Can you give some examples from the last month or two of these silenced news stories, please (what aspect of it was reported on Tiktok that wasn't in the establishment press)? I see your list, but I could list about ten stories on each from the established press I think, so it's tough to tell what information it is that you're saying you're dependent on Tiktok to get.

Edit: No response, which was what I expected. I believe this person is lying with the aim of influencing people's opinion; i.e. they don't actually value the ability to get news from Tiktok with any specifics that they can talk any further about, but they just crafted that opinion to put out there to create the perception that "people" think Tiktok is a good thing. The silence, when asked for simple details about what they said they believed, is generally a tell (not just that their opinion on the matter is one I disagree with, but that their whole claim to have the opinion in the first place is just some bullshit they fabricated.)
