  1. >Donald Trump couldn’t help but gloat Tuesday that he’d successfully bullied Mark Zuckerberg into making a spate of policy changes at Meta that will allow for the rampant spread of misinformation.

    >During a press conference, one reporter asked the president-elect whether he thought he had anything to do with Zuckerberg’s decision to supposedly recommit his social media platforms to free speech by demolishing its fact-checking system, as well as certain content filters and restrictions.

    >“Do you think he’s directly responding to the threats that you have made to him in the past?” the reporter asked.

    >“Probably,” Trump replied.

  3. It’s not like Facebook did shit in the first place. I’ve reported several “jokes” threatening violence against trans people and they never get taken down. They weren’t even from people I know or groups I’m subscribed to, but the algorithm decided I wanted to see them.

  4. Since when is it a good thing to have people afraid of you? Your ego is going to be your downfall, Trump.

  6. What Trump does when he isn’t being cucked by Musk and Putin.

  7. Remember a few months ago when trump called for this bitch to be jailed. Now look. These people are so pathetic

  8. He is like: I am so excited that right wing propaganda will prevail

  9. Mark, what is the point of training to be a UFC fighter if Trump will still push you around?

  10. The thing is, this isn’t something Meta *didn’t* want to do. It was only government regulations and lawsuits that made them content moderate in the first place. They hate moderation. It costs them money and manpower and resources, and limits the number of shady-as-fuck rich customers they can work with.

    This means they get to make the same or more money, without having to deal with moderation or the expenses of it on their platform, because there’s a corrupt fucking idiot in the White House who will rubber stamp whatever they want, so long as they let propaganda run amok on the platform.

    So, for a paltry donation to his inaugration, a trip to Florida, and the patience to let this orange moron brag in front of cameras, Facebook got everything it ever wanted.

  12. Imagine being Trump’s bitch when Trump is Musk’s bitch.

  14. These shithouse social media platforms are the reason conspiracy theories have become mainstream driving a wedge into democracy societies resulting in the election of these devil clowns in the first place.

  15. Getting rid of all my Meta social media this morning was quite freeing. Recommend.

  16. >“We are watching him closely, and if he does anything illegal this time he will spend the rest of his life in prison—as will others who cheat in the 2024 Presidential Election,” Trump wrote in his book Save America, which was published in August.

    If you thought today was bad, it’s about to get a whole lot worse. Buckle up, folks.

  17. and he’s right. meta and zuck are opportunists. so anyone working there who still gets force fed crap about values knows what’s up. this isn’t a firm that lives any sort of values anymore. they’re in survival mode and will absolutely kiss trumps ass to stay in his good graces for the next four years. otherwise elon will destroy them.

    content moderation? gone. rando dana white as a BOARD MEMBER? sure, come on in. Replace head of global policy (a UK deputy PM!) who used to be on the liberal team with Joel Kaplan, staunch conservative who took zuck to support kavanaugh’s hearing: of course!

  18. If people just stopped using their shit they’d lose advertisers and they’d be done.

  19. Well yeah, he can have people killed.

    Sorry, do people not remember that SCOTUS explicitly said that the president could send Seal Team 6 (or whoever) after his political enemies?

    I sure hope Trump’s people forgot.

  20. Zuck knows his place, knows whose bitch he is and he likes it so much he is willing to pay to be Trump’s bitch.

    Not only that but he is not even a political bitch, just Trump’s general all around bitch.

  24. They changed the rule because Facebook knows their audience. That site is nothing but a cesspool of far-right goons.

  26. I hope these clowns realize this will not stop Trump from coming after them

  27. Spineless cowards…what I’ve learned during this Trump era of politics is that there are few principled and righteous people in the world…even people with F U money bend the knee to this bloated rapist traitor…truly pathetic

  28. If Zuck only knew that he could be the bizzaro-Musk. I guess it’s time to leave Facebook now.

  30. This narrative that everyone is afraid of Donald is beyond tiring. He is trying to be a Hitler and not showing a spine isn’t going to save anyone.

  31. It seems like everyone knows Trump will be a dictator soon.

  33. zucks weener shrinks into his own anus and shrivels up and dissolves.

  34. Billionaire afraid of the big bully. What a bunch of cowards

  35. Facebook? Isn’t that MySpaces disgusting perverted cousin? I was banned from that shithole about 5 yrs ago for an anti trump post. Eff him eff suckerberg eff elonia.

  38. Another tech bro bottom right on trump’s bonfire.

  39. Restricting free speech with intimidation. Where have we heard this before?

  42. It’s true Zuckerberg is a sad little bitch.

    It must really hurt when a queen like Trump is the one making you look like a bitch.

    Watching Zuckerberg and Bezos deface themselves is the only silver lining.

  43. Let’s remember that Trump paid a porn star to have sex with him, while his wife was busy dealing with his genetic offspring.

    Although it may have been the pool boys.

  44. He’s right. Mark Cuckerberg has bent the knee for Mango Mussolini because he fears him. Line up oligarchs. Time to kiss the ring. Good dog.

  45. Spineless creatures these tech billionaries are.
