What are these citing? 821 00:43:04,120 --> 00:43:07,600 Speaker 5: Is their inability are they like to actually say what 822 00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:11,600 Speaker 5: is happening regardless of its intent or whatever? You know 823 00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:12,760 Speaker 5: what I mean, or like the intention? 824 00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:15,319 Speaker 3: I guess they don't even want to allege that they're 825 00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:17,439 Speaker 3: engaging in censorship like. 826 00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:21,400 Speaker 1: That right, you're talking about why is TikTok saying. 827 00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:23,680 Speaker 9: That no, why or like why CNN. 828 00:43:23,440 --> 00:43:27,600 Speaker 1: Why CNN being so like middle of the road, because 829 00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:32,280 Speaker 1: that's that's told them. So they're all the dark leaders 830 00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:35,879 Speaker 1: have told them is the is the thing that they're 831 00:43:35,920 --> 00:43:40,000 Speaker 1: missing is that they need to be more middle of 832 00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:42,439 Speaker 1: the road. They need to do you know, you saw 833 00:43:42,680 --> 00:43:45,120 Speaker 1: how Kamala Harris ran to the right and how well 834 00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:48,120 Speaker 1: that went well. They were like that, that's what we 835 00:43:48,200 --> 00:43:51,200 Speaker 1: need to do. We need to instead of giving people 836 00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:54,160 Speaker 1: what they want, we give people what they want from 837 00:43:54,239 --> 00:43:57,560 Speaker 1: other people and then we're for no. 838 00:43:57,520 --> 00:43:58,839 Speaker 9: One mm hmm yeah. 839 00:43:59,440 --> 00:43:59,640 Speaker 5: Yeah. 840 00:44:00,280 --> 00:44:04,960 Speaker 1: The idea that this there's no way to know, like 841 00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:14,480 Speaker 1: they literally in this CNN article shucks because the the 842 00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:19,200 Speaker 1: fucking I cannot think of the word the algorithm is 843 00:44:19,239 --> 00:44:24,879 Speaker 1: behind because the algorithm is a black box, so we'll 844 00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:27,520 Speaker 1: never know. And it's like maybe you just tried dming 845 00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:30,520 Speaker 1: the word epstein to somebody, like try that. 846 00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:32,840 Speaker 5: It's also like we literally have been given our algorithms 847 00:44:32,880 --> 00:44:35,279 Speaker 5: on Instagram there it isn't a black box like you 848 00:44:35,320 --> 00:44:36,400 Speaker 5: can look at an individual. 849 00:44:36,560 --> 00:44:39,560 Speaker 3: So yeah, I just like how when they're talked, when 850 00:44:39,560 --> 00:44:42,919 Speaker 3: they're asked about it like a spokesperson for TikTok just goes, well, 851 00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:46,759 Speaker 3: we don't have rules against sharing the name Epstein indirect messages, 852 00:44:46,920 --> 00:44:50,600 Speaker 3: so we're investigating why something that's weird we have rules 853 00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:51,160 Speaker 3: about that. 854 00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:54,239 Speaker 1: That's crazy. So just you know, officially we don't have 855 00:44:54,360 --> 00:44:56,719 Speaker 1: rules about that, but behind the scenes, there might be 856 00:44:57,200 --> 00:44:59,960 Speaker 1: some filters being set up. Yeah, this all feels very remnant. 857 00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:02,840 Speaker 1: So the time TikTok was seemingly blocking users from writing 858 00:45:02,880 --> 00:45:06,640 Speaker 1: free Palestine. When the app returned after being taken offline 859 00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:10,080 Speaker 1: in the US, remember like the app went away, came back, 860 00:45:10,120 --> 00:45:13,759 Speaker 1: and suddenly people couldn't write free Palestine. So this is 861 00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:17,759 Speaker 1: the wild ass journalism that CNN hasn't thought of. The 862 00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:21,799 Speaker 1: people at four or four Media, a great site, were like. 863 00:45:21,880 --> 00:45:24,760 Speaker 1: I tried this myself on Tuesday morning using two different 864 00:45:24,760 --> 00:45:28,399 Speaker 1: throwaway TikTok accounts. Using one account, I could comment free 865 00:45:28,440 --> 00:45:31,080 Speaker 1: Palestine without a problem, and that comment is still up 866 00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:34,520 Speaker 1: as of Wednesday morning. Using another, my free Palestine comments 867 00:45:34,520 --> 00:45:38,440 Speaker 1: were immediately removed repeatedly, and I received a notification that 868 00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:42,080 Speaker 1: I had violated the TikTok community guidelines. I could comment 869 00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:48,000 Speaker 1: with a nonsense phrase free shavocado, free Shavaka do Hell yeah, yeah, 870 00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:51,560 Speaker 1: using that same account, however, and TikTok didn't remove it, 871 00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:54,040 Speaker 1: So I feel like that was pretty straightforward. I think 872 00:45:54,040 --> 00:45:57,919 Speaker 1: we did the experiment that CNN seemed to think was impossible, 873 00:45:58,520 --> 00:46:02,399 Speaker 1: and back then you'll never have to write that Jack, Yes, 874 00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:06,840 Speaker 1: back then you'll never guess what TikTok's excuse was for 875 00:46:07,040 --> 00:46:11,200 Speaker 1: why the thing was magically eating posts that said free 876 00:46:11,200 --> 00:46:16,640 Speaker 1: Palestine and kicking those people off. Temporary instability m exactly 877 00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:21,360 Speaker 1: the same thing. It's not not true, temporary the exact 878 00:46:21,400 --> 00:46:23,239 Speaker 1: same excuse. 879 00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:26,200 Speaker 9: Do you guys watch vander Punt Rules. 880 00:46:26,160 --> 00:46:28,240 Speaker 1: Only the first couple I'm aware of it. 881 00:46:28,840 --> 00:46:30,920 Speaker 5: Like seeing in all these people reporting reminds me of 882 00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:33,480 Speaker 5: like Jax Taylor admitting to cheating. He's like, there's actually 883 00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:37,280 Speaker 5: no way to know if I did, if it was existing. However, 884 00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:41,279 Speaker 5: those women I don't. It's like none of it. And 885 00:46:41,360 --> 00:46:43,880 Speaker 5: you're like, we could just ask, you could tell us, you. 886 00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:48,640 Speaker 1: Could say in your brain having experience. 887 00:46:48,280 --> 00:46:49,680 Speaker 9: No, I couldn't speak from nobody. 888 00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:53,399 Speaker 1: That happened largely for you to know if I'm telling 889 00:46:53,440 --> 00:46:54,080 Speaker 1: the truth or not. 890 00:46:54,320 --> 00:46:57,120 Speaker 9: So stability was temporarily instable. 891 00:46:57,320 --> 00:47:02,640 Speaker 3: So therefore a conclusion could be drawn, whereas the Asian 892 00:47:03,040 --> 00:47:07,880 Speaker 3: countries such as and therefore. 893 00:47:08,040 --> 00:47:11,439 Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe someone just accidentally bumped the switches that turn 894 00:47:11,520 --> 00:47:17,960 Speaker 1: on and off ice and Epstein likes power outage and 895 00:47:18,760 --> 00:47:22,680 Speaker 1: temporary instability causes them to ban account. 896 00:47:23,520 --> 00:47:26,680 Speaker 3: I mean people, It's funny because I was looking at 897 00:47:26,680 --> 00:47:29,120 Speaker 3: the TikTok subreddit to see because a lot of like 898 00:47:29,160 --> 00:47:31,400 Speaker 3: the people on there, I don't know how much they represent, 899 00:47:31,480 --> 00:47:33,640 Speaker 3: sort of like all users, but they're all like what, 900 00:47:33,880 --> 00:47:36,279 Speaker 3: we're getting the fuck off this, I'm on red Scent, 901 00:47:36,440 --> 00:47:39,520 Speaker 3: I'm on fucking up scroll, They're all like leaving.

They're just trying to mute any kind 911 00:48:12,480 --> 00:48:14,560 Speaker 3: of thing where people are going to exchange ideas and 912 00:48:14,600 --> 00:48:17,719 Speaker 3: begin to be like that's right, holy shit, Oh my god. 913 00:48:17,800 --> 00:48:19,719 Speaker 3: Let me put the pieces together, or let me go 914 00:48:19,840 --> 00:48:23,160 Speaker 3: further in my education to understand what the forces are 915 00:48:23,200 --> 00:48:25,120 Speaker 3: that are affecting my day to day even my little 916 00:48:25,160 --> 00:48:28,279 Speaker 3: app where I was just watching hamsters make little pancakes. 917 00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:31,799 Speaker 1: But you know that's this is the stake time being 918 00:48:31,840 --> 00:48:35,720 Speaker 1: controlled by a group that involves the Ellisons.
