        Trump is in fact our most communist president.

        I think “nationalist” is the word you’re looking for.

        The Nazis did the same shit, and despite the name, they were not socialist.

          Looking it up, Bytedance still gets half the profit from TikTok and the rest is distributed to Oracle, Silver Lake, and MGX, so, no, no profits are going into the US treasury.

          And it’s also observed, capturing TikTok may just be the same move as the German Reich to turn media into a state-sanctioned mouthpiece. But I don’t know who determines the parameters of the TikTok algo.

            I remember vaguely that algo was supposed to be in the hands of Oracle, otherwise it doesn’t make any sense.
