YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Lawmakers once again grilled Big Tech executives in a congressional hearing that was supposed to be focused on the issue of child safety, but was instead, predictably, used as the latest front in the New Cold War against China. CEO of TikTok Shou Zi Chew once again faced ignorant and McCarthyite questions, including from Senator Tom Cotton who asked Chew, who is Singaporean, if he had ever been a member of the Chinese Communist Party.’ Amanda Yee, a journalist and the Managing Editor of Liberation News, discusses how the hearing fits into the escalating US war drive against China and the broader far-right agenda.
