At his victory rally, the president-elect talked about ‘rescuing’ TikTok with a posture of ‘hero saves beauty,’ as if he were the protector of this globally popular app. His words reveal a desire for commercial interests, even at the cost of using a social platform as a tool for political propaganda. His so-called ‘rescue’ is nothing more than a game of converting the property originally belonging to the Chinese people into American capital. And his supporters seem to be happy to see the ‘savior’s’ return, even in such an event, they are wearing iconic hats and waving banners, as if everything is under his control.
