UNRELENTING: Tom Cotton Unflinchingly Grills TikTok's CEO At Senate Hearing On Child Online Safety 

Understandable

Don't worry I like Chinese food too. That means that I'm a communist too

And the senator is actually a Chinese food lover but others doing the same are communists?

@@DerCSR😂😂

On a personal note, why would you take a liking to that crap?

Damn

😅

Damn

HAHAHAHAHAH

😂😂😂

You too can’t distinguish between a Chinese communist party member & a liar.

so foolish right? Senator ignorant hahahahahaha

What made you think he does not know?

Racist. They think all Chinese and Asian are one and the same.

CEO: Your Honor, I am from Singapore Senator: Oh right, so where is Singapore in China?

He’s cute too

He is patient indeed 😮

hes probably writing swear words on the note pad every time the senator cut him off

Agree

@@ot7stan207hes obviously not fluent so he has to write to keep track of long questions

Yet, again they managed to turn into a hated rant about China and Communism!

@@katiecheung7993 this hearing should be called hearing about tiktok relationships with the chinese communist party and relationships about the ceos possible connections of the chinse communist party

@@viaakvia Feel like this CEO had been forced under false pretence to turn up for a meeting about Tiktok, but he was actually being interogate about his part in the Communist Party (which as usual, was falsely assumed by the US government. Just like the falsified information to invade Iraq).

Is it really though? Are we just not supposed to care about the Chinese government spying on us through your stupid kids using tiktok? Oh ok. Then let's just keep talking about what the parent'sresponsibility should be in the first place then. No please. Go on. These kids need to be "safe".

​@@viaakviaThank you. At least someone gets it.

Like ive said before, these senators could not care less about the victims and their families. This video proves my point!!

.

Senators did not care about child safety actually, they do take care their votes by expressing anger and opinion to attractive voters' attention.

Senator Cotton is setting up the stage and the argument to disqualify the CEOs clearly. There are other videos from other senators where they are asking the child safety questions.

Does China also bring the media to Chinese government to tell the media what they can do or not?

Singapore îs far from small

@@bauuau18 no, from a singaporean here, it definitely is. we're literally called the "little red dot".

​@@windiedoessomething970 I think he means in terms of gdp and education

@@windiedoessomething970 geographically yes, but otherwise no

Country size yes it is small, influence no

Me when I have to explain where Cambodia is. It’s between Thailand and Vietnam.

They're ignorants

I think it’s hard for Americans to understand because the size of their country. My home country an island nation can fit inside a few of the states I imagine. I live in Texas but if something happens in New York or Atlanta they ask me if I’m close to it and if it’s okay. When something does happen in my states they think I’m to far away from it because the sheer size of the country. American’s aren’t geologically challenged they know where England is, Canada, Mexico etc. my mom knows where Korea is, China, Hong Kong, Taiwan etc. it’s just a matter of where you grew up, what languages you speak. As well as how the relationship of language and culture means to you. My mom has no idea where Iran is in relation to Iraq I’m not sure I do. We don’t speak Farsi, Urdu, or even Arabic. So these places to us don’t mean much so why would it matter to know where they are? I know general locations of places like South Africa, Mauritius, the horn of east Africa. Asks me to name major cities of Africa and I may get some right and some wrong. It’s simple cultural understanding.

Well... Most of them don't even understand that Spain isn't in Mexico and Europe is a continent, not a country with Paris as the capital

The amount of times I heard people from the US say stuff like "that's an European thing" "he's from Europe" or "they do that in europe"...as if it is one homogeneous thing and not completely different countries, languages and cultures.​@SaraCalvo-cl4rm

Then you were already losing them.

Exactly. I feel sorry for him.

That's how they try to hide their fault . Sg news always criticize every country now got karma face to face....

It was really a big international joke, and showed how low an American senator is.

Amen! I will never let my kids access social media up until they reach a proper age I am confident that they wont easily be corrupted by anything that appears in their newsfeed.

Not every parents are educated, many have not used it and they really don't know what tik tok or other apps are, they have no idea what kids do in their mobile.

@@lingarajkudari2959 The child shouldn’t even be on iPad or any of that. They should be reading a book or going outside. I didn’t get a phone till I was 17, I read and went outside for fun. The parent know what an IPad is, they know what an internet is, they know well enough what the internet is capable of. Yes it could be prevented. Look at Asia for example, why are Asian so much more educated than American, why are they more cultured, why are they more mature than the average American. It’s because their parents are extremely strict at a young age (children) I’m an American and I can see the difference….

Looking for someone to blame now.

​@@lingarajkudari2959 ignorance doesn't remove guilt

And asked questions that couldn't be answered because they were wrong and/or obsolete in themselves... The man couldn't have been a member of the Chinese Communist Party because, as a Singaporean, he wouldn't have been allowed to.

Truth is he does, if you actually watch this very video you commented. This guy was the CFO of Bytedance when the Chinese Communist Party aquired 1% of the company, and then the very next day he became the CEO of TikTok.

It’s literally embarrassing for any American for their own senator, which studied at Harvard to ask some stupid questions, and immediately declines any accusation 😂😂😂

I'm American and am embarrassed

Yes exactly. I can't even imagine that. You can take one glance at a map to know that Singapore is not in China

​@@abdessamadao1973 Nope. Educate yourself.

he's pretty slow, don't worry you get used to it after living in america for a while

Totally agreed. The senator might be on mushrooms. Cotton is all over the place. I’m sure all the journalists in the back have nothing written down.

Guess Tom is unfamiliar with the term 'expatriate' regarding his work in China.

😂

Where’s he’s from is irrelevant. What they’re doing is.

Cotton is cotton-brained.

At least Cotton understands basic biology.

And they try to make this title to persuade people from commenting negatively against the tiktok CEO, that's such a desperate move. US is mostly about propaganda instead of seeking the truth. Just like how many americans would comment how they are superior heroes in vietnam war vs the vietnamese being evil, the truth is US did tons of mistakes, sent their soldiers there that mistreat, torture and rape the women. Invaded north vietnam by constant bombardment and agent orange that has attribute of damaging DNA(you can search on google image the after effects/deformities on new borns from agent orange the americans used). But the reason why it started is first, vietnam used to be french colony and France installed a french puppet in south vietnam, vietnamese tried to kick out the french and failed while assuming that they can't beat the white people. During WW2 japan kicked french out of vietnam and then Japan retreated due to US nukes, France tried to make vietnam it's colony again but failed this time due to vietnamese realising that white people are not invincible due to the japanese invasion/occupation. Ho Chi Minh wanted to be ally with US, in exchange, he'll help fight the imperialist japan at the time, but US denied due to pressure from France not being ally with US if the alliance with VN and US were to happen. Then there was fear of domino effect, and the US fabricated an event which supposedly a north vietnamese vessel attacked a US vessel, which upon modern investigation was found out to be a coax, which was the lie that gave US a green flag to intervene in south east asia. The Geneva Accords of 1954, which were aimed at resolving the conflict in Vietnam. As part of these accords, it was agreed that Vietnam would be temporarily divided along the 17th parallel, with the North controlled by the communist forces led by Ho Chi Minh and the South controlled by the anti-communist forces led by President Ngo Dinh Diem. The accords also stipulated that there would be a nationwide election in 1956 to reunify the country under a single government. However, this election never took place. The United States and the government of South Vietnam, led by President Diem, were concerned that if the election happened, Ho Chi Minh and the communists would likely win, given Ho Chi Minh's popularity in the country. As a result, the election was not held, and the division between North and South Vietnam became more permanent. This contributed to the escalation of tensions and eventually led to the Vietnam War. The division lasted until the reunification of North and South Vietnam in 1976, with the establishment of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam. The reason why all these bad things happen is due to US culture of villainize without going into context and understanding people's perspective(just like in most marvel plot, it's just heroes vs villain who mostly have bad/simple motives into harming others). All this could've been avoided, and even today, vietnam is quite pro-american despite not being under US control, it's just that vietnamese don't like foreign forces to govern their own people. Vietnamese were vietnamese first, and communist second at the time, communism was just used as a tool to push out imperialism/foreign forces.

Exactly right, Forbes should go back to news reporting 101 and also stop pretending you’re Fox News

tom went to harvard and served in the us military. no wonder Iraq and Afghanistan lost

US cannot use the ICJ to sue China for genocide in Xin Jiang because the US does not recognize the ICJ, while most of the world does.

Well Harvard and still does not that Singapore is a nation and city.... or it's about getting the filthy votes...

They were all leading questions with a built in catch 22. So yes and we gotcha, Say no and you're effectively lying as there is zero room for nuance and circumstance. These senators really do appear as conspiratorial and ignorant as their constituencies. What a silly game to play. Also how does one know what the teenager watched before they took their life. Is there a direct 1:1 history that you can browse though showing what tik tok videos were watched and what search criteria was used? Or did that teen's ghost come back and tell the GOP national committee just how bad the commie tik tok machine is? I don't mean in anyway to make light of their death or choice to end their life. I just find these claims to be dubious and purposefully made to seem extraordinarily egregious.

Because its "yes or no" question

@@TheRoadrunnevery “yes or no” question that was asked required context to not allow the answer to be misinterpreted

that is the AMERICAN STYLE OF DEMOCRACY

He didn't ask questions, he made the affirmations he wanted and put a question mark after

Yes

This is actually pretty soft atleast they take turns and aren't screaming look at Canada or Europe conduct court it's a shouting match...stop worrying about if your tiktok account will be deleted America is just going to make their own version

I wonder why he can't answer simple questions... it only needs simple answers...why beat around it... mind games?

@@coreymonday1375 Yes, pretty civilized compared to canada

fun to watch people take tik tok ceo's side.

TikTok is owned by the Chinese communist party this has nothing to do with race, stop using the race card

He went to China, taking funds from Beijing, his citizenship is irrelevant in this case. He could be a CCP member without being Chinese citizen.

It is clear that this guy & tiktok does.

@@x01021 I think from another viewpoint , All the four questions could have different answers so the senator had to pin point the question

You mean elementary school?

No, it is a smart and well-executed plan focusing on reinforcing the anti-China sentiment. The point is not to ask about the TikTok CEO's link to China, the answer doesn't matter, the question especially the repetition of the same question is what's important. And now every headline either being 'I'm not Chinese' or 'I'm Singaporean' or '...denies the link to 'Communist party or China'/'China''. Strengthening the concept of Communism is bad, having link to China is dangerous, there is no doubt no one wants to be associated with China, so stay clear from China and the Chinese. This is the important message. How the media covers the report is also supporting this message. It is very smart strategy.

Tom Cotton is a Harvard grad... image him asking all these irrelevant dumb questions and then image the sheer number of Americans to the left of him on an intelligence scale egging him on. There you have your answer.

It's not about geography, it's about eye shape.

The senator phrases is as a simple yes or no question but in this case it is not, it is more complicated

S is meant to be a show. The senator already has the answers he wants stated, and he actually says them after asking the CEO the quaestion. All of this in pomp and circumstance to make the senators try and score political points for the base.

The questions are important than the answers 😂

it is an kind of interrogation, in order to test his reaction

CEO can’t prove that he is not with CCP cuz he can’t answer anything that’s forbidden to say by CCP. Like, if senator asking me, someone has no fear or tie to CCP, I would just say “yes, I agree with Joe Biden that Xijingping is a dictator”. Because if I were working for CCP I clearly afraid of making such statements to the public. That’s all senator trying to know. And I think the testimony is very clear of it.

tik tok is the worst for exploiting kids and girls especially, we need to protect kids from these media outlets such as TikTok from helping traffic kids this is shameful, tikTok should be banned in America. but also all other media outlets or social media platforms should be checked on and rules put in place, now it is the Wild West for these kids, and now social platforms are the largest problem in history for kids and their mental health

The CEO is answering to Animals.

Eh, I can understand why he's asking so many specific questions. As a fictional example, if I told a British exporter during the Cold War Era that I thought tea was mud and preferred coffee, it might give away my preference for American food staples or World War 2 rations. Although this might not mean I'm American, it could indicate I no longer participate in a culturally acceptable practice or tradition. As another example, I recently spoke with an Afghanistan War veteran whose emergency plan in the event of societal collapse was to move to some remote caves in New Hampshire or Vermont with his guns and hunt for his food. I get the hunting idea came from his US military survival training as per his own admission, but why live in a cave? Why live in some caves? The Americans refer to this psychological and behavioral change as "going native". As a victim of a US brainwashing programme, I can personally attest that even diet can change for people subjected to enhanced interrogation and conditioning. I used to be able to eat normal food like a normal person. Now I'm on a restricted diet due to the severity of the stomach issues caused by the stress of the multiple assaults against my person.

It's the red scare brain rot. But also - Reagan's trickle down lies have made it so young people can't even afford to have children. In 20 years - rent has tripled and wages haven't budged. The birth bill alone costs a year in wages. The working class is being price gouged out of existence. This is why the tent villages are getting so big. We're literally putting bandaids on problems created by wealth, land and home hoarding by the few. It's actually worse than much poorer countries because many of those countries at least allow ppl to build shacks to live out of. Instead our unhoused are forced to live with only fabric as protection from subzero Temps. That and the bomb profiteering are what makes me embarrassed to be from the US.

America is being run to the ground by Southeasterners.

To be honest, I feel that the countries of the world are getting crazier, the politicians are getting more extreme, the people are getting more divided, and the Third World War is getting closer

Valid comment, they were really magnanimous and helpful + hard working. Now it's Biden's CCM.

Either they have a time limit or the Senator ate really spicy indian curry for lunch and really needed to go

As long as you can be louder than the other one, people can only hear your story

@@tester3x Not all were Yes and No questions but the witness got interrupted anyway. Not all questions can be answered with a Yes or No. I don't think the questioners were really interested in genuine answers but to push their own agendas by "fixing" answers.

No, almost all hearings are this pointless. They are just grandstanding opportunities for Congressmen to issue soundbytes for campaign season.

Bullying act by the senator, so disgusting.

Exactly. Just a waste of time and a show for the useless politicians to justify themselves.

This is a hearing

Hearings in the USA is more or less a show trial. They try to list as many questions as possible rapid fire to make the questioned reveal as much information as they can, then go back and get the FBI or whatever investigation team to look into the validity of every one of those answers. They want to hear what he says on as many topics as possible, so they can attack him on any inconsistencies they might find. The Senator may occasionally throw in some personal comment like the coincidence in appointment to position of CEO, but it's still mostly just bullet point checking the boxes. They're there to catch you on anything they can find, not to listen to facts, much like the American legal system, which is why for normal courts defendants have the right to silence and a lawyer.
