I would absolutely read a 5,000-word deep-dive on whatever high-powered PR agency is charging Mark Zuckerberg tens of millions of dollars to shape his public image as a bootlicking scrub

bloomberg.comZuckerberg Says Most Companies Need More ‘Masculine Energy’Mark Zuckerberg lamented the rise of “culturally neutered” companies that have sought to distance themselves from “masculine energy,” adding that it’s good if a culture “celebrates the aggression a bi...

...and the $900,000.00 watch, fer cryin' out loud. Clearly, money does not buy fashion sense, nor common decency. For the overwhelming majority of us, $50,000 would take care of our problems - medical debt, back taxes... But 100's of BILLIONS turns humans into MONSTERS. They look like...oops, no mo

These are the styling decisions of an assistant manager at a struggling bar vehemently arguing to the owner that they should move to an 18-and-up format because “that’s the scene our most loyal customers are looking for”

When one stands back and just watches these flips in the technologarchs it is so scary. What do they know? Is there some mammoth payoff for those who play? Were there threats? I can feel the stress thru the ether. Running or persuing?

Zuckerberg and the other tech oligarchs aren’t bending the knee to Trump and Musk. All these “moderation programs” and “statements of principles” were just PR campaigns meant to hide their antidemocratic actions. They’re not scared, they’re overjoyed. jaredyatessexton.substack.com/p/what-they-...

Are we even surprised Zuck turned out like this. He started Facebook as a way to objectify and rate women at Harvard. He’s just been emboldened by the political shift to right wing extremism.

Suckerberg sold his sole to the dark side. He drank the kool-aid for more power and money. Well none from me. I know I'm just a middle class person but I would like to stay that way.

The face of a 7000 page manifesto about sadistically killing all women for withholding sex from him, found under the same bed its author died on age 83, fortunately having been to averse to taking responsibility for his own life to act on it.

Funny its a lot of that same “ masculine energy” that you could say began both world wars. And Vietnam. And the Gulf War…I think we all know where I’m going with this. Though most of them didn’t dress like they were going through a mid-life crisis as wanna be Olympic break dancers

Zuck discussing censorship??? What a joke. This guy created one of the world’s largest media platforms that censors any comparison of Donald Trump to Adolph Hitler, for example. In fact, I’ve been in FB jail for mentioning historical facts about Hitler.

I watched a snippet of his interview with Rogan and I couldn’t stomach how absolutely cringe it was listening to him talk about finding his “aggression” and this primal masculinity he was missing 🤢 he is and will always be a fascist dork

Scary!! 👻🎃
@kobayashimaruu.bsky.social

far right freaks choke on their own fumes when they have to be nice at least on a surface level and not call people slurs. they call it virtue signaling when companies are polite to everyone when it's really just... being normal.

I’m not keen on leaving my social history, etc. I do enjoy having it as much as I hate Meta. So it leaves me thinking about how best to extract my information in a way that will give me not only freedom from them but also the enjoyment of seeing updates over time. I imagine this is true for many

This is easy Elon has agreed to make Drumpf drop the antitrust suit if he complies and to prosecute the antitrust case if not. Likewise Biden told him if he didn’t fact check the truth that he would get slapped with an antitrust lawsuit. Tell nothing but lies vs attempt to fight GOP propaganda.

No one give off the masculine vibes quite like Zuck 🤪. ( side note: on a trip to Kauai. Taking a fence lined path that runs alongside his property to a beach. It was covered with signs addressed to “Mark F*@kwad Zuckerberg”. That was at least 10 yrs ago. Hawaii is NOT a fan of his. )

@markfford.bsky.social

He *worries* about “culturally neutered” but that’s exactly what Meta et al seek to create; an idealised 19thC middle aged Anglo Saxon (if not Norse even) monocultural theocracy under the dollar.

This was exactly my thought. He’s just feeling more comfortable to show his true colours. I’ve got my notebook out to note down all the people who out themselves through the orange man’s term.

All ppl need to know that - to Facebook, users r commodities to generate income & profit. Privacy? BS. They develop ever more invasive & involuntary means to peer into user's wish & desires to force-feed them w/ the right Ad to sell another product. U can live w/o FB FB can't live w/o you.

Well that PR agency sucks at their job he is a nerd geek and has enough money to buy his way into the cool kids club… but he is just not cool at all. He looks desperate like he is trying way too hard for someone with all that money. Most people are not cool accept who you are.

@alhadis.bsky.social

Zuck's entire "makeover" as a goofy college fratboy is just one big PR stunt to distract the public from the heinous shit Meta did in Zuck's pre-MMA years, so that he can try to recoup some of his company's damaged reputation by appearing to have turned over a new leaf. He's still the same — Fake.

Those that complain about lack of masculinity and the like, are just exposing how fragile theirs is. Sad. Sad also, as the rest of us are the ones that pay for that fragility.

Jade
@jadeaya.bsky.social

Acceptance is the key. Self acceptance most likely. Such fragility imo, is a sign of something repressed. You may be right. to take the first step...

He may also be another in a vast sea that was told by those that he trusted, said they loved him, that he was not man enough etc. Seeing others live their authentic lives triggers people like him, as it represents all that they wish they could be, but lack the courage. 2/2

I saw him on the tube the other day, and my first thought was, "Hasn't he grown up yet?" Not just his appearance but his manner as well smack of the post pubescent insecurities most of us outgrow after high school.

Nooo...we sure don't need that. Toxic masculine culture has been the norm for waay too long. Having worked in high tech manufacturing for much of my career, I've been fortunate to work for some truly amazing female bosses, directors, VP's and a fantastic CEO. So no to masculine nonsense.

@leemancapote.bsky.social

That's it. Western civilization has cashed the check. Zuck calling for masculine energy in the corporate environment is the dumbest thing I have seen from someone who has this kind of clout in the private sector. This is Trumpster Diver level hubris/stupid.
