I’m fine with agreeing that there is no way to be sure if this is a recent change. But I’m not going to agree that it was probably in place since 2020, as there is no evidence for that either. I can’t afford them the benefit of the doubt when they’ve openly praised Trump already. I actually find it quite unlikely that TikTok as a platform would give a shit about combating misinformation about America in America.

It’s all just guesses at this point.

Question is, how long has this been the case? If <rigged election> only got banned after they were unbanned in America and Trump became president, it is functionally the same thing.

Considering they’re on yiffit, that may well be a reasonable concern.

It’s weird too, why would someone only cut off half the credits? People would be far less likely to notice if they were completely gone. It’s like whoever did that is announcing to the world, “look at me, I’m an asshole!”
