#maga #vicepresidenttrump and #presidentmusk replaced you with #china. Wait to see what they do with #H1B. Thanks for not educating yourself so we're stuck with these guys and the #oligarchy. You'll never stop working bc/ they'll cut your earned benefits and you'll never get a higher paying job.
Agreed. Those of us who have our eyes open, can still hear fairly well, and, are not in a cult — know exactly what’s going on. At the end of the day too. It’s about money. All those members of our government who have META, AMAZON and TESLA/SpaceX in their portfolios.
Oh! Is this the group “Tiny dicks club?”
What other type of person would insist on hating everyone that isn’t a white, wealthy, patriarchal , fascist man?
My wish is that they will never have the love of a good woman, (or man).They should be forced into celibacy, along with the other toxic males.
I think everyone on the left, as much as it may hurt, needs to abandon all social media except BlueSky. We need to make a statement and hit Zucky and Musky, where it hurts.
I deleted my accounts on Threads & IG today.
The only reason
I kept FB is I
Live in Mexico
most of the year.
And expats/immigrants
use FB most of the time to communicate.
Otherwise
it would be gone.
I left all SM in 2016, except for Twitter and I think that was a few days after the last election. The only thing keeping me there that long was Frmr. Pres. Obama was a follower it pained me to no end to lose.
Of course Trump changes his mind on the whole topic, as soon as one of his buddies is interested in running TikToc down to the wire to get a bargain price. This was all his idea to begin with.
Now that is fascinating.
What you are essentially stating here is that tech oligarchs know no allegiance to any particular state, as their money and power have transcending national boundaries.
I believe that you are absolutely right in this.
The traditional idea of a state is very nearly obsolete.
Wouldn’t it be something if China retaliated by taking over Tesla’s plants? Banned Google and Meta. Prohibited Apple phones and computers. Imposed tariffs on all American products imported into China, Hong Kong and Macao?
Just a thought.
Stopping Tik-Tok isn’t the answer. Stopping oligarchy is.
Radical conservative elements control:
*The Executive branch and all of the agencies, including the justice department.
*The legislative branch
*The judicial branch including the SCOTUS
*The majority of governors
*The majority of state legislatures
*The majority of police officers
*The military
China owns Musk. I don’t know why this isn’t pissing off all of MAGA. He took billions in loans from the Chinese government for that fucking factory. What do we think they’ll charge in interest?!
Steve "Stinky" Bannon said that Musk's money bought the election win for Trump. Musk has an office in our White House? & Musk is joined at the hip with China? That sounds very dangerous to me.
I just heard on NPR that Musk has started a school there by the factory in Texas. Only 21 students, so far, and supposed to be free, so far. He has plans for a university. Guess he's going to create his own H-1B workers.
The same people who depict the Chinese as the enemy do business in and with China. It’s the Republicans who will invade Panama. It’s the Chinese who will defend Panama. So, who is really the enemy here? Democrats need to realize they see us as communists. So, in their eyes, we are an enemy, too.
If trump sticks by Musk and Trump imposes tariffs that actually hurt China I can see that factory not belonging to Tesla by 2029. They may nationalise it or they may have some other way of possessing it.
They will to a degree , they will lower sales - when the price of Chinese stuff goes up in the USA people will buy less of it - which is Trump's aim but it will hurt the USA far more than it hurts China
Perhaps, something will happen last second to "save" it. But I fear it may be a right-wing person/group...again, to control the narrative. zUck and Sissy Space X want it dead, less competition. But if they could control it, the disinformation would reach catastrophic levels.
They love cheap labor/ cheap products from China, he is talking about NATO and allies with threats. I feel like his base just likes to hear the word China, and he loves to say it. But Trump looks at Tariffs as a way to pass the burden of tax to the poor, if he can trick them, they may accept it.
That’s why Elon bought the election for trump so his Tesla car company gets tariff protection-Unlike others who don’t cough up & spit out 1 Million in 47 open WH house extortion in plain sight
What is obvious is the corrupt 1% that own the GOP will allow nothing to exist they are not in control of and are the ones profiting off of. Nobody is allowed to be a Billionaire except them.
10/4. Copied. My mental health is affected by the way this incoming administration is doing things. But… this helps to hear rational speech. Thank you.
One thing these foreign governments and billionaire bros underestimated was the American people. As Paul said a lot of us are done. They believe we are lazy and dumb but we aren’t.
Very well said. Though I might say China and the oligarchs are both damn close to enemies. They both want us to be puppets, it's just a matter of who has the strings.
If they cared at all about the data being owned by China, these apps wouldn't have even been downloadable. They want the data to make money themselves and they want the app because they don't have anyone to pay to control the message. How many in congress bought meta stock this week?
Paul I haven’t tried yet but going into Baidu (Chinese Google) i’m wondering if you could slide in through the back door? And you’re absolutely right it’s no different.

I’m boycotting Musk, Bezos, Zuck and any other right wing business I see.

Without TikTok, Bluesky is the only way progressives can get messages out to the public and it's small time and may not be allowed to grow.

goo.
What could go wrong?
Maybe we were using Ivanka’s voting machines in November?

Trump was just his vehicle
Ironic
All of these apps are using data point to influence you.
It's not who is worse for doing so...it's should we allow it at all?
