    I spend just as much time on tiktok as I do on Lemmy and I have not seen a single one of these videos so… Either this extremely exaggerated or tiktok is doing something about this.

      It’s your bubble. Tiktok is the most echoey echo chamber of all social media.

      Now don’t get me wrong, I like tiktok, I like the algorithm, but you gotta understand what it is. I also haven’t seen one of these videos, but I am sure they are out there.

      If you want to find these videos, start a fresh profile and immediately start searching for Trump rally videos and any other right wing stuff, you will quickly get shoved into political Tiktok and I guarantee you will find some of these videos.

      The one thing I know about tik Tok is “the algorithm” zeroes in on your tastes real fast, so just because you don’t see it doesn’t mean it isn’t there, it just means you probably don’t consume political Tok toks (which sound miserable…)

          I’ve seen several pf those doctored videos on my girls feed, cause she isn’t too into politics and knew I would know better.

          My guess is you watch too much politic stuff so you would know doctored stuff way too early. But to those that don’t follow its a lot easier to fool
