Decade ago some banana say Liaoning will just a floating restaurant because Chyna can't even make arresting cables and need to buy second hand cable from black market. So when those cable break the mighty US will just cut off then starve PLAN aircraft carrier ambition. Lol
Bananas are the worst. Should put them all into a giant blender, pour them into pie crust, and make some banana cream pie.

Can you tell me who TikTok's new owner and CEO are?

If not, then to paraphrase Stephen from Django Unchained, "then both sides agreed on diddly."
We also established that physical possession, in this case the algorithm and data centers, are infinitely more valuable than some worthless piece of paper showing legal ownership. Which begs the question: why is ByteDance going along with the content regulations?

Beats me, but at least we've established through all the hand wringing and talks of sales, the most important components of TikTok are still in China's possession and Bytedance is still the one making the decisions. Anyhow, as long as anti-China propaganda isn't promoted on the platform, why should we care?

Plus, as I said in a previous post, even if TikTok fully came under US ownership, Trump vowed to do to it what Elon Musk did to X. If he wants to promote Nazi propaganda and worsen America's partisan divides, I wouldn't be surprised if China would be all too happy to play along.

Well if this isn't another Nexperia level x3 retarded move by the Euros. Good luck falling further behind in AI, biotech and advanced manufacturing either.

It isn’t really Nexperia. China provides funding for themselves in joint collaborations projects. The 93.5 billion euro funding comes from the EU and their associated states which China isn’t. So the only funding China gave is to support the Chinese side of the joint collaboration project.

But is TikTok being sold, have you checked?
It's already confirmed China will always control the algorithm, it's export controlled will never be up for discussion.
US only buys the right to censor content for US users and only US users.
And even that hasn't happened yet lol

Only part of TikTok being sold is US operations. Would be easier if people said “TikTok US” instead of calling it TikTok. Because the way some people are talking appears as if the entirety of TikTok was sold when it wasn’t. FT wouldn’t be calling it “TikTok US” and “joint venture” if the entirely of TikTok was being sold. There wouldn’t be an need for an joint venture in that case.

Such is the actions of a nation that knows they have lost but would do anything in its power to pretend that it is not happening. Some people like to think the USA is playing 5D chess but if the nation crumples under its own hypocrisies and hubris, we’ll all these games will ultimately amount to nothing

My entire FYP is filled with the bridge collapse video. Which means the CCP is imploding. America stays top superpower

They cannot figure it out.

Containment of China = Subjugation of Europe.

In fact, with all these recent actions, the latter is more true than the former, probably by a couple of magnitudes.

That is the curious history of the West, at least curious to us. When a Western power rises to the top, they will fall like all empires, and never come back.

No one in Europe is going to be a world, not even close. They just keep sliding further down.
