Being somewhat in the know, I honestly don’t think it’s a propaganda tool for the CCP in it’s current form and making that claim unsubstantiated doesn’t help with credibility. What it is though is direct access to your devices as a spy tool and a massive machine learning data source that the CCP has unfettered access to. Every phone with the app installed is now a potential sensor.
It’s a lot of money don’t get me wrong but I kind of expected more. Some twitch streamers (mainly softcore porn streamers) get an absolute fuckload from some donors. Talking 50k+ from one person, they’re usually as a joke called oil princes
Hard to have sympathy for this woman, but these TikTok battles where they basically have influencers competing to see who can get their followers to donate more money to TikTok do seem pretty fucked up.

Fool = Easily parted money
You’d get more utility from lighting 25k on fire. What the fuck.
IIRC, it takes three generations to blow though an inheritance…
