ah, so now instead of China spying on TikTok users, it will be Russia spying on TikTok users.

Why not both? And the Americans too, of course.

Or both…

Na, 10 bucks says it’s Elon he saw how much mileage he got out of Twitter so why not? Just think of the new damage he could do with TikTok.

Its still gonna have backdoor code to China.

So its Russia, China, and Kremlin’s Satelite Regime the USA, the Unholy Trinity of evil nations.

How profound! I would have thought a group of poor people were sure to snag it up.

Hahahaha hahaha hahaha bro, they literally seized every digital channel you all are like “let’s go stand in the street to show people who many of us there are” that’ll fucking change things.

In order to make sure they were wealthy enough, I’m sure he personally tested them one by one, challenging to send him a big donation in cryptocurrencies.

That’s what a committed President-slash-genius looks like!

Totally, and the deal’s going to happen in two weeks. Definitely two weeks.

Yup, just like we were going to wait 2 weeks to decide whether to engage with Iran, or get trade deals during the temporary tariff lift. So much trust right now.

Bet it’s the Moonies. They’re cashed up and all over right-wing politics across the world.

themurphy@lemmy.ml on 30 Jun 15:03 next collapse

Ah, so now the president chooses who gets to buy which businesses, totally not choosing the ones who will cock suck him all day.

And TikTok will not be the last. Now a wealthy person can just ask the US to buy up something. Doesnt sound like Russia at all.
