🇺🇸 **1 in 5 Americans now regularly get news on TikTok, up sharply from 2020**
"_More than half of TikTok users (55%) now say they regularly get news on the platform, up from 22% in 2020. TikTok is now on par with several other social media sites – including X (formerly Twitter), Facebook and Truth Social – in the share of its adult users who regularly get news there._"

@bibliolater No wonder we are where we are. The algorithm is fascist. No joke. Leaves them ignorant the way Chinese, Russians, Hungarians, Turkish etc are, ignorant and controllable.
@Beachbum #Algorithms are programmed by humans and reflect the programmer's interests and biases.
@bibliolater Wait until all those TikTok businesses (it’s the excuse many users use for being on there, BS) go under because of the tariffs and the shutdown. Maybe then they’ll realise TikTok is not the godsend they thought it was.
