Right.
Yes.
And I have like 9,000 like disparate thoughts on it that like don't all... So number one, I think a lot of the narrative about TikTok is like it's just stupid dances. And I feel like we are glossing over a lot of the value that TikTok provides. Like I feel like... people were very, oh, I don't use TikTok. I'm not, I'm not a child. I'm not dancing on the internet.
There's a lot of people who like run businesses on TikTok. There's a lot of like interesting commentary on TikTok. Musicians that you would never have heard of that you know now because of TikTok. Like it's, it, It is what it is. It's a it's a social media app. It is a center for brain rot.
But it is also like it's it has it's let's not paint it with a broad brush and say that it's just like garbage. Like it's they all are then in that case.
I think the comment sections in my experience tend kinder. I think when they are mean, they can be very mean. But I do think my first reaction when I was first started scrolling through TikTok was that like, whoa, the comments are like hyping this person up instead of bullying them.
I will also say it's a place where like, I know that the government's issue with it mainly, as you said, Mina, wasn't the propaganda aspect of it, but... It is a place where you can hop on and share your opinion. And it's possible your opinion is being influenced by these opinions that are being put out there by people that have nefarious means.
You can see how it could be used, as any media could be used, to spread propaganda effectively.
Yeah, I think kids were born into a world where that's everything. They just watched an inauguration where the owners of all of the social media were with the president.
Right, and you're like, okay, so the government's always got my data. Kids care so little that when they got rid of TikTok for a few hours, they downloaded an app officially owned by the government of China. Yes. to replace it.
If I'm honest, if I'm completely honest, I think what I would miss the most is hearing other people's drama, drama that does not affect me, but that someone else is really fired up about. I would miss that. I would miss getting face to face. Like I've watched a lot of TikToks where I feel like I'm FaceTiming with somebody who I don't know. And they're telling me a juicy story.
And yeah, sometimes you're like, I don't really care what this is. And you scroll away. But there's like something to like an An average American TV. It just feels like... And obviously everybody's putting on some... They're presenting some sort of a something, so I'm not saying everyone's being authentically themselves. Putting on that eyelash filter. Yeah. But it was like...
Where you hear from just people. Anybody can upload. Anybody can upload and it can get enough traction and can go. Like I could just bump into the experiences of regular people scrolling through my phone.
No, I think there probably was machinations to it that I don't understand. But if you put up a banger of a video, it's going to get out to more people and more people will see it no matter who you are. So you could be a big account. But like my TikTok algorithm didn't have any of the like TikTok influencers that I know of through like people talking about TikTok.
But it had, like, just, like, Lola Young. I don't know if anybody knows her. She's a musician that I love from England. I never would have heard her music if I hadn't had TikTok. I found Dochi on TikTok forever ago. Like, that's just, like, that's where I, like, find stuff. The music discovery.
Mandy Reid.
Yes. Yes. Yes. She is, she makes those seven layer bars. That have the chocolate chips and the coconut. Yeah, yeah. That's what she brings to the bake sale. And she always makes more than enough. Like it's a good amount of bars.
Right. A five layer dip.
I'm getting that we didn't slide the slider over far enough. I'm seeing too much C.J. Stroud in this woman.
The eyes are a little different. I think they probably gave her some lashes or something and maybe made them a little bit more up a little like we do with our makeup, whatever that's called. But this is still just C.J. Stroud to me.
