What in the actual fuck.

meg122t.bsky.social•166 days ago

This is disgusting.

quispamsissy.bsky.social•166 days ago

Another app to delete

eurotrader.bsky.social•166 days ago

It would work out if Elon is declared a national security risk(see why he was denied higher level security clearance) and SpaceX, starlink, twit and tiktok could be nationalized and control taken away in a single act.

lincolnmcallen.bsky.social•166 days ago

Straight to Musk

thewind94.bsky.social•166 days ago

Disgusting! He'll ruin TikTok like he ruined Twitter! Smh

annac64.bsky.social•166 days ago

If Musk ends up with TikTok, it will become just as useless as Twitter before too long.

di-caverna.bsky.social•166 days ago

They sure can entrust tiktok to Musk, the corruption of western youth would proceed as planned without the risk of shut down.

dives2little.bsky.social•166 days ago

Buy Tik-Tok now so that you can sell it at a loss after Musk takes it over.

d-a-d.bsky.social•165 days ago

It's not like it would be creating another monopoly, no?

Murk Suckerborg won't like that, though. And that is good news.

They might as well ban it.

swirlytwirlymom.bsky.social•166 days ago

I read that this wasn’t true.

celya723.bsky.social•166 days ago

More like "China sells app to naturalized citizen as a potential weapon", cuz misinformation is what he uses social media for 🙄

publius777.bsky.social•166 days ago

It's sooooo funny watching all you leftists melt down now that the conservatives own all the levers of power you used to own...

Somehow when you had power it was OK but now everyone is gonna die...

This is gonna be a fun 12 years...

the-fishing-guy.bsky.social•166 days ago

elon is an asset of the CCP. His involvement in the US government is a threat to national security.

blueskyredhawk.bsky.social•166 days ago

Oh for FUCK'S sake. Of course

askwhyusa.bsky.social•166 days ago

Where is 007 when we need him?

christopherloza.bsky.social•166 days ago

This is definitely the sort of move the DOJ would challenge. Oh wait. Never mind. I'm thinking about regard for laws. I'm being silly.

martinkoenigsberg.bsky.social•166 days ago

Actually - maybe the best way to get everyone off it...
#BoycottTesla

fungibev.bsky.social•166 days ago

I’ll be out of there pronto!

shellie9.bsky.social•166 days ago

Where does he get the money this time?

katswhiskey.bsky.social•166 days ago

This isn't going to happen.

freelance616.bsky.social•166 days ago

Nooooooo TikTok is my escape from the village of idiots maga has turned twitter into.

rickv5775.bsky.social•165 days ago

He buys Tik Tok, and I am out.

itsmissyvonne.bsky.social•166 days ago

Hopefully our anti-monopoly legislation will prevent that.

kate6.bsky.social•166 days ago

(1) China doesn't own TikTok (2) There's already a mass exodus from Twitter to Bluesky and a mass exodus from TikTok to RedNote, might as well let ByteDance take Elon's money... Any other dead tech he'd like to buy? VHS tapes maybe?

bubbi1234.bsky.social•166 days ago

TikTok in Musk Hands

kurtwhittet.bsky.social•166 days ago

Musk owning Tik Tok is much worse than China owning it - leave it with China

santorinidreaming.bsky.social•165 days ago

It’s a hell of a lot better for what’s left of America for China to keep control of TikTok instead of placing it in the hands of #Muskputin

woodenstares.bsky.social•166 days ago

This couldn’t have happened without the democrat’s help.

narcberry.bsky.social•166 days ago

TikTok, in order to not share data with the CCP, has the CCP's permission to be sold to Elon Musk, who has data-sharing contracts with the CCP.

akremer.bsky.social•166 days ago

*lol* 🤪 💩

luorirongjin.bsky.social•166 days ago

I would be thrilled to see what those die-hard TikTok supporters would say?

Go to Chinese Weibo this time?

therealsamael.bsky.social•165 days ago

It's blatantly obvious what these lunatics are trying to do. People better smarten up.

birddroneone.bsky.social•166 days ago

This whole story is made up. ByteDance has denied it.

weshlovrcm.bsky.social•166 days ago

Another huge, biased theofascist propaganda site which will silence the Left.

classymover.bsky.social•166 days ago

Let him buy it. He'll ruin it and some innovators can start something new - like BlueSky!

womanofinspiration.bsky.social•166 days ago

This is so not a good idea! If this goes through, Musk will have an outside monopoly over our country

sistheresaruth.bsky.social•166 days ago

He could barely pay for Twitter without the help of foreign investors.

oneveteransoath.substack.com•166 days ago

And the same guy who routinely had contact with Putin as well in violation of his security clearance.

yesfan1.bsky.social•165 days ago

Again - Shouldn't the FTC be involved???

rococo-reinette.bsky.social•166 days ago

Wow. This is chilling. Shit just keeps getting more ominous. We're cooked.

jddbluesky.bsky.social•166 days ago

I get the point but better Musk than the Chinese government.

deannakell.bsky.social•166 days ago

“China” doesn’t own TikTok.

lisadhk.bsky.social•166 days ago

Nooooooo

queenpacu.bsky.social•166 days ago

Of course

pedrovcr.bsky.social•165 days ago

The US needs rare earths for technology and China has them. Musk could ease tensions between China and the US. And this is key to understanding the tensions and distensions in China-US relations.

oneshotrecords.bsky.social•166 days ago

I do hope I’m not quantum manifesting this.

oneshotrecords.bsky.social•166 days ago

sirgibby.bsky.social•166 days ago

I swear this guy is legit trying to take over the world! #MuskisaBondVillian

lockey13.bsky.social•166 days ago

Makes sense to me - China is always looking for ways to create havoc in and to America, this is a sure fired way to do just that
