The damage is already done with the tiktok userbase. It doesn't matter whether he does or does not enforce it.
It only takes 1-2 weeks to lose control of the narrative, and once the narrative is set it's nearly impossible to change it. Just like Palestine, they lost control of the narrative and could never fix it.
This narrative is set. They've lost it. They can't undo what has been done this week with those that have been part of it.
I wouldn't be so hasty with that. I could totally see the tiktokers going back to tiktok. I say this because rednote isn't really a tiktok substitute, it's more of a chinese instagram. If the tiktokers went to douyin that would be different.
Going back to tiktok doesn't matter. They've all made their minds up.
Going back to tiktok doesn't change the fact that they've now decided not to be anti-china and that everything they previously knew about china was propaganda. Going forwards they will not swallow anti-china propaganda easily at all.
The damage is done. You can't double or triple deprogram them. People sticking around in the longterm just means sucking more people in and deprogramming them too, that's the reason they'd ban it, to stop it happening to even more people, but for those already involved in this the US has already lost.
