Yeah, for reasons I still don’t understand — probably because it’s driven by Peter Thiel’s Deep Incel Thoughts — JD Vance and co. were big fans of Lina Khan’s FTC antitrust moves during the Biden administration.

The growing hatred for Big Tech is largely bipartisan.
Imagine if instagram took down Facebook as a separate company and leadership

Same for WhatsApp

Both companies had amazing founders who could have thrived if Facebook didn’t take them out

We would have a tech landscape of two independent companies and “meta” being just another Yahoo or MySpace

Facebook didn’t innovate it crushed innovation.

Fuck them and I hope Trump scewers Zuck

Do you really want to live in a universe where Trump has his hands wrapped around the necks of the media and the press?

What sort of quid-pro-quo do you think he would get in exchange for not squeezing?

If you have any delusions that this can turn out well look at what happened with Eric Adams.
