People on TikTok are also very naive, the amount of doubt or double-checking facts is very low. Someone can upload a video of “real audio from Titan submersible implosion” and people eat it up.
Then they’ll make fun of boomers posting “Amen” on Facebook’s relentless AI-generated soldier/Jesus pictures without realizing.
Do you know how many people have told me that tik tok is their only source of news and they can't trust anything else?
At least 5 separate people.
The world should honestly just stop....protecting people that do dumb shit.
Mmmmmm, eugenics..
No. Just people fighting for the Darwin awards.
YES THE SOLDIER JESUS CABIN CREW POSTS!!!
Love em. Also the “I made this with my hands” and “why don’t these pictures ever trend???”
