A solar flare would solve lots of things besides TikTok.
It would cause many problems too, but I’m not sure they’re worse than the problems we have now.

You judge if that’s worse.

Start from oldest, poorest, and medically needy, then work your way up the financial ladder. The rich will hide in their bunkers.
