Good info

Just a reminder of some of the context around the TikTok ban: In 2020, Trump tried to ban it via executive order a couple months after K-pop fans used it to organize fake signups to Trump’s Tulsa rally, which led him to publicly overestimate how large the crowd size would be.

Aaaah...I'd forgotten that 🤣

Yeah 😂

& now Shou Chew is actually going to attend the inauguration of said felon?

vtroy.bsky.social•41 days ago

Yeah, but people don’t go to level 2 stories anymore. For example, how Trump was the one who committed the US withdrawal from Afghanistan.

Revenge and bullying

Ah, the Tulsa rally. Where covid-positive staff milled around, while then-Felon-to-be said one of those NOT-jokes: that he'd been telling them do less testing. You do less testing, he said, and you have a lot less positives. He meant it. Tulsa ... there's more. Always more.

What lol

We need to remind people that Trump was one of the people who WANTED to ban it and if he works a deal with ByteDance, it's not going to be the same site it was *points to Twitter*.

Thats what so many on here don't get. It was a place where a lot of political organizing happened. This is an attack on free speech.

birdie56.bsky.social•41 days ago

I remember that.

jerseygirl66.bsky.social•41 days ago

It’s the start of the government crackdown on free speech.

Trump knows the American people have very short memories.

Everything, everyone he touches becomes a $hit show.

The MAGAs will blame Biden for banning it. And 🍊 will have his musk and Zuckerberg using their platforms with foreign trolls doing all the work for him pushing propaganda and lies to garner support, do damage control and smear campaigns against any opposing voices. They do it on BlueSky also

The November Frontline on PBS was about Xi Jinping. I wish more of the media coverage of Tik Tok would remind people that China is a hostile foreign power run on lies and techno-autocratic state power.

alicechamber.bsky.social•41 days ago

I work with young people. They really got under his onion 🧅 thin skin during his last term as Grifter n' Chief.

jctandco.bsky.social•41 days ago

I deleted the app. It’s obviously going to come back as a Musk or Meta run app meant to push state run propaganda.

jamieedson.bsky.social•41 days ago

Good for them. I hope people keep doing things like that.
