Not only of TikTok itself, but also filter bubbles. Most people didn't even know about this guy until election night. Absolutely insane.

In a matter of months he fooled more than 2 millions of my countrymen to vote for him. Absolutely insane. Nobody was expecting this. I am absolutely _terrified_ of the future.
