian cultures even though they had very little idea about what Egypt was... And even by middle Kingdom Egypt being so old that even the ancient Egyptians had absolutely no idea what the even MORE ancient Egyptians were about.
.
Meanwhile white fake supremacists allude to "White" superior European culture having zero idea that even the Arabic scribes were the ones to protect and preserve the ancient Greek texts through the dark ages until crusader Knights brought such texts (through Morocco to southern Spain) to be translated by Jewish scribes back into Greek and Latin and eventually European modern languages. - Nor how the Arabic scholars of the seven hundreds and beyond added significantly to mathematics and medicine and broader explorations of science including the numeric concept of zero.

I'm not much into video, but would be more likely to check some out here, like I did this one. I'm not concerned about content that is not my style because I can easily go to my subscriptions. I think young people have something to bring to the table & probably the smart ones will show up here. My taste in content isn't going to change, I like a certain level of depth & engagement, but also appreciate some of the passion & dedication I've seen in younger people. It's interesting to see contrasts in "influencers", there are ones that dedicate their lives to the integrity of their work in a given field & those that come in primarily as performers or entertainers. There may be something to be said for both aspects of the work. I read a lot faster than it takes to watch video, so I don't have a lot of patience for video. I will listen to worthwhile audio, though, that that has both some thought & maybe a little entertainment as well. 🙂

SADISM eclipses all other "Motives" even the excuse of 'Greed".

BTW those 1984 narratives and readings were instructive BUT were also a fake nested shell one of many that comprise the Aristotelian spheres of the "Bubble".

Most of the time these people don't even know what layer and shell they are playing on (Face Palm).

Hallo
LOL
Let's talk about Tik Tok. I had a store for a short time there for my eCommerce business. They are as bad as google. If I used a product mockup with an Asian model, they would not allow me to put it in my store. If they didn't like the products I tried to sell like some swimwear because it was a bikini that is revealing they would block it. However, the video content they allow is hypocritical in that nature. Google does the same thing with your content. Amazon would never help me to fix the issues to get my store online with them. Reality is these platforms have nothing to do with freedom and a free market. They control what is allowed. So, it is easy to say goodbye to things like that. I as a creator and designer go where I have the freedom to sell my items without the platform deciding for me what is or isn't acceptable. That is my decision in this country. What this article doesn't say is Tik Tok has to drop Byte Dance who is part of the CCP or get banned in the USA. Tik Tok isn't even allowed in China. The government requires very harsh things of their citizens.
Some of the the remarks sound particularly ignorant and unaware. Theyre not realizing the harm those apps cause to children.
Substack is fake but it's buying my second Kim Kar-Krashian sable grey Roller...

Ever tried to light one of those - you dip the end of the sandwich into Sambuco and light the end but you have to remember to suck really really hard.
.
Sometimes if you hide a few non-turtle killing biodegradable straws it makes the burning sandwich that much easier to keep alight but it is a little singy on the lung alveoli.
.
.
SUCK responsibly.
..
I SEE those IQ point you can't fool me - whatz in the China - hutch / faux leaded diamond cut glass reproduction cabinet and fake "Tudor" beams ?
.
.
mmmmmm.
Can't find the "BottoM - Up" button... the thread in reverse that the cool kids at the back of the bus "Read".
.
Tic Tock ----> Tik Tok ----> "Egypt"; The correlation is with the unfortunate turn of phrase and I really hate this outmoded term but it's one that Millennial (now substantially longer in the tooth than they used to be) Americans ... casually use this term...
.
" BUM - FUCK - EGYPT " as a generic pejorative term for countries that superficially appear "Less " " Developed" than the Americans.
.
However since numerous religious OIL WARS - and even more universal and protracted PROXY religious OIL WARS ... The term "Bum-Fuck-'Egypt" and more generally referring to Arab communities in their natural geographic context as "SAND NIGGERS" <--- Usually by service men from the Korean War era through Vietnam era, through Bush 1 - Religious oil war era 1 - and Bush 2 Religious OIL WAR era II ... + the Bush dynasty being very in bed / pally with the Saudis and NOW Jarred Kushner with a Billion dollar line of credit / "Slush " fund ... ANY and all reference to Egypt by correlation on TikTok has been muted / suppressed as usually the next words (fore and aft) are Bum fuck or sand-nigger.
.
So even if one wanted to talk about the Arab Spring - you can't.
.
Moreover in a Ray Dalio Future where by design no-one will own anything...
.
I.e. ZERO capital assets and therefore never able to borrow against ANY co-lateral to start substantive independent businesses rendering the American public as sub-epsilonic victim consumers...
.
The term "Sub - epsilonic victim consumer " amongst certain circles has come into common parlance to replace the term WHITE TRASH; or really any kind of TRAILER TRASH of any color denomination or affected persuasion.
.
And those people who tar one with the brush "EURO-TRASH" have absolutely no idea what they are talking about.
.
Ultimately that is the fate of ALL Americans to be reduced and rendered to veritable mice scampering on the devil's treadmill to afford American - "Health" ---> "___" ... " Care " ... " ____ ".
.
It was a fatal mistake under the Reagan - bush and Clinto administrations to separate the "Knowing WHY" from the "Knowing HOW" - from the ability "To DO".
.
In the united states no one really knows HOW to do anything anymore and ENTROPY does not go backwards - so reshoring 'Shitty Jobs" that not even the Chinese won't do anymore is not a "Revitalization stratagem" for America.
.
.
Having young Chinese girls with various combinatorics of digits and actual fingers assembling i-phones to make California's GDP in excess of most countries in the world to in essence BAIL OUT Kentucky (due to taxation and redistribution laws) bailing out failing and poor states - an unsustainable scheme - propped up by millions of teenage Chinese ((mainly-girl)) - remaining fingers - whilst the Nancy Pelosi (sp) "Types" speed around the ever increasingly clumped homeless in hermetically sealed space-ship like automobiles on four rubber and steel rimmed wheels - never daring to step out onto the street nor step over the homeless to "get to" -... 'Work ".
.
China buys the best automated production systems on the planet through Taiwan, Germany - Japan - Italy S. Korea etc. whereas WE in the United States attempt to make 'Artisanal" fuck-tarded low precision - low value - up- selled total crap - made crudely from wood - matt paint - shitty stain - or cardboard or barely "Textiles" --- very "Bronze age " in thread count.
.
Even the best and brightest amongst us have been reduced to boxed in victim consumers by design.
.
There are NO possibilities for anything real unless one sells out to the Military Industrial - Taylor Swift - - Dorito - automobile - pharmaceutical - FOOTBALL - "Complex".
.
We are doomed as a society and OLD men and women especially in congress SUCK literal money from the future that even todays gen Z'ers children grand children and great grand children will be paying for - for the next hundred years - MONEY our American dollars in trade we borrow from the Chinese government / PRC. Maybe they will tear up the tab if we give them Wisconsin or turn TWO blind eyes towards Taiwan. [Hong Kong was too easy.].
.
Greedy old sadistic creepers in congress bankrupting your children's future and that's WHY the Legislature in its entirety needs to be torn limb from limb as the legislature leans very heavily into the baked in hologram of exploitation latently "Codified" into the constitution and yet seems completely unable to codify any "Human" directives at all - no matter how basic including but not limited to Roe V Wade / 'Dobbs" a total car crash that will never be straightened out and other fake distractive political "Footballs".
.
Nobody takes constitutional reform serious and we are ALL fucked.
.
Like and as its inception from the so called "Founding Father" its ALL about business and exploitation equally on the World Stage to get their piece of the action and keep the slaves in line (2nd amendment.).
.
Maybe Sweden or Denmark ?
.
the US medical systems will kill more people than all the more recent wars combined.
.
Such care and respect to all our veterans and their mothers whose sons and daughters remains were not able to fill a pine box.
.
Clearly if we do right by the veterans then clearly it's just one more click to "Socialized" medicine - which is strictly forbidden and outlawed by the Military Industrial Taylor Swift Dorito Football automobile pharmaceutical - "Medical" insurance fraud - financial terrorism Jamie Dimon - "complex(es)". [Plural.].

Strictly forbidden !

Why does this sound like the "Plot line" substructure / substrate for 'Andor" ?

Hmmmmm
.
.
And a NEW HOPE ---> something about taxes but not necessarily the Boston "Tea Party"...
.
Fuck those guys !
I make post here so I don't forget - I try to be good person but ...
.
Do i really have to mention that the person in the lower square acts like she has RAD Reactive Attachment Disorder from a Russian Orphanage and acts in a peculiarly sexual way (inappropriately) and the person in the top square has all the buttons of her cardigan undone in a peculiar way and looks like she has a pimp out of shot directing her in-spite of acting quite superius and also spurious (guise) - and yet from time to time reflects the lower square person's cluelessness (bonding fakery) ? [Emotional manipulator / covert narcissist CLEARLY LYING --> "Top" and RAD victim acting out "Bottom" .]. Both being an act within an act ? BFD !
.
Also the person in the top square is lying both out of her ass and her teeth ?
.
AND does not answer or address even the most basic question or premise.
.
A fake context within a fake context with a fake edit based on a premise that pretends to be "Ironic" played ONLY to chatbots ?.
.
BUT clearly person in top square has fifty times the IQ points that she is pretending NOT to have but otoh maybe is reasonably "Normal" to not quite clueless.
.
She looks like she might be related to the supposed Heather "Lofthouse" / Parsley Bedsit.
.
Someone has a LOT of skellingtoons in their respective closet.
.
Sometimes to tell how much someone is lying of how two incongruous videos have been stitched together just watch with the sound off;.[Like the supposed presidential "Debates" .].
.
Watch one with the sound off, watch the other with the sound off , watch together with the sound off...
.
Sound on one person covered up - sound on other person covered up - watch together.
.
Absolute litany of SHITE that no one cares to notice - these people could be murdered five minutes from now and no one would have fucking clue that they were in trouble.
.
SO called society via these communities and communication platforms / Systems" are a total SHAM - morally inept to the last forgotten measly dusty crumb under the refrigerator's level of care and understanding and actual perception - which is lost forever it seems.
.
.
One of them happens to be an Astrophysicist can you guess which one ?'.
.
In spite of obvious artifacts of abuse - one has significantly more brain cells to rub together than the other - but not who one would superficially suppose / 'Think".
.
Not getting into the "Multiple intelligences" (frame work here).
.
With the sound off - one of them looks obviously very scared - has to play a part and acta as if her life is potentially in danger.
.
Someone that might appear 'Lesser" might actually have the upper hand as she can follow orders to letter and prides herself single mindedly following those orders to the letter.
.
In such a situation the one that appears to be the 'Dumb one" actually has significant superiority and seniority over the one that appears "Superficially" "Superior" in knowledge and supposed intellect.
.
A quadruple "Bind" brought about by external "Agencies".
.
In that respect if things proceed - very much a modern version of a Julia and Winston dynamic.
.
In the sense that people chose to rewrite Orwell's work (although I can't be too judgy as I haven't read the feminist re-write of 1984 ) - It is easy to forget that Eric Blair chose the pseudonym "George Orwell" as a further narrative framing "Character" of the work. Orwell's sardonic wit and sarcasm is unmistakable - especially with the Book within a book within a book narratives of Emanual Goldstein... absolutely hilarious and Eric Blair's experiences and observations coming through the narrations of Orwell and Winston Smith. Goldstein's expositions exemplifying the one side's ism coherent set of arguments - then the key - world salad transitions to another oppositely sided coherent narrative and back again via the transitional schemes of word-saladsism - a perfect fit for today's NEWs MEDIA, so called "Cycles " of never ending non-provenanced garbage.
.
In similar fashion to the above video on "Sub-stack" the CIA and other homeland security and propaganda agencies took hold of Eric Blair's work and used it as tool in exactly the ironic way that Orwell was trying to warn us all about.
.
The actual BOOK of 1984 is absolutely hilarious - but people don't see the wit in various televisual and cinematic presentations as the work was used as a tool to scare people about the evils of Stalinist Soviet (styled) Communism - "THE ENEMY"... (not just 'The Enemy Within" - ).
.
So all the sardonic and arch @S. Arch wit was scrubbed out for the need of absolute banality to underscore and create absolute scaremongering of communist totalitarian states - whereas Eric Blair maintains that 1984 is really a parody of totalitarian fascists states. [Although in my opinion Emmanual Goldstein's / Blairs / Orwell's narratives of Oceania are almost an eidetic fit for the current 'American" way of doing things and its mainly English speaking (white) allies. ].
.
Side note Stalin Killed possibly upward of 30 million of "His" own people - different from Trumpism / Neo-fascism in the sense that Stalin and to a lesser extent Crutchev killed tens of millions of what essentially boil down to Russian WHITE TRASH ! - ~ Whereas in America WHITE TRASH allegedly have a privileged position and won't face any such future work camps and spectral gas chambers in the future.
.
.
I digress - Seems maybe those that chose to flip the genders of the feminist version of 1984 - maybe didn't understand that Winston is in essence a victim and a WEAK person that the Sadistic Machine of "The State" NEEDS to consume by design(a -priori) to further its own existence. Pre-destined set-up for Winston to be consumed and not even processed into worm food - whereas Julia although operating for different agencies has the upper hand and casual abandon of betrayal and psychopathy - cheerfully so and doesn't take it so seriously or literally - and KNOWS that its all bullshit anyway - and therefore within that paradigm IS the consummate survivor.
.
Without a whole string of weak Winston's (ironic name there) there can NOT be the survival of Julia "Types"... (Total sell outs and tools of the various agencies that use her. ).
.
Its a curious and ironic - pre destined Diad and framed by the nearly always present character of Orwell. So to flip that into a feminist narrative would require one to flip Orwell himself and by extension Eric Blair.
.
[I'm nor sure if that's what they did - as in my view making Winston Smith "The Woman" has the opposite effect to render (modern) women as weak and destroyed by their own pre-made excessively conscientious modalities. ].
.
?
.
.
People may also forget that the Orwell characterization is just that, and maybe had Eric Blair lived longer - there would have (been) many sardonic further accounts of different worlds - from out under the Orwell hat or maybe other pseudonyms would have appeared from the mind of Eric Blair to create different modes and sensibilities very different from the Orwellian cast and "type".
.
.
Not everything is as it appears and seems people are not seeing the larger frames of reference of fakery as well. Pre-engineered and pre-set up " Long ago ".
.
Obviously Substack ALSO being a fake paradigm created almost exclusively for the 'Bubble" and other such "Experiments".
.
Imagine if Eric Blair had not died as early as he had - and all the sorts of capers such an individual through time could have made.
.
[Today migraine - and no caffeine and concerta a memory over a distant horizon now .].
.
Sometimes "We" mean what we say - but sadly those in authority really came up short.
.
Easily bought and "Boxed".
Also funny how the lower squared person looks down on screen to the upper squared person (we see) as per her personal screen and vice versa.
.
Curious psychological trick.
.
totally absurd.
Same plague of chatbots in evidence.
.
Most of the pages I inhabit claim to have denizens that are between the ages of 79 and 82 years of age with occasional nonagenarian.
.
Of course they out-age me by a not insubstantial number of decades.
.
BUT for example Robert Reich Substack ALL chatbots 400 to 1000 at any time other than myself.
.
Michael Moore similarly - a special layer - that no one can see anyway.
.
ALL part of an absurdist "Media Experiment" with very dark implications that add up to very substantial abuse.
.
OR basically in KGB terms back in the day would be considered psychotronic abuse - in some cases causing Tourette's like tics and behaviors.
.
They will still retain most of the employees. It is better off gone.
As a new Substack user this is super refreshing to hear!
“Re-pute- a-bull” news.
That’s what they said. They need to get re-pute-a-bull news.
Man that hurts my head.
Tik Tok will not be banned. It will be sold to an American company and go on as if nothing has happened.
Unless you do not harm the sacredness of substack, turtle will not be welcoming
Dear Violet, I cannot see how you mentioning that you were going to Egypt for your honeymoon, then saying the word, "Egypt" GOT YOU BANNED ON TIK-TOK. Are you sure you don't have more context to tell us why exactly you got banned. I think you also don’t have anymore information, nor do you have anymore light to shed on your dark ban from T.T.
The Problem with tick-tock censorship if you’re left-leaning you have no problem with tick-tock him no matter how far you go. If you’re neutral you have very little difficulty, and if you’re conservative you won’t get posted they will stone wall you. This is because there on the Chinese government and the Chinese sensor everything. Otherwise is a decent platform!
Isn't Shawn Baker on tik tok technically? No way he fits in their control freak censorship push. I only know cause he said he was.
Yes, Violet, won’t anyone think about poor Amazon?! https://open.substack.com/pub/publicenlightenment/p/bari-weiss-brought-to-you-by-billionaires?utm_source=app-post-stats-page&r=2xd80&utm_medium=ios
This is what tik tok brain looks like.
Someone please open another platform ! I came here to get away from these Entitled Tick-tock wannabes 😡😡😡
Oh, Substack’s gonna make it easier for these people to make five-minute videos. It’s seeming more and more like Substack is hell bent on becoming Tik Tok. (Isn’t Tik Tok in danger of going away? Yeah, so these ‘creators’ have to move somewhere) Pretty smart, Substack.
Anyway, maybe Substack could divide their platform in two. Writers on one side, video creators on the other, never the twain to meet.
As a writer, I know that writers don’t need pictures. You can have a face like a sheep’s nether parts and still write great prose or poems. Writers don’t need videos of themselves stretching and preening. They don’t need ‘pics.’ They don’t need photos of themselves. Put all that on the other side of the divide.
Go ahead, Substack, flood the platform with this, but keep it on the Video side. It’s all about attractiveness, prettiness. I might consider watching it if they had less clothing on
Substack I have never had an issue with. But I wasn't here before videos arrived (they were in beta or something when I did). I don't think this is like youtube shorts (where want a piece of the tik tok pie). Substack is different always will be. But it also supports video and I see that as a positive.
100% Brilliant comment 👌👌
The only SS downside is twofold First, the functionality with commenting on some platforms with a lot of views/comments. It may be due to use of VPN connections, but I have found that on mobile phones, SS can in these cases be nearly impossible to load properly. Secondly, and this is more of a big deal for me, is that like so many online apps they have outsourced help to Zendesk. Zendesk knows practically zero about user/site functionality issues because they are not site programmers who can actually help. We need to put our foot down on outsourcing and especially when there is no other possible way to contact site operators directly. In my case, when I had issues with my site Zendesk actually cancelled my account when I only suggested I might have to if some login problems not fixed. Worse, they cancelled my subscriptions to some great people like Naomi Wolf and returned funds! Now thats downright crazy but something that can happen when you give 3rd parties the keys to the car and might crash the business.
All that said, SS has the best authors anywhere - i.e. if you care to actually learn about the world around you. That's my take anyway, fwiw.
Maybe Amazon should buy TikTok. I don't know if the decision still being appealed but the alternative to shutting it down was for US company to buy it.
The TIkTok ban is 100% cowardice on the part of its competitors, getting big daddy government to come to their aid. I hope TikTok keeps going and if Americans want to risk going to jail for using it, via VPN maybe, the rest of the world will decry our totalitarian leaders (“leaders”).
Addicts can get help easily from many different agencies you know.
Who uses that Chyna tictac crap any way. It's so much better here than YT (screwtube and Rumble? Just saying
In and of itself, I have no problem with TikTok. My problem is the Chinese ownership and its ability to store anything and everything about me, my business or anything that they want to save and store. China is an avowed adversary of the U.S. and every other noncommunist country on the planet. Dependent on whom would buy it, I would have less concern, but still would want to know everything about the philosophy and policies of ownership and management.
"I subscribe to the New York Times for recipes." Funny line.
I commented long & thoughtfully, in keeping with why I come here...but you broke my sincere face, making me laugh...which is also why I come here! Sharp wit. I subscribe to Playgirl for the articles.
This will not end well … substack wiil be inundated by TikTok refugees.
Had to voice another thought about this. How will Substack reply to such an influx of brainwashed perspectives? Will they also themselves for the Narritive?
Somebody has to explain the difference between the Korean Strikeout dance and the Japanese Strikeout dance, and it's not going to happen on Tik Tok, because the women doing the dance don't speak English. Part of the Substack model is to fulfill this type of role.
Could not understand 2 ladies due to their poor audio equipment.
Giving more business to Amazon is not a selling point for me.
I have seen a number of TikTok videos & have enjoyed them. They have a unique feel to them, although it's not that their type of format couldn't be duplicated elsewhere. I think both the pros & cons should be weighed carefully, not that I expect Congress or the next administration to do that.
I wonder what would happen to all these people of this age group if the word "like" was banned. What is it with using "like" all the time? It's pathetic and shows how childish you are. What level of gammer is taught in schools these days because it looks and sounds as if it is close to either nil or extremely basic level.
I work directly with reps from Tiktok and I feel really awful for them right now with things being so uncertain, they're a lot of really bright and creative people and working in tech, especially for social platforms, right now feels so fraught with concern about job security and/or getting hired. To me this whole crusade against Tiktok is beyond stupid when there are much more real issues US is facing.
TikTok does not have to "go away". The Chinese government can sell the site and no one has to lose their job. The national security issue could be serious and must be the primary consideration. TikTok has know for a year what was coming.
If you Substack) are going to edit for length and clarity you can surely drop the stupid, ditzy, 'LIKE' word sprinkled liberally throughout the otherwise purile dialog. Do those airheads make money talking that drivel?
Coco Mocoe and Violet Witchel are Lieutenants for the Illuminati I'm pretty sure. They're sent to throw us Substack Netizens off.
The Banksters and the Deep State are creating distractions. Pretty soon they'll have Rachel Blevins and Natalie Brunell look alike characters, but showing cleavages and cameltoes, explaining the difference between Korean and Japanese Strikeout dances and Bitcoin Derivatives Trading ETFs and Russia's strategy in Venezuela and Colombia.
very informative thank you
Yeah, “like”…who cares?
Nice to have this beautiful video.
For the one doing live painting - Twitch would work well, and supports monetizing.
Trump isn't going to ban TikTok.
Actually the world would be better off if the internet was shut down and people had lived again
Yes, let's pretend substack is such a safe haven when it platforms and monetizes Nazis, racists and transphobes
LOL
Welcome ladies to SS. Would love to see your content and support you in getting started. SS is for the clear sighted critical thinkers. Best wishes. Enjoy.
我爱你
Great revelation 👍
It's not up to Trump. Currently it's up to the Biden administrative, whoever that is.
However TikTok violated many US laws including spying on the US through this app.
The potential ban simply states that if China is willing to split the app so the US can control the portion being used by our people then it won't be banned.
There are three things that I see wrong with TikTok ,1 I basically go on to read some of the comments of the world, and while I’m on there, I support the creator by tapping on the screen, reading the comments. I just can’t believe how uninformed educated and unsensitized 2 buying off the TikTok you were buying cheap maid clothes but here in America we’ve been doing that anyway possibly even chemically treated and eliminate the mom and pop stores and your department stores so you don’t even have to leave your apartment.3 your allowing Censoring of speech to get your dollars. You are selling your right to freedom of speech to a communist platform for what this is a form of control and everyone it seems to be falling for it why Trump would even consider allowing this is beyond my realm thought. In my eyes it’s keeping the peons happy.
Well said. These media channels have to be more responsible to their subscribers and this seems the way to go. Yea Substack!
TikTok's fate is now under SCOTUS control. I believe they will try to set it up for a new right wing billionaire owner, pretending that they are only saving it from China's evil clutches.
I suspect the goal for the Supremes is to make sure another platform where liberal voices can speak is taken over by right wing media. They understand the assignment.
Pretty much every social media platform starts off left of center (some more partisan than others). It's a miracle to find a legitimate conservative platform or one that doesn't censor the usual right-wing views. Twitter/X isn't really conservative. It just censors significantly less than other platforms. TikTok censors a lot, but it has many loopholes when it comes to the sexualization of children and adolescents, as do other platforms.
While I'm disgusted by cornographic content and gory violence, I do favor low censorship. My hope would be to see more modest and wholesome content compared to the trash available, but I'm probably too idealistic.
