Communist China’s Electoral Interference: Tik Tok By Chris Knight (Florida)
It is a double-whammy, with communist China having a major influence, not only on the US elections, but potentially across the West. As observed by cartoonist Scott Adams, the Chinese TikTok platform has a major impact upon unmarried women, a rising demographic, and young people, and it promotes liberal Left values. But, aside from that, the Democrats capitalised on the rising Zoomer vote, those aged 18 to 29 years, who are eager to have their student debt, for their fArts degrees cancelled. This demographic is highly sympathetic to socialism, and the same sentiment is found across jurisdictions, including Australia. While young people eventually grow out of socialism, a lot of damage can be done while they work out their minds. It will be a bumpy road ahead.
“Scott Adams, the Dilbert cartoonist also known for his second career as a political pundit, argued Wednesday that a big factor in Democrats’ strong performance in the midterm election was the TikTok platform — which is owned by China.
Adams first noted that while Republicans won among men, and also among married women, Democrats won by a massive margin among unmarried women. He retweeted Brad Wilcox, director of the National Marriage Project
Adams added his own tweet, noting the majority of TikTok uses are women and urging politicians to “connect the dots”:
In his broadcast Wednesday on Locals.com and YouTube, Adams explained his point in greater detail. “The group of Americans that controlled the election outcome are the group of Americans that China controls through TikTok,” he said.
Noting that Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) had contributed to the fervor around abortion by proposing a national ban after 15 weeks, Adams added:
“Allowing TikTok, a Chinese company … to be the primary channel for the most important group of voters in the United States. Do you see any problem there?”
He noted that despite former President Donald Trump’s failed effort to rein in TikTok, Democrats would allow TikTok to remain legal in the U.S. because China’s interests in disrupting U.S. politics served their own domestic political agenda.
In 2020, a group of left-wing activists used TikTok to spoof attendees at a Trump rally, hurting attendance for the event. The Biden White House and the Democratic Party have often used TikTok influencers in efforts to shift public opinion.”

“If President Joe Biden didn't enact broad student-loan forgiveness, Republicans may have gotten the electoral wins they were hoping for.
Gen Z may have helped.
Leading up to the midterm elections, the polls were predicting massive GOP victories across the board, allowing them to regain significant control over the House and Senate. But as the results continue to trickle in, it's become clear that the red wave turned into a ripple, with control of both chambers of Congress too close to call the day after the election.
While it's difficult to pinpoint what exactly may have caused this shift, opinions of young voters should be taken into consideration. According to the Edison Research National Election Pool exit poll, 63% of voters aged 18-29 supported Democrats, and 89% of Black youth and 68% of Latino youth voted for a Democratic House candidate. With the oldest Gen Zers turning 25 this year, this group includes the youngest Millennials and those Zoomers of voting age.
"The role of young people in this election cannot be understated. Turnout delivered on many of these races," New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez wrote on Twitter.
"By 2024, Millennials & Gen Z voters will outnumber voters who are Baby Boomers and older, 45/25," she added. "We are beginning to see the political impacts of that generational shift."
Major issues like reproductive rights, climate change, and student-loan forgiveness likely helped with that turnout. John Della Volpe, director of polling at the Harvard Kennedy School Institute of Politics, wrote on Twitter that "if not for voters under 30 ... tonight WOULD have been a Red Wave," and he referred to Biden's policies on the climate and student debt that he argued helped Democrats win votes.
Student-loan forgiveness is currently paused due to a ruling from the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals, in response to a lawsuit filed by six Republican-led states seeking to halt the debt relief. But Biden's August announcement of up to $20,000 in relief for federal borrowers making under $125,000 a year was a long-awaited policy that the president pledged to fulfill on the campaign trail, and one that consistently polled well among young voters. A poll from Morning Consult last year, for example, found millennial voters are most likely to support student-debt cancellation among all Americans.”
