Deep dives
The Rise of TikTok Bias
TikTok has become a platform where there is a perceived bias towards supporting Palestine or being critical of Israel. The overwhelming majority of TikToks show support for Palestine. Some argue that this bias is due to bot farms and the desire for attention online. However, it's important to consider the demographics of TikTok, which include users from all over the world. English-speaking users alone represent a significant portion. The conversation on TikTok is a global one, and the consensus opinions may not necessarily align with American perspectives.
