From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I mean, what is he supposed to do. The orange man threatened to put Zuckerberg in jail for the rest of his life if he doesn't comply. I have not very much hope left for the upcoming testimonies regarding Steam, Twitch, Discord and Reddit.
If you have any power at all, complying with the blatant fascist is treason. You know what happens next. Think of all the people who have virtually no power, who can be beaten, imprisoned, deported, without consequence. Chuds like Zuckerberg and Gates pave the way for that. They have enough money and power to insulate themselves.
Even fucking Musk parted company with the ghoul emperor. Imagine having less spine than someone who bought a social media platform so people would stop making fun of him (didn't work, obv).
I don't think musk actually parted ways with Trump. Considering the Trump administration keeps giving his companies contracts, it was just theater.
You are right, but I highly doubt that he cares enough considering the quote I posted earlier. He probably also has a shitload of staff around him telling him what to do, whose life also depend on him complying.
Also, Musk bought Twitter to influence the outcome of elections, not for being a petty child that doesn't want to be insulted online. Well, maybe, but that's not the whole story here.
When was that threat made?
"We are watching him closely," Mr Trump wrote in his new book, "and if he does anything illegal this time he will spend the rest of his life in prison - as will others who cheat in the 2024 Presidential Election."
August 2024
He wrote it in a book (or his writer lol), shortly before he got elected, about a year ago. Look for "Trump Zuckerberg jail threat", I don't know which source to cite here.
