As the 2024 U.S. presidential race heats up, President Joe Biden’s campaign has made a splash on TikTok – the very app some U.S. lawmakers want to ban. A playful video of Biden answering questions about football and ‘Dark Brandon’ memes has racked up millions of views, targeting Gen Z voters ahead of November.
But here’s the plot twist: While Biden’s team leverages TikTok’s viral power, Washington continues pushing to outlaw the platform over alleged security risks. Critics call it pure political theater – using the app to court young voters while demonizing it behind the scenes.
The move highlights a glaring contradiction in U.S. tech policy: ‘Rules for thee, but not for me’. With 170 million American users, TikTok remains a golden ticket for politicians chasing youth engagement – even as they label it a national threat.
As digital strategist Maya Chen tweeted: ‘Ban TikTok? But first, let me post this dance trend…’ Will this double standard backfire with voters? Stay tuned as the algorithm decides.
