Hey @rachelzegler , we’ve noticed there’s been a lot of talk around @tiktok and it’s blocking of the #blacklivesmatter and #GeorgeFloyd hashtag, so we decided to look into it...
It’s always best to go to the root of the problem. We went over to @tiktok and decided to take a look. Here’s a video of us making a Tik Tok. The hashtag alongside the view count is listed.”
Another twitter user shared a screenshot that had the views for these hashtags at 0, which isn’t the case.
We also did a quick Twitter search on this situation and @TaylorLorenz popped up. Taylor recently reached out to @tiktok and discovered the issue is not factual.
Although information may seem true in the moment, it’s important to take a step back and ask yourself #isthislegit . Utilize your resources to fact-check everything you see on social media right now.
