Tik Tok is DONE | Vlogmas Day 15

Tik Tok is DONE | Vlogmas Day 15

Comments

Yes!

Dani

im catching up on the last week’s videos today so watching the braid saga in reverse has been hilarious

Isis Shackelford

No filters is WHY i love tik tok 😂😂😂😂

Amber Loveshe

Question: what makes TikTok any different than any other social media platform? I can agree that a lot of misinformation is spread on the app, but social media is what you make of it. Your algorithm is based on what YOU want to see. I just don’t get the comments acting like TikTok is some mark of the beast while they sit on platforms like YouTube and X, the OGs of modern day conspiracy and red pill content

Jade White

you inspired me to delete twitter and i moved on to deleting instagram too and now im just like living my life but still crave the rush😭 but im sure its for the best on the long run so staying strong 💪

mau

I did my first book’s cover reveal on Tik Tok, so I get the appeal for indie authors. But other than that, I’m barely on it 😕

Dani

Sameeee!! I feel the same way. And we have the same name! 🤩

Dani

I know it's probably impossible, but I reeeally hope a new tiktok app won't come (or it just flops) cause we as a collective need to CHILLL bruh. We all still gonna be online, but I need the amount of time online to drop by some type of margin at least.

Lilac S.

Just deleted my twitter 🤫

Ray

Like to an extent that is true but whenever i see those comments its the most false news I've seen all yr

Bekah

Literally what i was thinking!!! People talking about tiktok like mass misinformation when YouTube fb and twitter have the exact same issue... It is purely cause it's a Chinese company

Bekah

This made me giggle way too hard 😅😅

Bekah

Omg yes

Issa Smith

I didn’t actually think tik tok would be banned but here we are

Issa Smith

I feel bad for indie authors because tiktok def helped them.

Serena

Kenya do you prefer Effie or Deena's One Night Only 😭😭😭

Danielle A

tiktok managed to speedrun going from a shiny new app to waste time on into a hotbed for misinformation and dangerous behaviors in roughly four years, which is NUTS!!! it makes me wonder what social media app could possibly become the next new thing after this (idc fr though bc I ain't got another app in me, chile)

rudi!!!

TikTok is really Tumblr 2.0 and worst. 😭

Kris

After the election I for real had l to get off that app cuz I was not about to listen to all that dumb ass discord 😫

B Ann

Interesting. I hope it goes away

FRIDAY

I feel the music industry will be better for it

Kasey Kucera

kenya can you talk about travis hunter and his fiancé. i feel like im losing my mind seeing people harass that girl in the name of “looking out” for travis. it’s truly baffling

Amaya A

On a side note. I deleted Twitter when it became X. And I am getting rid of tiktok because of how my blue bubble gave me a complete false sense of security during the election. I still love YT, Patreon and Spotify.

germaninatlanta

Not she Knowles 😭😭😭🤣💀

germaninatlanta

I think the discussion needs to be why they are banning it in the US, a country with hilarious privacy laws, while it's still allowed in the EU under GDPR. All of social media is trash, but the US stating privacy concerns is absolutely hilarious.

germaninatlanta

Correct as usual baby!! And I’m sure a very similar US app will take over and the brainrot will continue :/ Twitter is literally such a threat too and of course no one is going to get rid of Elon

Mai

There's only one person on tik tok I'd miss. The Circus lady, talks about racial stuff, knows her shit🤔

Rainy Feathers

If Tiktok gets banned in the US, maybe it could be a similar process of what happened when Twitter got banned here in Brazil. The app was still on everyone's phone, but nothing loaded on it. It was like the servers got shut down. There were rumors that some people could still access it through a few internet companies or using a VPN, but you could be charged for a very high fee if you dit it and maybe even face other legal repercussions.

Guilherme Celeste

Can you talk more about booktok and its future connection to the publishing industry, im so fascinated to hear someones pov on it,that has booktube but not booktok

Christina Oghagbon

I wanna savour vlogmas so bad but it’s just flying by

Evette

Lol when I saw “TikTok taught me so much that school didn’t” I was like we are lost as a nation

Evette

The casualness to gambling I’ve notice a lot

Evette

Lol it just reminds me of the Illuminati era all over again 🤣

Evette

this girl i work with told me she didn’t like Beyonce because of some tiktok conspiracy theory about Beyonce being behind the murder of Michael Jackson Prince and more. She went on and on saying the j.cole song “she’s knows” is really about Beyonce (she-knowles). She presented it as fact and i looked at her like she was crazy. I could tell she was embarrassed by my reaction but i still bring it up at work in front of her till this day whenever i need a good laugh. Like yall need to know how crazy these tiktok conspiracies be having yall look

Jayden Brown

I hate TikTok. So much misinformation and discussion from people with confirmation bias and a lack of critical thinking skills. Reading TikTok comment sections makes me feel like Albert Einstein. There’s a dark energy to that app. It reminds me of Black Mirror.

Alexis

I started to notice the uptick when drake would post his gambling wins

TaNiyia

I like tik tok but I’m kinda glad it’s getting banned. I spend wayy too much time scrolling and I’m trying to free myself from social media. Plus R Kelly songs are always going viral on there 🤮

Danielle

I'm so happy you acknowledged the inherent sinophobia and corruption because so many people are missing that part. Regardless of how anyone feels about tiktok specifically, those are huge issues and the ban will have much larger implications than just not being able to scroll the FYP.

Adanya

You're 100% right. I remember my friend NEVER watched YouTube and did not have any favorite YouTubers. Imagine my surprise on how she cares about everything now.

Dani

heavy on the concert tickets being too expensive now because of tiktok. concert etiquette has also disappeared since everyone just wants their viral moment to post

cc

Kenya can you talk more about your laser hair removal journey??? I’m kinda of scared to do it because I’ve seen a lot of talk about laser not being dark skinned friendly.

Aliyah

I’m sad for the creators whose incomes will be affected but if I said I wasn’t a little giddy that millions of easily duped and impressionable people will have less access to mass short-form propaganda and misinformation, I would be lying.

Keith Primas

It sucks for the discoverability of new creators but it's good for the collective cause the brainrot is waayyy too high right now. Especially the youth.

Vic

Wait! The way this conversation directly parallels Drake suing his own record label about payola use like he never did it. Not to be your too woke friend on a Sunday night.

Keith Primas

Have you noticed the gambling thing 😭 someone went through a break up and casually discuss how they blew money on sports betting and i was like ???? And the comments didn’t even acknowledge it. But gambling is quietly REALLY BAD

Mycah

Thank GOD! Everybodys delusional talking about how educational it is, no more than every other damn platform. Youtube gone be the last man standing for me. I’m sick of social media

India Barrow

Babeyy!! Vlogmas is flying BY!!! 😂

Gabriel Benton

I really hope they ban tiktok tbh. It’s destroying the collective consciousness especially gen z. I already downloaded my fave videos. We need a cultural reset.
