Idk man. I don't use TikTok and probably never will, but I don't think it's unreasonable to expect people to be able to segregate their entertainment from their intellect.
I'm surprised people downvote that idea. Part of the issue was the hordes of people of... lower intellect flooding into public forums to begin with. Segmenting them out into their own little zoo seems ideal to filter the noise out more effectively.
I meant that it should be possible to appreciate harmlessly stupid or silly/vapid humour without it degrading your ability to also reason critically about serious stuff.
