Try to own the boomers by electing ANOTHER boomer. At the end of the day, they win.

Today's strip: Suspended
Subtitle: Where there’s a will, there’s a way.
Rollover: The U.S. Constitution is our Community Guidelines
I have an idea for a thread subtitle, I don't know if that's a thing: "Liberal-trolling webcomic artists with similar artstyles, and the people that hate them"

Yeah except one boomer is like "borders should exist" and "marxist race riots are wrong" and "voter fraud is a thing that happens."

Facebook and Twitter are US based companies that have to abide to US regulations. TikTok is based from China, and is known to have spyware and surveillance. And use your contents without consent. So, the ban for TikTok is a legitimate concern.

The US ones have surveillance and spyware too, literally the only difference is one is Chinese. While it's an important difference, it's only one difference. And an argument can be made since each other platform *started* in the US but have banking locations globally and aggregate all data from all users across the entire planet (along with government approval for many) they are similar. I'm unaware of what regulations exist in America for handling data gathered by private companies for users in Australia or Japan.

I'm glad facebook isn't known for surveillance or using your content without consent.

I don't really get the idea, are leftists (which I guess is the guy on the left) okay with Trump going against Tik-Tok? Also the argument against those companies is different, Facebook and Twitter abuse protection as platform while editing content, while Tik-Tok is blamed to harbor spyware.
If anything, there are leftists who want to remove Section 230 to force Twitter and Facebook to edit content even harder.

Past strips have suggested that Stone actively wants President Trump to do something about Facebook and Twitter, so this could be a case of "you'll attempt to legislate against Tiktok, but not the big guys? It's a private company, too."

The general argument here is that Section 230 will do good against social media platforms, despite that it also harms the very place they are voicing their support for. So it's working against your OWN interests just to "own the libs."
A country spying on ANOTHER country's citizens through apps is something any country would be against. What is worth saving with TikTok anyway? All that spyware on a personal citizen's phone would make anybody uneasy.

The takeaway here isn't that leftists are okay with the TikTok thing. It's just they don't defend the logic as much cause TikTok isn't dominated by their people.
It's very simple, but the message is: the government can.

You have to remember that stonetoss is not like antifastonetoss.
For stonetoss, it isn't all 100% partisan. He pokes jokes at himself and the right too, even if he's somewhere on the right.
So the guy in the middle/left is not necessarily a leftist.
The subtitle essentially spells out his point for the comic: That where there's a will there's a way. They could legislate against facebook; they went after 8chan for posting links to the christchurch shooting, even though it was published on facebook (I think that was the shooting, maybe it was one of the others that got 8chan put on the chopping block).
You have to understand that when they say something like going after tiktok for spyware, that the spyware is just the cassus belli. An excuse to go to war. They wanted to go after tiktok and they needed a reason. And they have no shortage of excuses for doing so against facebook or twitter. Where there's a will there's a way. But there isn't a will. There was a will to go after 8chan, but not after facebook, despite the former just having the link and the latter hosting it.
Really just one such event should tell you everything you need to know, but there are many others to find if you're curious and tenacious enough.

Then ban FB and TWT also makes sense because they actually ban people for having specific beliefs they don't agree with.

As a comic strip style thing, I really like the touch of having the green shirt Klurf spread between the two panels. As much as I wanted him to be a lolcow, he has a really good grasp of the medium. It's a simple medium but most webcomics artists are absolute ass at even knowing the conventions much less using them in pleasing ways.
