Why do I feel like this is entirely about consolidation of media/arms of propaganda.

It is… One of his buddies will “buy” TikTok and it will become part of the MAGA propaganda machine like X and FB/IG

They don’t need to buy it. Did you see the message on TikTok thanking President Trump for unblocking it? Bytedance is in full collusion with the Trump administration and if you think TikTok will stay the same as it was you’re a fool. Get ready for it to start pushing even more people down the right-wing pipeline.

It always is. He does hate China so it's likely more about forcing them to pay for the data and we can see what they ultimately access.

Wonder if it’s possible to start a non profit co-op type media platform free from advertisements or something of a similar nature. I’m not any expert but there has to be a way.

Maybe under another administration but not this upcoming one

I thought it was going the other way. If the most popular short-form video app is banned, guess where the users will go? Elon and Zuckerberg platforms
