Brad Polumbo, Foundation of Economic Freedom Policy Corespondent, accused TikTok of removing a proRittenhouse clip. This is the latest instance of Big Tech censorship. TikTok’s reasons? It was not surprising that they were incredibly vague.
Video posted by Polumbo discussed the left’s hypocrisy in slamming the jury’s not guilty verdict.
Rittenhouse was released last week.
Polumbo said that TikTok, removed the video for “harassment” and “bullying,” but that no further explanation was provided.
“.@tiktok_us took down this video of me defending Kyle Rittenhouse, citing “harassment and bullying. WTF?” Polumbo tweetedTogether with the relevant video. “I will be appealing.”
Polumbo appealedHe requested the removal but TikTok said he denied the appeal. TikTok also did not provide any explanation about who was hurt by the video.
“AND MY APPEAL HAS BEEN DENIED… Lmao,” Polumbo tweetedAfter the platform rejected his appeal. “@tiktok_us @TikTokSupport this is a joke and an embarrassment for y’all.”
Some on Twitter pointed out the inconsistencies in TikTok’s policies.
“TikTok has inconsistent policies,” one user tweeted. “They take down mildly provocative content often, but recommend actual Nazi videos in my feed.”
“TikTok is controlled by the CCP [Chinese Communist Party] good luck with your appeal,” another user added.
Both the Left and Right have criticized TikTok. Both members of political parties worry that TikTok may obtain the personal data of US users on the orders of the CCP.
Ashton Kutcher has warned parents recently about the dangers associated with the application. “If I’m China and I want to create a problem in that area of the world, specifically a Naval problem in the South China Sea, I would probably want to utilize TikTok in order to influence the minds of Americans,” he said at the time.
