Exactly! Facebook and Instagram are the same conglomerate company. (Facebook bought Instagram). Basically they need to boost their stock price now whereas in 2021 their stock was flying high. More active users equals more advertising/money, and that’s what they’re hoping on.You can't make this shit up. Maybe they think he will help their floundering platforms.
During the covid pandemic so many of my Facebook friends were put in "Facebook prison" for saying things like "masks don't work" or "there are serious side effects to the covid vaccine". Things that Fauci himself now says. I think a lot of us aren't going back.So strange... so, FB and Instagram are discovering that you lose active users when you tell 50% of your potential user base that you want nothing to do with them.
Its all about being PC now. You would be surprised at the extremely large number of successful corporations that IMO lean highly towards the left when it comes to being PC. So much so, that it starts to become silly IMO but that is the norm. I'm not so sure that our culture will ever dig out of this now but who knows.So strange... so, FB and Instagram are discovering that you lose active users when you tell 50% of your potential user base that you want nothing to do with them.
It's almost like the NFL telling half their fans that they're racists... what could possibly go wrong?
Why in the world are these corporations getting themselves mixed up in politics? If I'm Coca-Cola, I want everyone to drink my soft drinks. Straight people, gay people, white people, black people. Why in the world would I say or do anything to alienate any of my potential customers? And when they do insert themselves into polarizing issues, they ought to get hit with shareholder lawsuits, because that behavior is clearly not in the best interests of the shareholders (i.e., the owners of the company).
Probably not but I bet money that Trump does. He is only reaching Trumpers on Truth Social. He is reaching no one else unless he goes back to FB and Instagram. It is the smart thing for him to do. Otherwise, he has NO chance in 2024.During the covid pandemic so many of my Facebook friends were put in "Facebook prison" for saying things like "masks don't work" or "there are serious side effects to the covid vaccine".

Exactly.Social media is a cancerous time sink.
There are 5 big corporations that own everything. That's why they are all following the narrative.So strange... so, FB and Instagram are discovering that you lose active users when you tell 50% of your potential user base that you want nothing to do with them.

Dude, I just stopped replying because they would ban me for everything.During the covid pandemic so many of my Facebook friends were put in "Facebook prison" for saying things like "masks don't work" or "there are serious side effects to the covid vaccine".
