   I’m listening to Mark Zuckerberg’s interview on the Joe Rogan show, and he’s really leaning into MAGA rhetoric.

   I don’t support Joe Rogan or anything like that, but this interview is eye-opening, and everyone should listen to it to understand what’s really going on.

     @fotografie_ol Finds halt krass was er so äußert.

     Angefangen von der bösen "Biden Administration“ die uns gezwungen hat, zu „die EU stört unsere Geschäfte und die USA soll sie zwingen es zu unterbinden“ bis "wir brauchen mehr Maskulinität im Unternehmen“

     The Verge covered this interview.

     Whats next Mark? Perhaps it will be to pressure the EU into loosening AI regulations, allowing Meta to deploy its AI systems across Europe to extract value without taking on any real responsibilities.

     This no longer feels like a free market. If you’re looking for investment advice, just keep betting on the big tech monopolies. It seems likely that the U.S. will protect them to serve its own interests.

     What disturbs me even more is their belief that the EU fines Meta simply because it’s a US company.

     No, the EU fines Meta because they break European laws on European soil. What exactly is Mark demanding? That EU laws shouldn’t apply to US companies operating within the EU?

     Think about it. No taxes, no safety standards, nothing. Just because their global HQ is in the US?

     @mattiem Indeed, and with the constant threat of the “US leaving NATO,” it feels like they want everything: access to our markets without following the rules.

     The alternative would be simple, leave the market if it’s not profitable enough to comply with the regulations. But instead, they choose to threaten us to secure their profits.

     @obrhoff One of the primary targets is these EU regulations. Favor with the incoming US administration is going to be a key weapon.
