Not to immediately downgrade this into conspiracies, but these types of articles do give off the impression of invested interests trying to fear monger.

If we wanted to inform people of the "danger" tiktok poses to our country it would involve giving power to the public to see that we have domestic actors that are _nearly_ as bad...

Maybe I'm just biased because I love the NPC in real life trend as well.

Eh I don’t buy it. We always had scare articles. Not to defend the deplorable behavior, but it’s just another complaint about the newest young people.

Remember YouTube? Kids did stupid shit and harassed people for views. They still do.

New medium, new names, same kids doing anything for a few internet points.
