A “glitch”

Maybe it's because Biden wants to send the Israeli terrorists another $8 billion?

So Zuck deliberately distorts the truth and lies. Whyever would he do such a thing. Surely he's not a dishonest person.

In other words zuck spreading bs

Or he's simply telling the fascists what they want to hear in order to suck up to them.

Yes and people will stick with Facebook because many small businesses and groups are tied to it and there isn’t yet an alternative that offers the same service.

Every day I wake up to more evidence that Zuck sucks.

Too kind, "seems to have been fed" when he has drunk his own Flavorade for decades now.

It’s always about chasing where the profits are. If Harris had won the election & things were more socially progressive, he’s be finding a way to capitalize on that.

It's a race to the bottom. Specifically, a diaper-clad bottom.

Zuckerberg knows exactly what BS he's peddling and it's tailored to suck up to incoming administration. Suckuperberg.

Zuck seems to have been fed *the false narrative* Yeah, you are being kind here--given the hands-on decision making he's shown in other parts of the business, it would be odd he suddenly gets passive here.

#SWIFTBOATING 💯

Think this highlights why no one person should have so much power. Because we are all fallible easily duped one way or another. Not sure how you eliminate this because they seem to have the power to also have a bunch of enablers around them. People are pretty cowardly, including me.

Or he's just a liar/coward and doesn't want to hide from MAGA in his compound.

He also knows that tens of millions of people are too stupid or too deep in the Trump cult to know he's full of shit.

There is thevery real fact that the heads of the large social media companies have gone MAGA because they know that in 4 years the Republicans will put up a very real battle against having more elections, and they will be instrumental in making this happen. The 1st oligarchies in the US?

I'm not sure how informed he actually is. For example, he still thinks he's in charge at Meta. He is not.

There is MONEY TO BE MADE! Do you not understand what is important here?

Zuck sucks.

He also doesn’t care.

#Rollup

If only people weren’t so lazy…

💯 #BLOVIATE and #BULLSHIT

He's gone full Elon. I'm wagering he throws Priscilla overboard next

I was thinking Germanicus. Or Caligula.

My partner insists it’s a perm but no. The baggy tshirt and pendant were interesting choices.

Aced it!

Greed and Vanity. They desperately need to be relevant and cool.

Also possible that he knows the truth and yet chooses to say things that are not true.

📌

“The Peter Principle” should be a law.

Zuck has limited time and probably only really listens to a limited amount of people. This suggests Zuck has a lot of respect for Musk and probably takes everything he says at face value.

Yes we will be Russia soon enough . We just have to be smart enough to not be super impoverished resource scarce Russians. This is why we need to build up communities where we can take care of each others.

And the shakedown won’t end any time soon. This cowardice shit just encourages more

@mmasnick.bsky.social noted the “seems” in the Fed “the false narrative” part . This Zuck pivot / repudiation tour has been extremely well coordinated. An Elon Musk copycat, commanding a news cycle with “better late than never” extreme talking points. Appreciated your detail

Tech bros often got there first. Or more often bought or stole it (see Musk).

I had “Deja vu” when I heard this, a find dirt on Biden quid pro quo similarity.

Only the sentiment matters anymore sadly. Maybe thats all thats ever mattered.

Of course he doesn’t. He created the site so Ivy League guys could rank who was hot & who wasn’t. And people are now surprised that he wants to toss marginalized people under the bus? That’s always who he was.

She was absolutely a diversion and positioned as the "adult" in the room while the media treated him like a little boy genius well into his mid 30s.

Perspectives shape reality. What's your take?

This isn't the first time Zuckerberg has lied!!😂🤣😅😆 Not even the 1,000th!

Yes, it's what he's always wanted to do. Trump have him license. He's a very very bad dude - another transactional narcissist. All the techbros who made it to the top are the most unscrupulous and self-centered of all the players.

Craven plutocrat/oligarch

He is talking to Rogan's audience. Everything goes. 😤

thank you for this! 🙏

We shouldn’t be surprised he was just debriefed at Trumps palace. They are all in this together yet all these people can’t see what is really happening. These billionaires don’t care about us, period. They only care about our money.

I'll add that it's HIGHLY unlikely Meta was asked to remove any posts mentioning that the vaccine had side effects, since it obviously does. It would be incredibly poor public messaging. Rather, they may have been asked to take down false claims about side effects, which were common on Insta/FB

@skyview.social unroll

It’s all so stupid 🤦‍♂️

Thank you for clearing this up!

Idiocracy a few centuries too early. ☹️

Can you post this as a reply to the Elon Musk/Joe Rogan post on Twitter. It’s not the only way to prevent Twitter become the truth (not)

get his ass, mike

Agree

💯

A stupid timeline with radicalization holes.

We do live in the most asinine timeline. And we seem to be trapped here.

Evergreen

@mmasnick.bsky.social thanks for the run through of that!

This all assumes that the receipts aren’t out there and we can’t check them ourselves. Thanks for doing the work Mike. You have spent more time researching this apparently than Suckerberg.

Indubitably

I've got a cartoon for that, Mike @mmasnick.bsky.social. By the great Dave Whamond @davewhamond.bsky.social.

Zuckerberg crying about Biden officials raising their voice at some of his team members about Covid censorship, which never happened, while Trump threatens to jail him for life and close down Meta. Crickets from Zuck on that.

Why are these White men allowed to lie with impunity? There’s no downside. The national press don’t point out the lies; they parrot them. Then the Financial Times publishes Peter Thiel’s ramblings. 🤦🏼‍♀️ Yes a “stupid fucking timeline.”

Since this thread has gone a bit viral, I might as well point out that you can still back our game, One Billion Users as a late pledges... bsky.app/profile/mmas...

getyarn.io/yarn-clip/6b...

Perhaps the stupidest

Or just how fucking stupid Zuck is

I blame the Large Hadron Collider for nudging us into an alternate universe containing the Small Hardon Colluder.

Zuck appears to have drunk the metaphorical kool-aid. In this case probably Ketamine, at an all night Claremont rave.

Choose Your Own Adventure

Yes. Great thread; thanks.

I suspect Zuck knows the truth and is just lying, like he usually does.

Hucksterberg is just an Aspy doing Aspy shit, trying to fit in with his peers on the ASPD spectrum. It’s really not that hard to figure out.

Bingo 👏🏽 more important even than the money. They crave it. Zuck, Bezos, Elon, Rogan, Vance…

Or he’s just lying. Musk and Trump have demonstrated that simply just lying is fine these days.

Lol CEOs/owners of megacorps talking directly to commoners? Don't make me laugh!

📌

He’s been punched one too many times in the head!

Or hear me out here....he didnt need to be fed the info as he like all right wingers argue in bad faith. He knows its not true. But the lie benefits him so lie he chooses.

Without a doubt.

We shouldn’t let Andreessen off the hook on this either, given his board seat.

Or he knows the narrative is false and repeats it anyway.

Exactly. There’s no behind the scenes puppeteering of Zuck going on, he’s just as shameless and politically expedient as the other oligarchs.

My brain. It hurts.

Fuckerberg knows EXACTLY who sold Facebook user data in 2016 to Cambridge Analytica to (together with Russia) micro-target Americans and get Trump elected. He doesn't need to ask anyone what happens in Meta. He knows. It's deliberate.

He wasn't fed shit. He knows the truth but doesn't care.

@skyview.social unroll

You’re thinking he’s been mislead as a talking point. He knows exactly what happened and is lying about it. That works way better.

Wow. “Twitter Files.” if no other good comes from this whole episode, at least I’ll probably not have to hear about corrupt pro-Kremlin sex-pest Matt Taibbi ever again.
