“The only e-girl that matters is the earth.” How teens are using humor on TikTok to meme the news.
In the 15-second TikTok, Namazi danced in front of news articles reporting that there was support for an impeachment inquiry as a deafening version of Celine Dion’s “My Heart Will Go On” played poorly on a recorder.
“In terms of the barriers to entry that TikTok has, it’s virtually none. As long as you have a device that is accessible to the web, that has a camera, that has a microphone, you can produce this very simple content,” Tilton said. “It’s a way of getting a message out to a larger audience.”That also holds true when young people decide on a whim to make a video about current events, like Sofi Mandil, 20, who said she has only been on TikTok for about a month.
In her TikTok, Mandil missed the jar while making a dozen statements like, “We should have more guns,” and “Reverse racism is real.” The only time her throw landed in the jar is when she said, “The American education system is broken.”
