Maybe I'm entering the cranky old women yelling at kids to get off her lawn phase of my life-- but why are all the TikTok challenges always something ridiculously dangerous? (Emphasis on "ridiculous")
TikTok was designed to promote stupid, inane, and self-destructive memes to Americans (westerners in general).
It's the exact opposite of how it works in China. You would never see this kind of stupid shit on Chinese TikTok.
I'm sure there are plenty of people producing interesting stuff on TikTok, Just as with any user submitted content site, but that's not what the algorithm wants to make sure everybody sees.
I don't use it, but the few times it's opened in browser, it's women showing off boobs and butt in the recommended.
I haven't been interested in downloading TikTok until I read this comment.
Opened it up. Second video is boobs and butt.
That just sounds like porn with more Chinese spyware, and I'm assuming less actual nudity.
Softcore porn to lure you into Chinese brainwashing.
China wants Americans to die in the most absurd ways possible. /s
I wouldnt be suprised if the algorithm pushed it a lil bit more. China has there own for a reason.
I am under the impression that if you are likely to die because of doing these, you likely were going to do something equally stupid and deadly with or without internet guidance at some point.
Cool looking stuff tend to be fast, high, spectacular. And those tend to be harsher on body or straight up dangerous. Even the bucket challenger decade ago was about spectacular large cold water bucket.
Also action movies with stunt actors have taught us a wrong lesson on what is normal and what is dangerous
If it’s not dangerous and stupid or at least wasteful, it’s not a challenge!
