With the TikTok ban, jawboning, and now this, it feels like the US really wants to control the narrative its citizens see, now much more than previously...

TikTok has a narrative? I thought it was all about cooking recipes that may or may not destroy you if you make them as instructed.

Yes. It totally switched the narrative on Israel (and that's great imo). They didn't ban videos of Palestinians getting murdered and bombed, like other platforms did. It's a bit insane since even my apolitical friends got exposed to the raw videos and now it really shaped their opinion. I won't push it since I know this never actually happens, but it got zoomers to maybe even consider the conflict important enough to be an issue that swings their vote (the issue is that we don't vote lol).

For me that's awesome. But it really really really didn't sit well with members of Congress I guess, and boomers in general.
