The Supreme Court said back in the day the fugitive slave act was good law.
Right now it’s up to Congress to stop this and yeah TikTok has been very influential with the American diaspora. I really hope they don’t shut down because I find out more about world events in America events they don’t speak about on the local news through this app. Fuck you meta I’m never fucking with you.

Mr. Pool
AmeriKKKans IZ the dumbest population on the planet.
Is there a reason why nobody in this country has created a U.S. version of Tik Tok?….
Invest in facebook, Snapchat if it’s banned…
Guess RedNote,Fanbase and Lemon8 about to get a bunch of new users..
The entire book is one line. " Be an attractive female and wear gym tights that show your camel toe"
Looks like that 90 day extension won't help.. people already moved to RedNote and Lemon8 (those probably won't be around for long either..)
Because Tik Tok already exists and, for the time being, still in the US.
Shit that works for IG too and pretty much all of social media.
All these Black folks who went and learned Code going back to the Obama Administration and not one cat could come up with a alternative?
Are we as Black peoples dependent on Communist China and White folks for our Social Media needs?
If that is the case….we as a people will continue to be losers and will always be at the bottom.
One of the finest posts on this forum.
Folks should read Invisible Man instead of the Bible on how to confront evil.
Seriously though, look how long it took tech wizards to come up with a viable alternative to Xitter.
I'm not an expert but it's probably not so easy to recreate whatever magic another site has. Especially since the tech culture is about constant novelty and building something different rather duplicating what's already out there.
The origin of Facebook was nerdy ass Mark Zuckerberg creating it to rank females on who was hot/fuckable attending Harvard.
It morphed over time as a replacement for MySpace which was the premiere social media site back in the early 2000s.
If just 5 Black Men who are proficient in Code banded together to create a social media platform for Black folks.
And if Black folks supported it by using it.
It could be the dominant social media platform in the world because non-Blacks would sign up just to see what Black folks are doing. And it’s format would be copied.
How many things have Black folks created over the past 100 years that was copied by others?
I never
yeah, once I heard it was a Chinese company i NEVER downloaded that shit. I'm good

You essentially answered your own question. Zuck didn't set out to replace MySpace. He set out to make a site to rank women and, for whatever reason since I don't know the history, it became a MySpace killer.
Making something new and having it become something else unintended is one thing, it seems, while specifically setting out to become a "killer" of another site by being a better duplicate is another.
That said, if, hypothetically, Black people created a social media site that's initially only popular with Black ppl, I agree with you that it would very likely become universally popular.
But that's easier said than done. We are trendsetters no doubt but also trend followers. We invent shit everyone wants but also adopt shit and turn it into something everyone wants.
For instance, Black Twitter is essential to the history of Twitter but it wouldn't have existed without Twitter being there first.
Now that Tik Tok may be over, there might be room for something new even something new created by Black coders but that would only be possible by getting rid of Tik Tok first since most people, including Black people, want to be there.
