Bear with me I need to bitch about the TikTok ban. I genuinely think that while the CEO of TikTok was originally on our side, he got offered a deal he couldn’t refuse. Our freedom of speech, in exchange for a seat at the world’s largest oligarchy table. - ThreadSky

If that’s the case we should all delete our accounts and make that shit go bankrupt. Is it gonna be worth it to stay at that point? The CEO is a spineless pos

Honestly no! The only reason I will hold off is to keep an eye on where everyone goes so I can find them bc I follow a LOT of activists and disability activists who don’t have many other platforms. Once they move, IM GONE

He was literally at the bastards inauguration. He’s now brazenly praising Trump and budding up to Mark Suckerburg and Elongated Muscrat.

As if that orange orangutan piece of shit backed by those two fuck-asses aren’t the people who started this in the first place!

I sincerely hope none of you are fooled by this. This is straight out of Hitler’s playbook. He did almost the exact same thing in the Weimar Republic!

Only difference is when Hitler did it, he was targeting full on news organizations that were not pro Nazi. Trump is targeting an app that allows the people to freely speak to one another on a large platform.

And the next step in that plan -just like Hitler’s- is to swoop in and pretend he’s the savior while adding in extreme censorship that we probably won’t know the full impact of for years to come.

Not only that, but it looks like it’s been bought out by Meta! Which -if we all remember- works with the US government to give them our data!

This is going to lead to queer, BIPOC, disabled, and overall marginalized communities suppression.

Also think about the further implications this will mean for activist who organized on TikTok. They will be able to fully track us.

Let me say that again in case you didn’t understand, they will be fully able to track us!
