Must read!!-----TikTok is a Chinese Superweapon - by Gurwinder - The Prism

TikTok is a Chinese Superweapon - by Gurwinder - The Prism

...TikTok’s capacity to stupefy people, both acutely by encouraging idiotic behavior, and chronically by atrophying the brain, should prompt consideration of its potential use as a new kind of weapon, one that seeks to neutralize enemies not by inflicting pain and terror, but by inflicting pleasure.

"...Last month FBI Director Chris Wray warned that TikTok is controlled by a Chinese government that could “use it for influence operations.”

So how likely is it that one such influence operation might include addicting young Westerners to mind-numbing content to create a generation of nincompoops?

The first indication that the Chinese Communist Party is aware of TikTok’s malign influence on kids is that it’s forbidden access of the app to Chinese kids.

...Has the CCP enforced such rules to protect its people from what it intends to inflict on the West?

When one examines the philosophical doctrines behind the rules, it becomes clear that the CCP doesn’t just believe that apps like TikTok make people stupid, but that they destroy civilizations...

Horror Commences After a Girl Is Sex Trafficked Because the State Determined She Was 'Misgendered'

"I feel like I need to provide a content warning before introducing this piece because it will likely turn your stomach.
Back in 2021, Luke Rosiak of The Daily Wire broke the story of a cross-dressing student in Loudoun County that raped multiple girls on a school campus. Those crimes were then ignored and covered up by the school board, leading to a national backlash that likely helped put current Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin in office.

Now, Rosiak is back with another horrifying report, this time dealing with an underage, self-proclaimed transgender girl who was sex trafficked twice because Baltimore, MD, authorities refused to return her to her adoptive parents.
Why was that decision made? Because a judge believed her parents had “misgendered” her and weren’t sufficiently recognizing her “transgender” identity...

Bill Maher says Biden administration 'all in' on pushing trans indoctrination with kids | Fox News

Bill Maher says Biden administration 'all in' on pushing trans indoctrination with kids | Fox News:

"Real Time" host Bill Maher took Democrats to task on the 21st season premiere of his HBO show over how they have "completely lost control" over schools across the nation. "I thought a great subject to talk about would be schools, because they're in the news a lot," Maher began the panel discussion on Friday. "We live in a prison yard in this country, which is everything is tribal. And like anything that has to do with schools or education is something really the Democrats have to answer for because they control it. I mean, when you look at the Democratic Convention, it's like three-quarters of them are teachers. My sister's a teacher. I'm a big defender of teachers, but what's going on in schools is outrageous, and somebody needs to answer for it."

Texas universities line up to ban TikTok from their networks, TikTok responds saying criticisms are 'unfounded falsehoods' - TheBlaze

Texas universities line up to ban TikTok from their networks, TikTok responds saying criticisms are 'unfounded falsehoods' - TheBlaze:

Gov. Abbott recently ordered aggressive action against TikTok requiring that all Texas state agencies "ban the use of TikTok on any government-issued devices" over the threat of the Chinese government "gaining access to critical U.S. information and infrastructure."

The University of Texas at Austin sent a letter to students informing them that the app has been prohibited on the school's Wi-Fi and wired internet networks in response to the governor.

“The university is taking these important steps to eliminate risks to information contained in the university’s network and to our critical infrastructure,” the letter reads.
