    Mmm. Yes. Very. That’s exactly how it worked. You can trust the Trump admin, they for sure didn’t misrepresent how the deal worked when they explained it.

        It’d depressingly telling that you’re trying to use “americans” to dismiss this when you’re just straight up swallowing the US propaganda about the tiktok sale… and presenting that as somehow the pro-china position. Perplexing.

          Yes the entire world and press swallowed " the US propaganda about the tiktok sale".
          But do explain, americans and their ideas are always good for a laugh.

              I can find articles from the entire world believing the wild conspiracy theory that it was sold to the banana republic.
              Can you at least try to make clear what your delusion is about that or if you even deny that?
              IDK your level of insanity?

                “I’m gonna insult you for a while, misrepresent your position then act like I’m going to be reasonable by asking for you to elaborate on your opinion”. Classic.

                That article beautifully highlights the problem - you really have just swallowed the propaganda line that it’s a US app now, without doing any research into what the handover actually entailed.

                  The ‘article’ is nothing more than China bad cope and fearmongering from the typical american think tanks.
                  It says literally nothing about the sale. The sale to Oracle your regime’s scummy CIA company BTW.
                  As they want to keep their control over the press and any social media.
                  It’s them who want to influence people, this garbage article is a perfect example.
                  You offer zero facts for what is supposedly wrong about the sale only parrot your regime’s scaremongering.
