While Donald Trump is threatening to ban TikTok in the United States, Kanye West plans to develop a Christian version of the app called Jesus Tok. The rapper wrote about this in his Twitter.
“I had a vision. Jesus Tok. I watched the video on TikTok with my daughter, and much of the content bothered me a lot as a Christian and a father. However, I just fell in love with the technology itself, “Kanye wrote.
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

West added that he very much hopes to collaborate with TikTok to create a new version of the application where children and the whole world will feel safe.
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
