I mostly agree with this well written analysis, except for one minor point. TikTok is now the most used social media app in the world and it’s reach extends far beyond teenagers. Working middle class people are definitely on TikTok. To say whether or not an influencer can persuade them is debatable. However, I do agree that those influencers who were invited to the White House are not likely to push back or question the administration and that it’s ridiculous to think they didn’t know about Jankowicz’s social media accounts.

First of all, people who dance on TikTok are not necessarily lacking in intelligence. Sometimes TikTok’ers dance to enjoy themselves in a world filled with chaos, depression, and turmoil. And sometimes they are just being silly and having fun!
