TikTok sucks
I started a TikTok account dedicated to figure skating a couple of months ago because I thought it would be really fun to do, and it was for a time, but recently it’s just been really weighing on me. People on TikTok can be really mean if you share a different opinion than them, which I expected when I started the account and honestly was looking forward to a little bit because I like discourse and I like having debates with people over subjects I’m passionate about, but recently idk it’s just felt really depressing and disheartening and I’m not really getting the same enjoyment out of it anymore. I’ve been accused of being racist and misogynistic honestly for no reason at all and it’s really frustrating cuz I know I’m not those things and these people would know that if they knew me but it’s hard not to take things to heart sometimes. I know this is just the nature of social media in general, but it really irks me how people who have never met me in my life make assumptions about me based on an account on the internet. And maybe you’re thinking ok well stop making videos then, but I don’t want to cuz I DO like this TikTok account it’s just hard to deal with people talking baseless crap about you just cuz you like different skaters than them. Sorry, just a little rant lmao cuz this account is making me want to cry.
