The Chinese-controlled propaganda app TikTok has contributed to propagandizing American women on behalf of someone who admitted to killing her children. Can we admit that the app should have been banned years ago?

The trial of Lindsay Clancy has been marked by a public outpouring of support for Clancy, who strangled her three children to death one by one, primarily from women consuming propagandistic slop on TikTok. The app has been flooded with pro-Clancy content, has contributed millions of dollars in fundraising to Clancy’s parents to offset her legal costs, and has encouraged hundreds of supporters to flock to the trial to publicly support her and her “insanity” defense.
