China may be a big part of the anti-Israel protests by using TikTok to make college campuses more divided. As a senior fellow at the Gatestone Institute and a loud foe of the Communist Party of China, Gordon Chang called the enemy's actions a "act of war" because they use the "curation algorithm of TikTok" to start protests.
"We know about the Hamas videos on that app [TikTok], and 96.5% of them support the terrorist group." "This is like what China did in 2020," Chang said.
When the Houston consulate closed in 2020, a group of spies from the People's Liberation Army went there. "They used big data to find Americans who were likely to join Antifa and Black Lives Matter protests, and then they sent those people TikTok videos that showed them how to riot," he said.
Some of the best colleges in the United States have had anti-Israel protests in the past few weeks. These protests are a way for students to show support for the Palestinian people during the ongoing war in the Middle East.
Because university officials have not done much to stop the problem from getting worse, some of the protests have turned violent, cancelling classes and making Jewish students afraid.
"In 2020, China did it." "It is happening now," Chang repeated as he watched the events on campuses play out.
58% of Americans, according to a study by Reuters Ipsos, think that the Chinese government uses TikTok to change people's minds in the United States.
Some people who do not like the famous social media app say that it lets China spy on Americans and puts U.S. national security at risk.
"I think President Biden has a constitutional obligation to ban the app right away because of what is happening," he said.
House members from both parties passed a bill in March that could lead to a ban on TikTok because the app would no longer be available in U.S. app shops.
