At home, the U.S.-Canadian Empire’s ruling classes continue to support the genocide. More money, bombs, and most recently, in another bold exercise of capitalist “freedom” of the press, bi-partisan legislation to ban TikTok. While the capitalist legislature claims a ban on TikTok from all U.S. channels by 2025, part of the on-going campaign to seize the platform from China, is for the purposes of “national security,” a recent panel between Secretary of State Blinken and former Presidential candidate Mitt Romney explains what the legislation is really about:

"Some wonder why there was such overwhelming [bipartisan] support for us to shut down potentially TikTok […]” Romney said to Blinken at a McCain Institute keynote conversation. “If you look at the postings on TikTok and the number of mentions of Palestinians relative to other social media sites, it’s overwhelmingly so among TikTok broadcasts. I know that’s of real interest, and the President will get a chance to take action in that regard.”

Yank that collar. This is capitalist freedom.
