Singaporean TikTok CEO Faces Ugly McCarthyism Smear from US Senator

Singaporeans express outrage and disbelief after a US senator's questioning of TikTok CEO Shou Chew's nationality and alleged ties to the Chinese Communist Party during a congressional hearing, with many deeming the line of questioning as ignorant and racist. The senator's remarks have sparked criticism and mockery on social media, with many Singaporeans emphasizing their distinct cultural identity from China. The senator's claims about Singapore's alleged infiltration and influence by the Chinese Communist Party have been met with confusion and skepticism, as Chew, a native of Singapore, has no known affiliations with the party.
