"the only place where real news happens". What a weird phrase that is. Why would.the news happen on the website rather than being reported or discussed? Why use a passive sentence structure?.They didn't even try.

Truth Social is the ONLY place where true American patriots discuss the REAL news that the failing, fake, lame-stream.so-called media doesn't want you to know!

It's not difficult guys.

It's not passive, grammatically. But it is weird.

While it was definitely done for the LULZ, it probably was not done *solely* for the LULZ.

So are we just sending Israel obsolete weapons like we are to Ukraine?? Although they have a bunch of their own, I think.

I doubt it. US transfers of $Billions/year, every year, probably buys updated weapons.

They have a history of doing well with obsolete weapons, slings in particular.

No amount of trolling is worth the internet herpes you'd get from having a Lies Antisocial account or even clicking on the site.

I love this, but we need to remember that while we're pointing and laughing, there are actual smart fascists in the background taking notes. we did not go from the social progress of the '60s to this because they are all stupid.

Jim Jordan loses votes every time they vote for Speaker and he still won't give up. Comer held a hearing and his own witnesses said there was no evidence for impeachment.

They may not all be stupid but there's more evidence that says they are.

Biden's campaign might have joined in the nick of time. Didn't regulators throw a monkey wrench into plans to take Truth Social public? Apparently without an IPO, they'll run out of money soon, if they haven't already.

If I understood correctly what I heard, there was a T****-owned shell company that was going to "buy" it and there had been hundreds of millions of dollars invested in it, that through some scam (he's so good at thinking of scams) was going straight into his pocket.

But the SEC has been delaying the deal because it smelled funny (no shit) and now the investors have all pulled out.

It wasn't the usual IPO route I don't think. The shell company is something called a Special Purpose Acquisition Company (SPAC) which somehow does an end run around that whole "going public" process. The owner after the deal goes through is still The Former Guy.

Here's hoping it all goes down the Xhitter.

I’m tempted to join only so I can follow Dark Brandon.

I've never liked the smirking, childish, "own the libs" stuff, and I'm not much fonder of "own the MAGAts." We're shitposting while Rome burns.

Funny as hell, though.

On the other hand, you can't win converts unless you go where they are.

The Biden campaign is showing up and not just writing them off.

And - if Trump gets his account deleted that's going to be great publicity for Biden.

If this were actually Biden wasting his time on this nonsense, I'd agree. But it's a member of the campaign team, and probably only takes a couple minutes of the day.

“Doesn’t matter. Donald Trump is obsessed with size and has extremely low self esteem. This will upset him.” - Worth it for that alone! 🙌

He can surely take pleasure that Biden's unlikely to better his 91 indictments.

TBF, he’s MUCH larger than OHJB. Girthwise, at least.

I just signed up on Truth Social! My username is RalphSThompson and I'm only there to follow Biden and laugh at Trump. It actually might be a fun place to trash while he goes down if any of you old punk rockers are still up for breaking some fucking windows.

Hilarious fun! I said that I would enjoy every moment of the destruction of Trump, but this makes it even better!

If I'm following this right, TS notified their users of this new account and suddenly all these followers. Which suggests bots, or a bunch of brain-dead follower types who just reflexively accept whatever is placed in front of them.

I have been studying old maps of various empires for the past 2+ hours and I am tired, and my eyes hurt.

If Dark Brandon's team do anything interesting to further troll the MAGAt hordes please let me know, I could really use the distraction. And a nice, strong drink.

I just decided I wanted a degree so started studying history with The Open University. If you can fund it then you could do it.

Those maps are hell on my already dodgy eyes though.
