“A Beautiful Chorus” ⁠— Leftists Are Using TikTok To Break Down Socialism For The Next Generation Of Voters

King said that there’s already a diverse set of leftist creators on the platform who are drawing people into leftist politics through memes and trends, and others who’ve broken down the concepts further in explainer videos that have also influenced his content.

“There’s not necessarily a feedback loop between all of us, but there are creators all across the platform who have different lived experiences or perspectives,” King explained. “They’re hitting notes that I might not be able to hit. It becomes a beautiful chorus of perspectives. So we have this edgy guy in the corner, there’s that person who’s breaking down the concepts, there’s another person talking about the experiences of minority groups, and then badabing! Badaboom! We’ve got ourselves a leftist coalition.”
