No thanks, we’re good.

TikTok!? Who gives a shit? How about save Palestine first?

Joker@sh.itjust.works on 12 Nov 17:49 next collapse

TikTok is more important apparently.

femtech@midwest.social on 12 Nov 19:12 next collapse

He is going to help pave over Palestine, not save it.

expr@programming.dev on 12 Nov 19:49 next collapse

It’s delusional to think he was ever going to do anything but accelerate the genocide.

TseseJuer@lemmy.world on 12 Nov 20:44 next collapse

yea lers cry about it on lemmy that will show drumpf where his priorities should be not to the American people but yea

TexMexBazooka@lemm.ee on 13 Nov 12:37 next collapse

He definitely not going to do that

technocrit@lemmy.dbzer0.com on 13 Nov 17:32 next collapse

They’re closely related issues. Zios have been trying to ban TikTok because of the unfiltered coverage of Palestine.

If you were under the illusion that Trump is going to improve the situation for the Palestinians in any way, I have a bridge to sell you…

EncryptKeeper@lemmy.world on 12 Nov 17:57 next collapse

Is he not the very same president who tried to ban it before?

orclev@lemmy.world on 12 Nov 17:59 collapse

Yes, but now the cheque cleared. Or he’s just trying to suck up to Xi, you know one or the other.

ChocolateTeapot@lemmy.world on 12 Nov 18:01 next collapse

Probably both!

“Buy my commemorative coins, the best coins, for the new present the true present, there shouldn’t have been another one but there was and that’s ok we will let them do that but they shouldn’t have done it but it’s ok because I’m back now on tictoc shop” - DJ Trump

Or he can use it and adjust the algorithms to promote himself. Probably use for surveillance too

xc2215x@lemmy.world on 12 Nov 23:40 next collapse

I remember him wanting to ban it before.

Inconsistency is the only thing Trump can be counted on to do reliably.

technocrit@lemmy.dbzer0.com on 13 Nov 17:33 collapse

Good.

What part is good? That he vowed to force ownership into U.S. hands for security reasons, or that now he vowed to stop himself?
