The authoritarian script:
1) Court rules against leader
2) Attack judges as biased/dangerous
3) Delegitimize judicial system
4) Create permission for threats
5) IF NO MASS RESISTANCE → Purge the courts
6) IF MASS RESISTANCE → Forced to retreat

NEW: Trump orders federal health agencies to STOP communicating health advisories, weekly scientific reports, updates to websites, and to stop making social media posts. I said previously I was worried about the lack of reporting. Here it is. www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...

So Trump “saves” Tik Tok and is now the hero. Shou kissed the ring and now the government may own the largest source of information for younger generations.
This isn’t normal.

People are messaging me saying Zuck bought TikTok, and they’ll never go back. Meanwhile, I’ll be on YouTube clicking every Facebook and Insta ad I see just to cost Meta money. Play the long game, folks.

I’m absolutely living for pettiness coming out of the Tik Tok ban. Talk about overplaying your hand and an entire generation going, “bet.”

Getting a new social media app is a lot like starting a new relationship. There’s a lot of rigmarole: you have to get to know it, it has to get to know you. Eventually it sells your personal data to an adversarial government and faces legal sanctions as a result… tale as old as time, really
