Just a reminder that just SURVIVING is an act of rebellion and utmost courage in the face of this dictatorship. Survive and, that in itself, is what they don’t want you to do. Survive. I know you can.

Though I know many on here aren’t on Tiktok and are pretty against it (for very valid reasons), I do want to shoutout everyone who does use Tiktok and the ban is really upsetting. I know I have been on the same account since January 2016. I’ve grown up on it and I also use it recreationally even now, as I assume many of us do. It’s personalized entertainment that makes us feel seen, validated, and even makes us laugh. It’s very rational to be upset that it was unjustly taken away from you. You are allowed to be upset and morn.

And to those who aren’t on Tiktok and dislike it, I ask that you don’t make this an “I told you so” moment or minimize the severity of the ban. Because even though the ban doesn’t affect you, if you are American, the ban should terrify you. And for non-Americans, I just ask that you extend some sympathy.

This is an aggravating situation for everyone. It will be harder for some than others to get through such a massive change. Because whether or not you like it, 175 million people who regularly spent lots of time on an app now have zero access to it. And especially for those who are struggling and don’t have real life communities, that can be really tough.

I just ask for people to recognize the severity of the ban and how this can be really hard for some people.

I cradled tiktok in my arms as it died. I watched my likes disappear, my comments, my reposts, my friends. The rest of the world just disintegrated under my finger tips and the only thing I can do is mourn. There's not even a wake, or a funeral to attend. There's only disconnection 💔💔
