Can I ask for some context on who this Benny Johnson grifter dude Null keeps shitting on is? I know he was a former Buzzfeed and Yahoo News editor who plagiarized a bunch of shit and that he runs a frankly disturbing amount of defense for Andrew Tate but does he actually have any political connections/pull with the wider conservative crowd or is he just another retard with a podcast?
 
Thanks, excellent context.

How huge of a problem is this for Texas?

Also, holy shit isn't that political suicide for every GOPe that caucused with the Dems? Especially now? That's flagrant.
I don't think it's much of a problem overall for Texas, this is inside baseball stuff. The Texas state legislature Republicans as a whole have passed a lot of based legislation in the last several sessions and will continue to do so

I would say Benny Johnson was medium influential in the internet MAGAsphere but has been losing that gradually for a while now. Like a lower-mid B-tier guy who has slid down into C-tier and that slide shows no signs of ending
 
Anytime some stoner tries to tell me their bullshit about it being a miracle drug and how it's okay to smoke yourself retarded with it I think of this meme.

That meme only works because Alcoholics have been able to go anywhere at almost any time and get their drug of choice, throughout western history.
The worst thing pot heads do is sit there and do nothing with their life. The worst thing alcoholics do is ruin everything around them.
 
Ha that's the same job title and DoD contractor Snowden worked for.
Also, iirc, Snowden asserts that the role was as an actual NSA glownigger, just one working under corporate cover for BAH. Wonder if this dude is in the same boat, because if he's only "acting" as a contractor, he's in that role to be deniable. Snowden said the same thing about his role at Dell, iirc.

He always came across to me like someone who was trying to ride the trends but then wound up steering towards the Ethan Ralph gambit in the hopes of getting a full Snickers.

He got some wind in his channel during the election. He can swing interviews with Trumps legal council. But he is a fucking fool, who uses AI gen thumbs and click bait titles. He is like a really shit version of Tim Pool. A wannabe.
 
He's making a joke about how dopamine-fried teens are downloading Xiaohongshu as a replacement for TikTok, which is just replacing Chinese spyware with even more blatant Chinese spyware.
Really? It's not even in English.
This has to be some gay psyop akin to trying to get everybody to ditch Xitter for Bluesky.
 
The only reason to not sell is because handing the company to a non chinese state actor would result in massive amounts of incriminating data and espionage to be discovered.
It also kills the entire point of the app.

The app is not profitable. They're doing it because it directly gives them infinite amounts of data on American users and actively allows them to influence American culture. The vapid shit we get on TikTok? It's not on Chinese TikTok, they don't allow it on Chinese TikTok. That's not accidental -- while it's an inexact science (video games do not make children violent), having control of the algorithm gives them some control over the users. Losing control would make the app pointless.

Just ask the left after Elon Musk's takeover of Twitter. There's a reason they're still, STILL, assmad about that. It's not cause running a social media site is their passion, it's because by controlling it they controlled what was talked about -- and what wasn't talked about.

Plus, by shutting it down immediately it causes the most social harm to the US. All those TikTok addicts will immediately be forced into withdrawls. All those grifters and freaks on the site will immediately break containment and try their shit on twitter or youtube shorts. Remember when people realized there was a MASSIVE problem on Tumblr of idiot teenaged girls posting self made child porn (actual porn, not "loli" art), including selling it on premium download sites they linked to? Remember when Tumblr cracked down even a little and containment was broken?

It's going to be like that but for 4/10 35 year old women looking stupid while pointing at someone else's videos playing above their head.
