It is not the first time that Kanye West makes statements about where different platforms should go and, much less, It is not the first time that he has caused a stir with a strange publication on his social networks.
And it is that the American rapper has more than 30 million followers on his Twitter profile, where a few hours ago he published two tweets in which he “prays” to be able to collaborate with TikTok and make a Christian version of the fashion application.

“I absolutely love TikTok technology”
In the first of the tweets (written entirely in capital letters), Kanye claims to have had “a vision”. He adds that he was watching TikTok with his daughter and, “as a Christian father he was disturbed by the content.”
A VISION JUST CAME TO ME … JESUS TOK I WAS WATCHING TIK TOK WITH MY DAUGHTER AND AS A CHRISTIAN FATHER I WAS DISTURBED BY A LOT OF THE CONTENT BUT I COMPLETELY LOVED THE TECHNOLOGY

Of course, Kanye assures that he “completely loves the technology” of the platform, and that is why proposes the creation of “JesusTok”. West offers to collaborate with TikTok to create that Christian version that “feels safe for the kids and the world.”
WE PRAY WE CAN COLLABORATE WITH TIK TOK TO MAKE A CHRISTIAN MONITORED VERSION THAT FEELS SAFE FOR YOUNG CHILDREN AND THE WORLD IN JESUS NAME AMEN

For those who do not follow the career and the unexpected twists of West’s life, in recent times he has emerged as an artist overturned in his spirituality and obsessed with carrying the word of Jesus with the vast majority of his actions.
Last July, he announced his candidacy for the US Presidency., and will appear on the ballot papers of the state of Utah, Oklahoma and Colorado. West announced that he no longer supported Donald Trump, whom he had fervently defended and with whom he met in a controversial meeting that took place four years ago.
We do not know if dreams of creating a Christian TikTok, whatever that is, will come true. What is up in the air is the future of the social network of the moment. Trump’s sanctions have accelerated the sale of assets by Bytedance and Microsoft has already announced its intentions to take over part of the TikTok business.
Not the only interested company, and Oracle Corporation (according to CNBC, citing sources close to the platform) would also be interested in taking over TikTok’s operations in the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.
Some estimates assure that the purchase figure of these operations could be around from 10,000 to 50,000 million dollars. We will have to wait to see which company finally ends up taking them.
