TikTok is a video hosting platform that allows its users to post clips up to 10 minutes long. And with so many of them using the app each month, you bet your feed there's a lot of, let's call it, questionable content.

Which is what the Twitter account 'Wild TikTok screenshots' is all about. It shares follower-submitted stills from the social network that vividly illustrates just how chaotic it really is.

Continue scrolling to check out the ridiculousness and when you're done, open up our first publication on 'Wild TikTok screenshots' if you want more of the same.

More info: Twitter

TikTok took only 5 years to reach the 1-billion monthly active user mark, a shorter period of time than many of its competitors. 

For comparison, Facebook did it in 2012. That's eight years after its launch in 2004.

Instagram reached the same number in 2018, also eight years after launching in 2010.

Never understood people's hatred of the devil, apparently he literally punishes bad people so wouldn't that make him good? Why all the hate? Logic truly counts for nothing when it comes to religion.

From a Christian standpoint, The devil doesn’t punish the bad people. He actually enables them and encourages them to do more evil things. God is the one who punishes them and the devil. The devil is not the ‘king of hell’ as many Christians think.

It kinda makes sense, because without the Devil, the church would have no reason to exist :P

I studied religion at the uni and.... the Christian relationship with the Devil has always been weird. When I wrote a paper about witch hunts and the Maleus Malleficarum it was so two-sided because the ppl accused were seen as evil because they were said to worship the Devil but then it was also always made clear that the Devil had no autonomy so God had to allow the Devil to "seduce" the witches and so God would also choose which humans should be allowed to be the Devil's worshippers. I was (and still am) very confused by this all. God is good AND he allows for the Devil to do bad stuff BUT it's only the Devil who's a bad guy because God is 100% good. 🤯

This is "The problem of Evil" in a nutshell. You and I aren't going to solve it. The Devil (or Lucifer, Satan, Shaitan, etc.) was called "The Antagonist" in the Torah. The horns, hooves and pitchfork were added later. It's a mythological creature, no more real than Hades and Persephone.

I suspect the devil part had nothing to do with it. It's that so many churches hate the thought of anybody f*****g anybody.

Attended a church service with a group of disabled people. One of them had Tourette's Syndrome. For me, the atheist, I had a hellava time. Need I say more?

The book of Jude. When Micheal the archangel wrestled with the devil instead of railing against him merely said, The Lord Rebuke You. People have a right to believe whatever you wish. But in this time of "demanding respect", please respect my belief as a Christian.

Your right to believe should be respected. No belief automatically deserves respect. Some people believe there was a child sex trafficking ring being run out of a pizza joint's basement. Some people believe that entire religions should be erased from existence by force and have attempted to do so. I would hope you don't respect those beliefs.

Hating someone or something is putting entirely too much energy into them. The bible, God's word, doesn't say to hate him. Be wary of him, allow no part of your life to come under his scrutiny. Read "The Screwtape Letter's" by C. S. Lewis. It opened my eyes

Maybe it was because of your completely inappropriate & disrespectful outburst? I'm sure you thought you were being funny. You weren't - you were being an a$$hole.

He has a point though- Also, what church actually kicks someone out? (I might get down votes for this but I was never taught anything about other religions except that they were wrong)

The devil is just the way the folks who came up with all this nonsense attempted to answer for the problem of evil. If God is all good and can do no wrong, then there has to be a second "evil God" to be responsible for all the F*ed up s**t humans do.

Well, the devil is that creature of low character who preys on my weaknesses and leads me into temptation and selfish self-indulgence. I know that he actually exists. That is because he appears right in front of me every day. (Unless I don't shave.)

But TikTok’s success hasn’t been without difficulty.

The company was threatened with a ban from the Trump administration last year, citing security and data concerns, which would have pushed the app into American ownership. But President Biden abandoned these plans.

Security concerns, however, persist. For example, last week, Forbes published an article accusing TikTok of ambitions to monitor the personal location of some specific American citizens.

The text also said that its unclear whether any data was actually collected. But TikTok hit back in a series of tweets claiming that the article lacks both rigor and journalistic integrity.

TikTok said Forbes “chose not to include the portion of our statement that disproved the feasibility of its core allegation: TikTok does not collect precise GPS location information from US users, meaning TikTok could not monitor US users in the way the article suggested.”

Why should they want to stop in the first place? It's a natural thing, just don't wipe the results in a sock and hide it under the bed ;)

Meanwhile, a Forbes spokesperson said: “We are confident in our sourcing, and we stand by our reporting.”

John Paczkowski, executive editor of technology and innovation at Forbes, added that TikTok and its parent company, ByteDance, “have not denied any of the claims in the story.”

Dreams are 100% true. Like as a child I dreamt Frankenstein's monster walked into my bedroom looking for me. That really did happen the next day. Honest.

Its algorithm, which makes it easy to consume videos, has also been blamed for amplifying misinformation and other harmful content.

The US government is currently negotiating with ByteDance over concerns about national security and the safety of Americans' personal data on foreign servers. And there are ongoing concerns about the mental health harms the app may pose to teenagers and young people.

Because parental death is such a small thing these days. I mean, get over yourself? Roll the body under the table so it is not a trip hazard and get on with your life, supporting your egocentric friends.

But its users seem to be happy with the app. At least for now. So TikTok continues to grow in influence.

In fact, there's a new survey from Pew Research Center that asked American adults from a range of age groups about which social media sites they get their news from, and TikTok and Instagram were the only platforms that have increased since 2020, while other sites included in the survey — Twitter, Facebook, Reddit, YouTube, Snapchat, LinkedIn, Twitch, and WhatsApp — have all decreased.

Unpopular opinion but I agree. Doesn’t excuse them from being annoying pests though.
