I don't love Facebook, but I'm not sure I understand the comparison. The objection here is that TikTok is operated by a Chinese company. Meta is a domestic company.

I was under the impression muscles grow more when pushed close to failure, so why wouldn't you want to do that in the low weight/high rep sets?
Responding to this specifically - this generally seems to be true according to research for hypertrophy, but it's worth noting that GZCLP is a powerlifting program, not a bodybuilding program, so the emphasis is on strength, not size. The T2s are there to support your strength on the T1 movements. If you want to build size too you can treat GZCLP like a "powerbuilding" program by pushing the T3 movements, which are more appropriate for hypertrophy work.
Also, if you haven't it's worth reading Cody's original posts on the GZCL method for more of the context. He even addresses your specific question, where he says AMRAPs are okay on T2s but to use caution:
Options to push T2 effort during the cycle would be to include AMRAP sets, as shown with the Week 4 example, or limit rest. Be aware that over use of T2 AMRAPS is likely to cause a decline in T1 ability later that week if recovery is an issue. This is especially true if the T1 is also utilizing AMRAP sets.
It would be the ultimate irony if this article was, itself, generated by AI. Based on the article's "voice", I doubt it is, but in this brave new world...one must always wonder.
If stopping Arabic-looking people stopped actual terrorist attacks, would it be worth it?
Yeah, and they should totally be stopping people in turbans to prevent terrorism! Who cares if a few people are offended if it means saving lives, right?
This is a bad take. There are so many mixed race families in the world. It is not okay to start harassing all of them just because they might be doing something wrong. It's literally just racism no matter how you try to dress it up.
