The fact that so many of the members of Congress who voted to ban TikTok turned around and bought Meta stock is so icky. It’s infuriating. It’s disgusting, and it’s going to radicalize a lot of people. They are killing people’s livelihood and businesses and they are going to reap a whirlwind. - ThreadSky

Delete all meta apps! And we all know this was about greed. Nothing more.

And we know what happens when people get radicalized.
A shit storm is coming.

Not that anyone will see this, but for inauguration day, I propose we all fly a black flag at half mast to protest Trump and honor Mr. Carter at the same time.

Just complete corruption. It’s like when my house gets super messy & I feel defeated wondering where even to start cleaning it up. This is how I feel about our government. Where do we even start to clean up this mess? Seems everyone we elect is after the connections & money and not public service.

Time to grab up the angry and frustrated Trump voters. We need to collect them, use their disappointment, and put them to work on a revolution! Many are TT addicted and are now pissed to learn that it was Trump who started the ban process. RedNote is FULL of them railing against government!

I doubt the Dumpster will ban TT. There's money in it for him.

If Musk buys it, it'll go in the toilette

Trump is responsible for instigating the ban in his first term. He called it a threat to national security. Now we see that him making money outweighs threats to national security! We need to let his TT voters hear the truth. You can't be the hero when you're the bad guy who pulled the trigger.

Went on IG yesterday and they have increased reels to 3 minutes. Coincidence?

Thats what dictators do! Control the media with missinformation

I have a feeling that Meta bought TT yesterday.

🤔 how can we tank meta?

And it's hilarious that the TikTok users turned around and went to the Chinese Tiktok instead of Facebook's crap. :)

If content creators could agree to go somewhere other than meta and Twitter for their relocation, we could hurt them. But so many content creators decided to cave to meta. For all the talk of fighting back, so many are weirdly okay just caving to the path of least resistance

Zuck probably bought them all a plane or something thinking we would all go crawling back to meta

It’s not about protecting a silly kids dancing app. TikTok took off during the pandemic. People changed the course of their lives using TikTok to start new businesses and projects. It is a massive part of American culture and economy.

TicTok also screwed with Trump's rallies, making them think there were more wanting to join his club
It's going to cost them because Trump has a long memory
But they have an Invite to the coronation so there is hope for a more trumpian set of rules on posting
