Musk gets 50%

Because if this is how it all went down, this is the stupidest shit ever and people are extremely gullible.

korgtorc.bsky.social•40 days ago

It’s pretty much the Trump video app now.

pokerwolf.bsky.social•40 days ago

Yup

whippedbreen.bsky.social•40 days ago

Humanity is a plague

lewdcreatures.bsky.social•40 days ago

People were crediting trump with "fixing" things the day after the election.

kadath.bsky.social•40 days ago

This country is doomed lol

threetails.bsky.social•40 days ago

Yes and yes.

astridursa.bsky.social•31 days ago

The american people being gullible is the most perfect description of why trump is back in office.

min212.bsky.social•38 days ago

You just realized that the mass majority of people are idiots?

jackalovski.bsky.social•40 days ago

Everything after trump got elected president the first time is the stupidest shit ever, putting us on a timeline written by gods who love dark, comic satire. We are but sims suffering for their amusement

threetails.bsky.social•40 days ago

This timeline feels like it was written by a rotating staff consisting of George Orwell, Philip K Dick, and Johnathan Swift.

jackalovski.bsky.social•40 days ago

With screenplay by Charlie Brooker 😔

davidnunyabiz.bsky.social•40 days ago

So in your opinion is this a Biden or trump win?

kadath.bsky.social•40 days ago

It's the latter. Turnip is getting all the credit for 'saving' it, even though it's pretty clear there was deal-making and TikTok is overtly pushing it as him saving it.

The Dems are consistently losing the information war because they refuse to play hardball and want to 'be the adults'.

davidnunyabiz.bsky.social•40 days ago

Even if trump didn't personally do the work to unban tiktok the fact that he and his party can claim they did is such a huge L for the democrats less than worthless scumbags

maverick-straft.bsky.social•40 days ago

PR stunt for Trump, he started the problem and then solved it so he can be a hero

maverick-straft.bsky.social•40 days ago

Plus, now he has power over it so…

synicism.bsky.social•40 days ago

You forgot about a whole bunch of Congressfolk who voted for the ban suddenly praising efforts to delay it.

donryu.bsky.social•40 days ago

Yes the public has that little memory and they are exactly that stupid

this is what the school-to-military pipeline does

succuboi-bunni.bsky.social•40 days ago

As an American, this is all just a fucking gaslight from hell. Talk about such an open and blatant show of propaganda, the orange fuck set everything up to be the “savior.” We have such a corrupt government all around it, its.. wild.. Welcome to the Oligarchy Show 😭💔

tessmont.bsky.social•40 days ago

You’re forgetting the part in the beginning where thousands of people registered for one of his rallies during Covid, they overestimated the crowd size and he threw a fit and decided TikTok needs to go bc that’s how they organized.

thatnoobguy.bsky.social•40 days ago

I believe this is indeed the timeline

th3l0edrift3r.bsky.social•39 days ago

Truthfully left or right both are corrupt.

lshaonu.bsky.social•40 days ago

:o Quite astute.

cocomalca.bsky.social•40 days ago

I’m not going back to tic tok I’m good ✊🏽

bluewarrior64.bsky.social•40 days ago

You forgot TT giving dumpty a butt load of money on crypto coin back channel.

kadath.bsky.social•40 days ago

Yeah he became suspiciously super wealthy overnight just in time to change his mind about them.

kcorstel99.bsky.social•40 days ago

Well, he hasn't saved it YET. We'll see if he gets to it before he gets distracted.

captoverkill.bsky.social•40 days ago

bluefwa.bsky.social•40 days ago

America's timeline is basically the biggest circus ever in history.

kadath.bsky.social•40 days ago

It's an absolute embarassment. It's like all the stereotypes taken to the nth degree.

foab30.bsky.social•40 days ago

And when something goes wrong, it'll be the fault of someone else entirely.

I remember him taking stock market cred months ago, then it dipped and was someone else's fault, then it went back up and that was apparently 'all him'. Its maddening.

stopmensviolenceau.bsky.social•40 days ago

Did Biden sign it?

Don’t forget the last minute Meta meddling. Meta changes all their policies to be a propaganda and hate machine, and then hours before the closure Meta makes a tiktok account and asks people to link their tiktok and fb accounts. Its fine. Nothing to see here.

kadath.bsky.social•40 days ago

I suspect Zuckerberg was more behind the ban than any actual security concerns. He just wanted competition gone, and to be THE main reseller of people's data.

stopmensviolenceau.bsky.social•40 days ago

I agree. The deal was done. You roll over on facts and you can have the data of the angry mob arguing rage bait.
