#ElonMusk effectively admits that the truthfulness of what he says cannot be trusted: youtu.be/cw0F8G4-dMw?... He says that it should be corrected, but he makes that difficult by skewing a social media network in his favour, and has a history of suing in an attempt to suppress criticism of him.

As the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. wisely said, "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter." Today and every day, I pledge to never silence my voice in the fight for what is right, and I will continue to march in the path he forged toward justice.

MAGA is now predictably trying to blame Democrats for TikTok shutting down. 1) It was a bill passed by Congress. 2) More Republicans than Democrats voted to ban the app.
