Comparing Twitter back when the "Arab Spring" occurred to TikTok feels somewhat unfair, in that the former was often a pathway for journalists and human rights activists, an the latter is a CCP propaganda outlet.

I'd also point out that the Arab Spring was a total failure, leading to nothing more or less than disruption, death, and either a return to the status quo ante, or something even worse.
