Careful with your phrasing, sounds like a dog whistle for antisemitism. I would phrase it: The USA is destroying what is left of it’s reputation to maintain a stronghold in the Middle East by allowing the IDF to commit various war crimes while colonizing Gaza and the West Bank. This is helped by AIPAC (Israel PAC) lobbying (legally bribing) US politicians with a lot of money.
I do agree that this Tiktok ban is more for content censure than protecting Americans. If they wanted to protect people, they would create hard data collection and selling regulation, then ban Tiktok if they violated it. I would like to see the data Facebook collects next to the data Tiktok collects.
