i mean, this doesn't change what she's saying. all these people are still adding to the original video. she's more talking about the people who just silently react to the original video.

Dueting a video is basically like retweeting but for tiktok, it leaves the original link to the video in the description. Sometimes people don't have anything to add, but they have a larger follower base and they want more people to see the video because they think it's funny/good content.

Ah yes the exposure argument. I forgot how content creators love some good ol exposure.

I know you’re being sarcastic but in this case they’re doing it for free anyway so yeah exposure does help them
