Submission statement: I know politics is a flame fest, but I think the impact of TikTok pertains to tech and it's relationship with democracy.
Not only of TikTok itself, but also filter bubbles. Most people didn't even know about this guy until election night. Absolutely insane.
In a matter of months he fooled more than 2 millions of my countrymen to vote for him. Absolutely insane. Nobody was expecting this. I am absolutely _terrified_ of the future.
My countrymen as well :). I am appalled of what's happening.
:') I grieve, and, honestly, thanks.
