I mean I see the sensibility after reading the article, especially when applied to every other politician and the like. But… Trump is hate… Its all he spews everywhere…

Trump is a worldender, a million Americans found that out dying due to an inept and purposefully sandbagged viral pandemic response during his last administration, how man you think will die this next time around
Sanctus@lemmy.world 3 months ago
Most of us. Project 2025 will turn the entire nation into a hell hole if it doesn’t rip it apart first.

Trump is a worldender
He’s just blowing the trumpet to signal the end. A symptom of a diseased system.

I’m not going to verify, because thats a long fucken time to spend scrolling an app I no longer use, but they claim they never had to use any of the strict repercussions. Do what you will with that. I know its about ads but this same stuff could happen to one of us running off of “Eat the Rich” or some shit. The article also mentions some obligation of posting to Truth Social first.

This doesn’t really matter anyways, he started his own social network, he doesn’t really want to participate in the social networks he can’t control
pyre@lemmy.world 3 months ago
i don’t know if that changes anything. Facebook is already 30% his voters and 70% bots

Just like Google, the fixation is far more on engagement farming than content quality management.
Trump stuff gets the clicks, so you’re going to see a lot more of it. Also, expect to see an increasing wave of ☯👺 𝐏ᑌＳşƳ ιᑎ вι𝕠 🐤🐧 tier posts.

Don’t forget about the soldiers with huge boots over their prosthetic legs. It’s their birthday, all 10,000 of them. So sad. Did you see the young man who made an impressive sculpture of a dog? Or how about the other 7 million of them? Dog sculpting is really taking off I hear.

Biden has had a very bad not good two weeks, and Trump seemingly is untouchable with all the momentum possible, his rape and fraud conviction, pending insurrection and classified files cases notwithstanding. We're all witness to the end of things. Buy canned food, plant vegetables.

Vote, offer rides for other voters that can’t make it on their own. If people vote, the racist rapist with 34 felonies will lose as usual.

Please reply to my post with any random emoji if you had tangible relief and improved relationships when trump was kicked off Twitter.
I noticed an immediate and drastic difference in my work environment, for example. I could elaborate but would ramble

This is because Trump was attacking Zuck, he can’t keep getting away with this shit. I hate this fucking reality

I agree that tech companies should stay out of politics. I still hate Facebook and Meta…
Crackhappy@lemmy.world 3 months ago
The zuck suck. It’s like a blowjob with all the pleasure but none of the release.

No shock there, Musky just straight up announced his support for Trump after the assassination attempt last night.

They would be stupid not to. At this point it’s almost guaranteed he will win the presidency. Nobody would like to make an enemy of POTUS.

A fascist accelerationist is poised for a possible win in the next election, and you’ve gone full Roko’s Basilisk and have decided to aid and abet the Fascist because if he wins, you want to be spared from his wrath.
We’ll let me tell you, the fascists will eventually come for you if they are allowed to take over, so you better drop the defeatism and rally for a second Biden term like your life depends on it. Plenty of people’s do.
Or just become a fascist out of cowardice, and the resistance will show you what real fear looks like when we find you, and I assure you, Trump won’t be there to save you.
So think long and hard about what the actual stupid decision would be here. Announcing your plan to enable ethnofascism in America isn’t exactly a demonstration of intelligence if you’re hoping to avoid conflict.
Psycoder@lemmy.world 3 months ago
I did not decide shit. I just explained the reasoning behind Facebook’s actions. Now everyone is calling me a fascist. I’m a progressive FFS. You guys are out of your minds.
John_McMurray@lemmy.world 3 months ago
They’re all fucking fascists, Trumps just not part of the old agenda.
Cheems@lemmy.world 3 months ago
You get the downvotes, but in a way you’re right. With scotus ruling the next president could do whatever they want as an official act and there would be little to no recourse. Sure they could sue but that would almost definitely get tied up in courts for a long time. Mr. Robot is just covering his own ass. That ruling by scotus will be the downfall of the wrong people are able to take advantage of it.
LustyArgonianMana@lemmy.world 3 months ago
“Just covering his ass” this attitude is why our country is fucked. Well as long as it benefits the millionaire personally to be a coward and sell us out, then that’s okay
These millionaires want all the power but refuse accountability. Why give him an out?
LustyArgonianMana@lemmy.world 3 months ago
Coward
Psycoder@lemmy.world 3 months ago
Because I explained the reason behind their decision?
