TikTok

TikTok, known in China as Douyin, is a video-sharing social website owned by Chinese company ByteDance. The social media platform is used to make a variety of short-form videos, from genres like dance, comedy, and education, that have a duration from 15 seconds to one minute (three minutes for some users).TikTok is an international version of Douyin, which was originally released in the Chinese market in September 2016. Later, TikTok was launched in 2017 for iOS and Android in most markets outside of mainland china; however, it only became available worldwide after merging with another Chinese social media service, Musical.ly, on 2 August 2018, oddly enough, in the same year it was hated and spit on for a plenty of reasons.

Why it is overhated

 * 1) You already know, the Cringe excuse, like usual.
 * 2) they "hate" this app because of teenagers dancing in synchrony to the song, yup, it's all your fault for searching up TikTok you ignorant prick.
 * 3) the hate have gotten so bad that they hate teenagers just because they use TikTok.
 * 4) they wish for this app to not exist, if They think TikTok should never exist then why didn't they said the same thing to Musical.ly?
 * 5) Hypocrites: they state that TikTok users (Or in other words: TikTokers) are Toxic, annoying and unreasonable, yet they won't shut the hell up about not just about TikTok, but them as well in a non stop way, and also, they think all tiktoks are not good, and yet they enjoy some tiktoks that became viral.
 * 6) they make a lot of cringe compilations and hate memes.
 * 7) since this app was launched, people on twitter kept making threads of "cringy" videos, yeah, of course, posted on TikTok, proof is here.
 * 8) BE CAREFUL: if you dare use TikTok, loads of people will go after you to put your sorry butt on a thread just to make fun of you or worse, they will send death threats to you simply because you use that app.
 * 9) They got the guts to call it gay, it reminds you about something, doesn’t it?
 * 10) They think that TikTok Ruined their favorite song, are you serious right now? how can a video-sharing website ruin a song? It’s like saying that YouTube ruined a song or whatever.
 * 11) they don’t just hate it, they treat it like it was a spawn from Satan.
 * 12) Most of them are former viners and keep bashing this app for a bunch of petty reasons.
 * 13) They get butthurt just because their family members, teachers and their close friends use TikTok, even if it was for entertainment purposes.
 * 14) They shame everyone who use TikTok.
 * 15) Even in music video, they say "don't let this become a TikTok trend", doesn't it annoy you?
 * 16) They even think that "TikTok is a spying tool that is stealing your personal information", Do they even have proof to make things clear?
 * 17) this comment section!
 * 18) it gotten so bad that Donald Trump tried to ban it due to these people's lies.
 * 19) Ray William Johnson is infamously known within this move, there’s examples such as this video depicting himself as an airplane driver crashing a plane... OVER A DANCE of course.
 * 20) They ignore the good qualities of TikTok.
 * 21) This video in which shows the storyteller’s father disowning her all because of TikTok and yet the comment section from that said video approved of his nefariousness, even though disowning a child over petty reasons is wrong.

Why the hate can be justified over certain circumstances

 * 1) They might have a point that TikTok might be a bad website or app.
 * 2) There might be some TikToks that might be painful to look at (such as some "attractive" girls dancing in the synchrony of the song for example).
 * 3) Some TikToks might probably be kind of controversial for example a Gen Z Tattoo might resamble a nazi flag (But that doesn't cut the fact that Every Website might probably have some bad eggs).
