It really is devious how #tiktok is punishing creators who talk about Israel’s or ICE’s crimes.
They don’t just shadowban the videos, but when those people go live, they’ve #banned certain terms from the comments, and typing them is held as a #strike which goes against the creator!
And not just that, but the terms are only banned for certain users, so other people may type them just fine to elicit doubt on the matter.
