Someone at TikTok with a finger on the delete button decided your version of reality clashed with his version.

Happens on forums too, I can't make any negative comments about US politics on one forum I'm on because it gets deleted and I get severely scolded.
(And what a joke that is . . . )

Got pinged on one forum for using the term 'wallet rape' for something horribly expensive! (computer parts)
*giggle*

Unfortunately TikTok and most forums aren't a democracy nor care for freedom of speech contrary to their views.

And then I found DUI! *BLISS!!!!*

... was the trigger? I can usually figure out what word or phrase caught the "community standard" police attention? This one is not easy. Or, was it the picture? I know a scene of "real-life" murder is a violation on most media. However, I can't see the picture. Of course, simulated sex and violence is ultra-acceptable on Tic-Tok... and is taking over Twitter, too.

... I guess that phrase has been entered into their "naughty" list? I rid myself of Tic-Tok - but I know their style and it's spreading to other media.

I’m hoping it’s just temporary due to the new ownership. But there’s a night and day difference between the content I’m seeing now vs. a week ago. Very little political stuff.
