Please take some time out of your day to read  this.

The main reason I started this petition is simple—I, and many other annoyed and eager TikTokers, want TikTok and other social media platforms to go back to how it was before unnecessary, and worthless content houses like the "Hype House," ran by half-witted, undereducated teenagers who don't have enough skill to start a content house, were created. 

They have changed social media for the worse with their toxic fandoms and the horrible reputation behind them—racism, lack of diversity, bullying, stolen entertainment, cheating, abuse, manipulation and downright horrible content. Their "manager," Thomas Petrou, formerly worked as an editor for the notorious "Team 10" content house which share the same experience of bad treatment to it's members. But that's not the point. The point is that their members simply don't have the power to run a business, and we as social media users shouldn't support those corrupt ways. Before they were official, TikTok had amazing content from different creators—but now, they think that because they could do the same rhythmless dance moves five times, they run the app. Thomas also has a history of abusing former Hype House founder, Daisy Keech, which he made her feel as if she didn't belong there.

And it's bad when one member has a bad reputation, but it's even worse when many more have an equally as bad reputation. Chase Hudson, who goes by "Lil Huddy," has a past of saying the n-word, making jokes about it and made a horrible apology which his 12-year-old fans think were acceptable. He also has a history of cheating. Another Hype House member, Charli D'amelio, who is the most followed person on TikTok, stole a dance from lesser known creator, Jalaiah Harmon, horribly washed it down, and gave no credit; and that's how she got famous, stealing a dance from another creator. But that's not all: The last founders, Alex Warren and Kouvr Annon, have a shared history of manipulation, Dixie D'amelio, Charli's sister, is a proud Trump supporter, and their content house is so bad that they've had multiple videos, including a diss track from rival content house members, Josh Richards and Bryce Hall, shining light on all the bad things they've done in the span of five months. A lot of these members aren't even in their twenties yet and decided to drop out and pursue TikToking as a career.

But when you put all of those people with manipulative pasts in one content house, what happens? Scandals, a whole lot of backlash, and people speaking up about the things they've done. 

These are the reasons they should be removed from TikTok. By signing this petition, you agree to a) Share this as much as possible, and b) Get them to notice what they're doing, so they could change for the better, which is my second objective aside from getting them removed, it's more practical.

If you'd like to, you could chip in, but it's okay if you don't want to. Let's work together and get them off of social media—for good.
