If people are going to make money from social media, it seems so wildly obvious that what can be broadcast by the platforms is regulated in the same was as TV is.
Hate-filled fake videos about London are everywhere. We've obtained a recording of a TikToker confessing to secretly filming Londoners in their homes for clicks.
He says it's not political. He just wants to make money from far-right anger.

I would definitely credit our local Carnegie Library for my love of reading, escape from my shitty hometown and pursuit of a doctorate. Musk is a net negative on the world and it won't miss him when he's gone.

Not sure that someone with such a low level of basic comprehension should be allowed out on their own, let alone run as a political candidate.
Offord is now addressing why he’s the owner of a racing yacht - named Braveheart.
He once again quotes the lyrics to Dignity by Deacon Blue.
He says he loves the song’s “message of working hard and making dreams come true”.

stop using AI to do your research. it hallucinates too often. if you want an answer to something, post something arrogant on the appropriate subreddit. something like: "this item performs 10% better than everything else. only idiots deny this." this will bait nerds into doing your research for you.

You can't watch Trump's speech at Davos and believe this sane washing bullshit.
I think, genuinely, that American media outlets are too embarrassed to report the truth. Relatedly, Democrats are reluctant to tell the public, whose votes they need, quite how foolish they were to elect him.
