All righty. So, TikTok has now been almost been in the United States. I say almost because

0:05.4

the House of Representatives has now passed a bill that would effectively force TikTok to divest its

0:10.7

Chinese ownership, which makes perfect sense. TikTok is a viral sci-op that was created by the

0:16.4

Chinese government. It's incredibly sophisticated. Algorithmically, it is amazing at picking up viral content

0:21.9

and then magnifying it. But there are editorial choices made inside that algorithm about which

0:26.3

content to magnify. In the United States, the content that gets magnified on TikTok is the most

0:30.7

politically polarizing. It tends to be the most socially contagious. Huge amounts of the

0:35.5

LGBT plus minus divided by sign agenda are pushed by TikTok, particularly

0:38.8

the trans epidemic in the United States, which cannot be explained biologically. That's pushed by

0:44.1

TikTok. And you can tell the difference because TikTok in China doesn't do any of those things.

0:48.4

And to understand just what the Chinese are doing with TikTok, really you should pick up a copy

0:52.6

of Peter Schweitzer's new book Blood Money. He talks at

0:54.5

length about TikTok and what TikTok is doing. So what they're really attempting to do is dissolve

0:59.4

the social unity of the United States through social division, social media division. That is the

1:05.7

goal with regard to TikTok. That's the thing they are attempting to do. And really, there's

1:09.7

nothing new there. There's been a long-time communist strategy. During the Vietnam War, for example, the North Vietnamese understood they didn't have to beat the United States on the battlefield. Far from it, they weren't capable of beating the United States on the battlefield. All they really had to do was keep up the internal pressure in the United States, push their agenda with the peace knicks, and then have the peace knicks

1:28.6

undermine the war effort in Congress, thereby essentially handing South Vietnam over to the

1:33.4

North Vietnamese. China is figuring the same thing. What they are figuring is that if they

1:37.0

wreck whatever social fabric exists in the United States through the means of culture,

1:41.3

which is what TikTok is. They create this very highly

1:44.5

addictive, highly watchable medium, and then they control exactly what people see while gathering

1:49.4

data about you. If they can do all of that, then they can undermine the power of the United
