  I'm not sure what side should I be on:
  Users of tiktok getting hurt or dying
  Or
  Creators getting hurt or dying because if there are no more creators, users will also not exist...
  Basically tiktok needs to go, either of the two ways above I don't mind
context: Holy shit, that first one. Awful. >
  
  Yeah, I shouldn't have clicked through, then googled. Made me cry. >
  
  Survival of the fittest my man. Nothing to cry about
  EDIT: Sorry, unless I misinterpreted and you were crying from laughing so hard. The Darwin Awards always gave me a good laugh
  Who's the idiot who thought he was doing a public service by quoting me in a reply to me and then blocking me lol >
  
  What is funny about dead children? >
  
  The snapchat post >
  
  Nearly five year old account and these two posts celebrating dead children are the only comments in its history.
  Since they probably delete their posts over time, for the record the user is u/EasyHeron and the comment was:

  Its pretty sad and completely unnecessary. I just don’t get why people would risk life and limbs just for a few upvotes / likes on social media >
  
  My friend died falling off a bluff but he wasn't filming a video be was just going surfing. >
  
  Falling off what? >
  
  Bluffs are the cliffs that lead down to a beach. >
  
  Thank you!! >
  
  He died doing what he loved to do. >
  
  He died hard for that >
  
  I'll say it again, Tiktok is all that is wrong with social media.
  It is the absolute abandonment of reasonable thought in order to portray yourself as a celebrity.
  EDIT:
  Yes it is the app and not the people. 
  If you dig a tunnel under a lake and tell people that glory is through the tunnel and halfway through crawling through the tunnel it collapses, you can't blame the people. >
  
  It's the people not the app >
  
  Really the only proper answer imho. 
  Instead of quitting social media, I post positive content that I hope lifts up those around me. It’s been well received by friends and family.
  Blaming everything on the Algorithm is being willfully ignorant. And I’m not trying to fully downplay the algorithm, because it is designed to keep us all at each others throats to an extent. Or at least foster disputes. 
  But we can rise above it. We can be good neighbors and positive members of our community. It is still a choice. 
  Believing anything less is essentially abdicating responsibility for a better society. >
  
  Contrary to some other social media, you can train the tiktok algorithm to cut the bullshit and show you things you want to see, which could be positive content only if you want. I opened reddit yesterday and the first post in my feed is a suicide note from what I presume to be a now dead person. >
  
  Yeah. Some subreddits I keep to stay a little informed or whatever, but I have shed a bunch that kind of made me more frustrated than I wanted to be.
  If all someone on Facebook does is share political memes or rant on politics I usually just unfollow them and they are still a friend, but my news feed is more positive. 
  Takes a bit of work and it isn’t a 100%, but it’s better. >
  
  ehat could make it theonion? why is it here? >
  
  Life \> Likes
  Damn… >
  
  How does this sound remotely like an Onion article title? >
  
  Ah, natural selection at work >
