General Politics Thread

There was no grounded evidence to prove it. They forced it anyways. And come on, don't believe wiki that place is crawling with feds.

I mean, I had to Google it, so it was more of a cursory glance. I'd be willing to believe it's trumped up charges, don't get me wrong. If there's no evidence tying him to anything like that, then sure, commute the sentence.

Jay knows way more about his story than I do and he said the dude should not have gotten more than 4 years from what they had on him. I said 10 cause, ya know, dark web shenanigans. Either way people are praising God over his freedom so I consider it a win.
 
If Elon buys it... All he really needs to do is clean up the code. That's literally it.

Besides the algorithm fire hose. The way the recommendation system works.
 
Well damn. I’m already strongly debating leaving Twitter because of him, I don’t wanna have to think of doing the same with TikTok..
Nothing is changing. Whatever is going on at Twitter/X remains the same under Elon. I don't know why you getting scared... if Elon buys TikTok, he'd add it to his network. I.E. let's say Jay/Beerus buys a website which is more or less hard to do unless the site is similar in size to dragonballforums.com

Anyway, if they buy the new website, they'll brand it as part of the "network."
 
He shouldn't own more than one. Like look at what META did with all that power, no thank you.
The issue with Meta isn't the "network," the problem is Mark is easily manipulated. I buy websites and bring them into my network, and brand it as part of the network.

Most acquisitions are done wrong. I am the strong believer of "Don't fix what ain't broke." Or, "Business as usual." Anyone who deviates from that plan, you're fired.

Mark Zuckerberg met with the Chinese censor-in-chief, and so after that, it went downward from there. There's more, but I saw that as a red flag.

I’m not scared. I just don’t care about Elon, and know if he has it, more of the bs I don’t want to see will be pushed into my face. As I’ve said previously, I like TikTok because it’s the one at least personally, I see the least toxic content. I’m sure it’s on there, I’ve seen it sometimes, but it’s rare. For my own personal mental health, which is really bad, I don’t want to run across it more often. That’s it. I rather I just see the fun stuff I see now.

As I said before, stay in that lane ...do not go a different route. That will change the algorithm. And again, TikTok is China. What gets proped up is what the CCP wants to propagated among Americans.

Its a long explanation, but just stay in that lane.

I don't know what your issue is with Elon, but whatever.

I don’t think China is using wrestling and NASCAR, or stand up comedy as any sort of propaganda against America. Maybe cats, sure.

But I’m not sure about that. I don’t know if it’s people feel more comfortable now, or what, but I noticed again, just my personal experience, a big change once Elon took over. I seen a lot more hate from all sides. Maybe TikTok will be different, I hope so.

I have my reasons, but I can tell you don’t care so I won’t explain them.

We can end this conversation here if you so choose. I’m fine with that.
