Plenty of exploitation also happening of young men which has wide-ranging effects. This community seems to be mostly male (I’m guessing). Any opinions?

So what is wrong with it?
??? What’s wrong with exploitation?
Our entire socio ecomic system is built on exploitation, seems beyond weird to pearl clutch over parts of it sans some holistic introspection.
I agree with you but it’s scientific research in order to find out how this particular type of content affects people. We have to at least do what we can protect those who are vulnerable.
You can see how the big picture affects the particular but also how the particular affects the general. By changing and/or becoming more conscious of the particular we can become more alert to the wider world and make changes there too. Nothing is simple.
How is this an exploitation? People just watch what they want to watch; it’s their choice and they don’t harm anyone.
I don’t know if you’ve read the article. Adults can watch “what they want to watch” but the problem is that these videos can attract boys and young adults who are still maturing and the videos can have negative impacts on their self image and their life in general.
This can happen with any demographic group, old people being fed propaganda and sitting in their echo chambers or girls being told their worth is only their body etc… The problem is the algorithm and the money inventive. Also this isn’t only happening on tiktok but on all platforms.
