lmao Biden made sure one of the last events of his presidency was banning the most popular social media site in the country, leaving it to be unbanned by Trump days later.

Democrats really don't want to win.

Apparently in one of his recent videos, he argued we need to rethink the whole "anyone from anywhere being able to talk to anyone else" aspect of technology, on accounta scary-wary foreign disinformation

In his defense, many US normies have been very easily China-pilled in a matter of days. (And we love to see it!!!)

On the one hand, I agree with him, but only in the sense that I think AES countries need to shut down disinformation from the US and the West. Their whole argument about why they should be able to output propaganda to these countries has always been the right to freedom of speech, so it is hilarious watching one of their most sacred pillars of liberalism crumble before our very eyes.

Libs sacrificing one more of their so-called liberal values one by one when they can't control every aspect of how people exercise those values

Funny because Trump brought it up before Biden was in office. "Man praised for putting out fire after starting said fire." Lucky for him it seems TikTok users have memories as short as their media.

Edit: wording

Trump didn’t start that fire. He said “maybe we should start a fire”, then didn’t. Democrats later decided to actually start a fire. Democrats poured the fuel and Biden lit the match.

That depends if you consider his executive order talk of starting a fire, or just starting a fire.
