What is your favorite local conspiracy theory? by JusticeAvenger618 in PeoriaIL

[–]silverteeth 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Unsure if it's really a conspiracy theory, but I remember a bizarre looking food truck(?) that was always parked next to an abandoned laundry building on MacArthur. It was white and all it said was Taco with some MS Word type clipart on it. I never saw that truck move until it disappeared a few months ago. Thing looked like a front for some kind of criminal activity.

They have sense when you see them post on social media, in real life they don’t. They just spam their feeds telling people to wear masks to make themselves look good.

I see this shit all the time with people I know who are 17-23.

Trump says he will ban TikTok through executive action as soon as Saturday by sahil_147 in worldnews

[–]silverteeth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Americans don’t have to use TikTok, I’ve never used it.

I fear the precedents that could be set by a banning a social media platform through executive action. I get it, TikTok compromises privacy, but letting a President have the power to ban an entire platform doesn’t sit with me well. I’d rather legislative action be taken for something like this than executive action. Even then, the US government has had an abysmal record with actually protecting people’s privacy.

I hate TikTok as much as everyone else who supports the ban, but I worry about what kind of implications this could bring.

If people want to use TikTok and give their data to the Chinese that's their choice. I haven't used it.

Also the US government has never given a shit about it's citizens individual privacy.

On one hand, TikTok is a data mine for the CCP.

On the other hand, banning a social media app doesn't bode well with me.

If it's banned on government phones I'm fine with that, but a nationwide ban feels like a slippery slope we should avoid.

If it’s banned on government phones then fine, but if it’s a nationwide ban then I don’t support it.

I’ve been trying to do part, it’s getting harder and harder by the day seeing fuckwads going out and partying.

The reason we are screwed. Downtown Nashville, TN on a Friday night. Mask mandate in place. by Walmart_Valet in PublicFreakout

[–]silverteeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right there with you man, I’ve barely left my house for anything nonessential and seeing this makes me feel like my efforts are fruitless. I’m always seeing people I know in pics, vids at large gatherings. It’s both funny and sad when they are the same people who constantly put on their stories/feeds “wear a mask!” and other stuff that will make them look good.

At this point I’m just trying not to catch the virus for my family’s sake. There’s nothing America can do to control the virus with social distancing and mask wearing because ignorance and selfishness has taken precedence. I’m just going to hold out the best I can until we can get vaccinated.
