You know you goofed when Truth Social turns you in to the feds

Truth social is in it for the grift, not for the heat. They aren't really the revolutionary counterculture fortress they make themselves out to be. They just figured out that stupid people are easy to monetize. Which is rapidly becoming MBA canon for all social media.

Honestly monetizing stupidity if you don't have any personal morals is exceptionally easy. I often get jealous at the revenues even some of the simplest of these gifts are, and monkeypaw wish I was a shittier person.

It's why every scammer goes after old people. They usually aren't as sharp as they once were unfortunately...

My coworker just told me a story about his grandmother being robbed of 300k because some asshat came to her house and said she absolutely had to have the roof redone asap or it would collapse on her... She drove him to the bank and emptied her account... I was infuriated hearing about that and that he got away...

Why do you say that? Do you think an obvious grift like truth social isn't going to be play nice with the government? Why would any action they do hold more weight then something like facebook, reddit or lemmy?
