    There’s soooo much misinformation on TikTok. Is the platform actually useful for anything?

      Don’t know but you could say the same thing about face book or most of the internet. What scares me is how much this misinformation is weaponized successfully. It’s especially scary in cases like Tiktok where it’s used heavily by tweens.

    Someone please make it stop.

    TikTok and its ilk should come with those warnings like you get with cigarettes and alcohol. “May cause lowering of IQ and inhibit the development of critical thinking skills.”
