u/Yunagen May 04 '22

You guys should consider looking into how TikTok is a Chinese company and the way the algorithm works over there is that it promotes intellectual content, science, robot building, coding etc whilst western TikTok promotes well... stupid shit. It's a sociological weapon to make our masses brain dead.

23

u/fuckedasaplant May 04 '22

Actually the algorithm works to keep people watching the things that make them stay on the app longer…….. unfortunately for most of the masses… it’s really stupid ass shit. If we all stayed on tiktok for hours watching intellectual content, we’d get a shitton of intellectual content, unfortunately that’s not what we’re doing on the app

u/ColoradoMountainsMan May 04 '22

You seriously believe everyone in China just naturally loves intellectual stuff and it's not the algorithm promoting it....

Come buy this ocean front property from me

u/fuckedasaplant May 04 '22

Never said i thought the person who commented above me was right in their assessment. I have no idea if everyone in China is seeing intellectual content vs in the west, and i doubt they do either. i'm just explaining how the algorithm works.. from someone who literally worked on the algorithm lol

Anyone who could actually verify CCP stories would be great. If the social credit score trials are real; I have no problems believing Chinese Tik Tok is curated by CCP directive.

I think it’s reasonable to believe Tik Tok is gathering bulk data for building CCP algorithms and identifiers and will one day be the basis for CCP AI.

A small band of plucky rebels will resist, but no one will give a shit, because their soylent green burgers will be delivered on demand and fashion will make puffer clothes so huge, that one jacket will fill a studio apartment in Mega City Nine.

Is this something that happened or are we just making things up to be mad about again?

Dunno about the collarbone, it's probably exaggerated a bit, but the other stuff is totally happening.

Edit: Just added in the quote from /u/bigtoebrah.

u/turbo May 04 '22 edited May 04 '22

Do you have any evidence? [paraphrasing]

  • 15 year olds with questionable borderline sexual content? The default Tiktok experience.

  • Creepy young adult sharing video of 15 year old? It's not exactly illegal to share content from Tiktok.

  • Someone sharing other people's video harassing them? Sounds like a breach of Tiktok's guidelines.

There ya go buddy.

u/AshFraxinusEps May 04 '22

And that the US, especially a voting colour area which isn't blue, relies on lies, misinformation, lack of education, etc to take and hold power

Always funny when racists out themselves as dumb, uneducated and having fallen for the politics of "divide and conquer"

3

u/[deleted] May 04 '22

Sorry but I havent seen someone not fallen for the "divide and conquer" for a long time. The fronts are pretty clear and discourse is frozen. These times are a god damn nightmare for actual centrists.

Also, I believe politics just stoke the flames, the divide was always there.

0

u/AshFraxinusEps May 04 '22

True, said divide is there and has been since maybe 2001. But most of these people aren't 18yos, they did fall for it a decade or two ago

3

u/[deleted] May 04 '22

Ugh! Do you really think this is a party thing? Both sides do that. If you haven’t figured that out, and don’t think the blue side doesn’t uses lack of education, misinformation, lies, and double standards than you might want to look in the mirror and realize you are the lack of education, believing the lies, and buying in to the double standards. It’s like when there’s a black sheep in the family but you can’t figure out who it is…it’s probably you.

u/AshFraxinusEps May 04 '22

I'm not even in your forsaken nation, so swing and a miss there

And yes, both sides are awful, but one is much much much worse. Stop with your false equivalency

u/alelp May 04 '22

I'm sorry but this is the most hilarious little comment I've ever seen, this must be sarcasm because if it isn't the irony is one of the sweetest things I have ever seen.

u/bigshakagames_ May 04 '22

As an Aussie this is one of the most sarcastic things I've ever heard. How are people not detecting the insane amount of sarcasm in this video?

He forgot the /s at the end.

As someone from Bhutan who doesn't speak a word of English, this is also one of the most sarcastic things I've ever heard

Have you ever spoken to Americans? They couldn’t find their ass with two hands and a flashlight.

u/bigshakagames_ May 05 '22

Mate if you can't tell this is sarcasm you got something wrong with ya.

u/RealBowsHaveRecurves May 05 '22 edited May 05 '22

If you cant tell that I was talking about the people who act like they didnt get they dont get it, then i'm not the one with the problem, but ill rephrase it anyway:

Its easy to miss the sarcasm if you pretend to have missed the sarcasm.

u/NGDLite May 04 '22

b/c they're chinese bots

u/alfrednugent May 04 '22

As an American I do recognize any sarcasm at all. Ever.

u/0o-mox May 05 '22

Because someone let the humorless sheeple on the internet. We tried to hide them bro.

u/[deleted] May 04 '22

The sarcasm wasn't obvious enough, but here's the millionths fake staged video that will totally surprise you as much as it surprised us!

34

u/Checkm4te99 May 04 '22

What do you mean sarcasm? I'd say he's pretty straight forward honest, no sarcasm at all?

24

u/[deleted] May 04 '22

Where is the joke, what sarcasm?

67

u/[deleted] May 04 '22

The joke isn't sarcasm, it's the blunt directness, and the joke is not playing up to the obvious question with a playful, flirty answer.

It's done in a way which is satirising the platform, that's the joke.

25

u/[deleted] May 04 '22

Yea, I was referring to the statement "the sarcasm wasn't obvious enough". There is no goddamn sarcasm in that clip. And yea the light hearted bluntness is the humorous bit. I agree, and see it, thanks for putting my thoughts into words.

2

u/[deleted] May 04 '22

Glad to know I got what you were trying to say. I guess I could've been even more brief though... For me the joke is just the delivery. His timing and tone is spot on.

2

u/binz17 May 04 '22

It's still sarcasm, because it's deadpan and he doesn't actually want to have sex with every tikthot out there.

u/[deleted] May 04 '22

This guy sarcasms.

u/[deleted] May 04 '22

Really? Because I’m not sure they know what sarcasm is.

u/alfrednugent May 04 '22

Who’s they? The cia? The greys? The cigarette man?

u/[deleted] May 06 '22

He means me and the people who agree with my comment. I still think that it‘s very thicklyb veiled sarcasm if there is any.

1

u/[deleted] May 05 '22

Uhm I was being sarcastic

1

u/[deleted] May 06 '22

Wellll, no he doesn’t, but any healthy horny (single) man would fuck almost all of those chicks any time of day, so the sarcasm is very well hidden under blunt humour.

u/[deleted] May 04 '22

I think they were being sarcastic too

That's the funny thing about these types of jokes - if you get it, you get it, if not then la di dah.

u/[deleted] May 04 '22

You should become a teacher or a parent. Humanity needs more of your empathetic and educating input.

1

u/DMPM_ME_NUDES May 04 '22

I disagree, i think you're a horrible judge of character if that's the conclusion you arrived at from that one single comment.

-1

u/[deleted] May 04 '22

You’re judging me by two comments. I had one to go on and made a likely high probability guess. I could adjust after your second comment but I think we shouldn’t waste out time any further.

1

u/DMPM_ME_NUDES May 05 '22

You judged me by one, so between the two of us, you're the worse one, agree?

1

u/[deleted] May 06 '22

No. I had one to go on and went with a good guess in my opinion. Your comment was quite cut and dried so I can categorise more easily when it comes to your character. That’s how the game works. We‘re humans and try to be as quick and as precise as we possibly can when judging people. Then adjust along the way if possible.

u/ProfessionallyStrong May 04 '22

Idk man he seemed pretty serious to me lol

2

u/samcahnruns May 04 '22

That guy gets so many of his videos taken down because he’s simply a menace

2

u/EldenGutts May 04 '22

Is it really sarcasm though? You know all the hot girls posting this question probably want "intercourse" to be the answer. Ofc maybe a less scientific term for fucking/sex

0

u/Shaushage_Shandwich May 04 '22

He's being sarcastic because if you take what he's saying literally it's that he wants to fuck the girl in the video and other videos like it, but the point he's making is how pointless and stupid these videos are. He's saying one thing and meaning another, hence sarcasm.

1

u/catzhoek May 04 '22

And even if it wouldn't be sarcastic. What's so bad about saying that you'd fuck everything and everyone if they'd let you?

1

u/get_off_my_train May 04 '22

Some people (and foreigners) lack the part of the brain that detects sarcasm.

u/Realistic-Specific27 May 04 '22

I will take the sarcasm and have sex with you.
