    Imagine using being unfathomably addicted to trusting an app parented and developed in a country where you can’t criticize your leaders.

      Imagine trusting an app owned by billionaires that just paid off the government to remove their competition.

      You’re an idiot if you trust any social media platform at this point.

          Brother, that is still the laws on the books. Age does not matter. Do you really not understand that? Do you think laws expire? Did you choose to not understand? What’s your deal? You live inside your own nightmare.

          Got no more retort? Did you change your mind or just decide to stop thinking about it to save your precious idea of your country.

            Still responding 3 days later, my comments must have cut deep lol. I replied to PyroNeurosis cause I actually cared for their reply, and then moved on to other discussions on this platform more meaningful than your retorts.

              People do sure like to avoid information that proves them wrong. I like making sure that they don’t forget.

      Thankfully, that doesn’t apply to us using the app because the Chinese government doesn’t govern us.

      Meanwhile, the US government absolutely influences the flow of information on US hosted social media sites, so uh, let’s be upset at all of them regardless of location!
