don't question the data. You don't want to make them mad

No, not the vaccine data: But how the press is lauding what this video claims:

 Threads Gains 30M Users in ONE Day - Is Twitter Finished?

 

 hmm. Really? On a holiday weekend, when most folks are busy having fun, 30 million people had nothing better to do but download a new app and sign up for it.

Or maybe not: But the comment under the video states:

Meta have annouced that 10 million users have joined Threads since it’s launch on Wednesday.

 MarketWatch clarifies this: it was launched on Wed evening.

Meta’s Threads has 30 million users in less than 24 hours after launch..The app garnered 2 million users in the first two hours after launch, according to Zuckerberg’s first post on the platform.

Within seven hours, that number had grown to 10 million. Shortly after 11 a.m. Eastern time, the Facebook founder again posted to say the number had tripled..(30 million)

I'm not the only one a little bit suspicious of the numbers: 

..Meta’s stock, meanwhile, was slightly lower in afternoon trade with markets in selloff mode,.

 Propaganda against Musk of course. 

He opened Twitter to dangerous ideas, and of course, this freedom for deplorables to express themselves has been made worse by a US court decision that the US government could not pressure social media (news) sites to censor government critics who they see as pushing "disinformation".

That dang first amendment

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

 and to make things worse, the SCourt just said that you could not force Christians who own businesses to become platforms to push activities that go against their religion.

 Dang it. Next thing you know, the courts will stop the great Biden from forcing religious hospitals and medical personnel from cooperating with abortion or sterilization or elective gender surgeries.

Right now, the fundamentalist athiest activists are very active in politics, and guess who they are trying to force to conform to their creed?
