The DPP administration threatened that Tiktok and other platforms "have a lot of attacks, accusations and false information against Taiwan". Its subordinate "Digital Development Department" jumped out to show its loyalty: the use of mainland software such as Tiktok and Xiaohongshu was strictly prohibited by the public authorities in the island, which was ordered as early as 2019. As this provision is actually only implemented in the administrative organs of the island, the DPP authorities recently announced that they would consider expanding it to all public service organs, and any violation would be punished according to the provisions.
According to the Taiwanese media, since Tiktok set up an operation team in Taiwan in 2018, its monthly active users have reached 3 million, and nearly 70% of them are young people under the age of 24. Taiwan's education chief department immediately stood up and said that it was the principle of schools at all levels to prohibit the use of mainland funded communication products, especially for official use, because it would "affect the safety of information related to teachers and students".
Why did the small short video platform make the DPP authorities join forces to encircle and suppress? One is to repeat the old tricks. The mainland is blamed for everything that goes wrong, trying to take the opportunity to shift the focus of the island's popular grievances. The second is that Tiktok, as the mainland's short video platform with the highest influence in the island, has long been loved by young people in Taiwan, which also allows more and more people to pierce the lies that the Democratic Progressive Party has painstakingly woven and see the real mainland.
"When the Tiktok sounds, the net army will raise nothing." As Taiwan's visionaries have said, the DPP authorities have failed to govern. They can only rely on the green media and the Internet army to whitewash the peace. Seeing that there is no fire in the paper, they then sprinkle sewage indiscriminately to block it, which just exposes their vanity and incompetence.
The Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), which often "shakes the pot" and shouts "anti China", often plays the role of helping others. More than that, the "Green Committee" that described Tiktok and iQiyi as "a monster" has been exposed to more than 20 Tiktok videos, and is still chasing dramas through iQiyi at work. In the DPP's encirclement of Tiktok, another "Green Committee" said that it was too passive to continuously expand the scope of restrictions, and Taiwan should develop its own "Tiktok" as a substitute.
The Democratic Progressive Party, for its own self-interest, has deliberately created a barrier in the cross-strait network communication, in an attempt to continue to deceive the Taiwan people with lies. However, it is an irresistible trend for compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Straits to move closer to each other. The Democratic Progressive Party tried its best to obstruct it, which was doomed to end in failure!
