TikTok Is Cringey and That’s Fine

Over the past several months, TikTok videos have begun to go viral(进入狂野的状态) beyond the platform, racking up millions of views(浏览量) on Twitter and Instagram. They’re easy to identify once you’ve seen a couple(几个): 15-to-60-second-long clips set to music; often featuring(v,以什么为特征) someone lip-synching(对口型), dancing, or doing a trick; And the edits are fast: Watching too many in a row can feel like you’re about to have a brain freeze. They’re incredibly addictive.

The category most people on the broader(更广泛的) internet use to describe TikTok is “cringe”: It’s so painful and embarrassing that a viewer can’t help but laugh. There are endless TikTok cringe compilations on YouTube, many with millions of views. Earlier this month, a thread of “cringey” TikTok videos went viral on Twitter. In one video,  a man wearing a Walmart vest(背心) dances emphatically to Rihanna’s “S&M” in front of a Confederate flag(美利坚邦联的国旗) in his bedroom.

Because the app merged with Musical.ly, which most people associated with children, there’s a prevailing(流行的) notion(观念、看法) that adults who make content on TikTok are creepy and weird. “To be a grown(成年人,含讽刺意味) adult doing a cute karaoke video on an app and trying to make it go viral is odd behavior, ” said a popular Instagram memer, Jack Wagner.

But most adults using the app aren’t trying to go viral: They’re making TikTok videos because it’s fun.  In a world where everyone’s content inevitably(必将) begins to look the same, TikTok videos feel bizarre(奇异的,怪异的) and new. It’s an app full of people posting strange content to the internet with zero self-awareness or shame(毫无羞耻之心). That’s easy to mock(嘲笑), but it’s also what may lead to TikTok’s success.
