Here's why I post like that. People who don't use TikTok see comments like the parent and think that's all TikTok is. So then they assume that everyone who uses TikTok must be into that stuff, because that's what they're there to watch. Non-titktok users seemingly do not understand how wildly variable the experience is person to person. It's not about blaming the poster, but about bringing perspective that we're not all just there happily watching live streams like what the poster described.
