The House on Wednesday passed a bill with broad bipartisan support that would force TikTok’s Chinese owner to either sell the hugely popular video app or be banned in the United States.

Republican leaders fast-tracked the bill through the House with limited debate, and it passed on a lopsided vote of 352-65, reflecting widespread backing for legislation that would take direct aim at China in an election year.

    People like that complain about the lack of free speech, then in the same breath praise China, a country that will literally disappear you if you step out of line.

      In my personal experience I haven’t really heard or seen Americans from any common viewpoint praising China, but maybe I’m just in a fortunate bubble.
