Before I follow someone on TikTok, I run a purity test to ensure they aren't problematic to my standards

Sees TikTok account that I want to follow

1. Checks their reposts and video posts on the following dates:

   Problematic dates can often be found in: September 2025 (K*rk), February 2025 (The Queen winning AOTY), November 2024 (election), and July 2024 (Trump's ear). Now some people (re)post WAY too often so I'm not scrolling that far and I'll move onto the next test.

2. Checks their Instagram following. Do they follow anyone with the last name Trump? Fox News? End Woke accounts? Musk? Jordan Peterson? And the most common one… Joe Rogan? I have given a pass for Rogan followers if I don't see anything else fishy and they're extremely hot.

3. If my ancestors tell me that something is still off after passing the first 2 tests, I run the 3rd test: voterrecordsDOTcom. If they live in a state with public voter registration this test will expose it all! I almost followed a Republican from Florida yesterday until I checked!

Would you pass my social media purity test?

And before you freaks come out of the woodwork calling me chronically online or too woke or weird my answer to that is:

I refuse to support problematic creators unlike you desperate hxes. Stay pressed! Each test takes 60 seconds. Y'all spend more time arguing streaming numbers on atrl DOT com—Freaks!

I don't have or use social media at all, personally.

jokes on you cause I only use ATRL now, what kind of background check can I run before replying to someone here

Atrl is easy! Simply click their account and check their activity. What posts are they downvoting? What posts are they upvoting? What threads are they most active in? Nicki Minaj base? Cancelled!

i'm not dating Kristin Chenoweth so no, not really

i have a job and social life

I won't judge you for being extra thorough, but I personally operate on an innocent until proven guilty approach. My interests and algorithms are pretty self-selecting already, it's rare that someone falls through the cracks.

I already feel I waste too much time on social media, running an exhaustive vetting process for every creator I want to interact with feels like a horrible cost/benefit. At the end of the day, your handful of views doesn't make a difference to their bottom line, but scouring their entire online footprint DOES waste a pretty good chunk of precious time.

ok

Honestly I don't care a lot about that, at least here in my country that doesn't really matters.

I would say people here care more about which soccer team you are than something related to social problems.

If I like their video I will literally follow them.

I fear this is social media

It's a little different though because I never have to see anyone's face, hear anyone's voice, or find y'all IRL (and some people here I'd be genuinely scared to run into IRL anyway)

I don't have one, I follow and if they end up posting dumb **** then I unfollow but I don't have time to go through their likes and ****

I'll follow anyone who has a fat wallet, has good vitamin D and loves to eat cakes.

You sounds crazy as hell

I've never used Tik Tok and I quit using everything else so that I don't have to worry about the blatant ignorance and buffoonery that happens online. This forum is my Only Exception™️

I always check to see if people I just start following already follow Trump

I just know your coworkers hate you

I wouldn't say I run tests, but I know who to pay dust.

I search the word "homophobic" in their LPSG thread. If there's a match, I start following them

They definitely do but for other reasons.

I only follow problematic people.
