TikTok bans ‘parallel economy’ advertiser

A conservative-owned firm which connects consumers with pro-America companies reported that it has been banned and had its funding seized by Chinese owned TikTok.

Mammoth Nation was kicked off the social media platform for alleged suspicious activity, a move the company’s spokesperson said reeks of “conservative censorship.”

TikTok had reportedly pre-approved an advertisement from Mammoth Nation, but quickly turned around and flagged it as “suspicious activity,” claiming the ad was selling ammunition.

National spokesperson for Mammoth Nation Drew Berquist denied those claims on Fox News’ “Fox & Friends First” Thursday, saying TikTok then proceeded to press the company for advertising funding to keep it running on the platform.

“They paused it, and they said, ‘Hey, we’re shutting this down. You need to now pre-load your account if you want to do this,’ which we did, we complied,” Berquist told Fox News. “We went along with everything they were asking of us, got things back up and running, and then they just straight up shut the account down in yet another blatant move of conservative censorship.”
