The video sharing app faces being banned in the US unless it severs ties with its China's ByteDance.

      How is protesting at a college going to stop it?

        The colleges have relationships with the companies that make the bombs and have direct investments in Israel.

          Why not also protest at, I don’t know, the White House or Congress? The people who make policy work there, a college faculty can’t do shit to affect Israeli strategic policy.

                TikTok is spreading this shit. These protests do nothing and only increase civil unrest.

                This you?
