Tiktok has denied that rumor

TikTok has called a report that China is considering allowing a sale of the social media company’s US operations to…
Oh look, it’s bullshit
Christ. This guy just can’t help himself.
Like this guy needs more companies.
Musk lost a lot of money on his last social media company purchase, Twitter, after spending some time in court trying to abort the purchase. I’m not at all sure that he wants to buy another social media company.
It was and never will be about how much it cost or lost.
It was always about the dismantling of lefty spaces, the control of speech, and a pulpit to announce his decrees as a disciple of baphomet and kek.
170 million Americans and all their data suddenly under his authority would be worth more than you could imagine. That worth would not be in any currency.

Hmm these “allies” appear to be unreliable, I wonder why
Twitter ended up inadvertently turning to his favor though. It has turned into even more of a hotbed for unchecked, uneducated and loud morons from alt-right/qanon/incel/republicans.
He gets TikTok though, it’ll just be another platform to blast full volume even more.
The guy is stupid rich, he could theoretically buy Facebook/Instagram/WhatsApp and Reddit if he wanted to. He’s just not choosing to at this time.

Poor understanding of US oligarchy detected
Poorer understanding of money and value was detected.
Elmo: hold my twitter!
With China/the CCP’s supposed financial struggles, selling TikTok to Elon for immediate liquidity does actually make sense.
huh just the fact that this could happen is a bit funny to see as it does signal that capitalism is a stronger force than authoritarianism
very odd
Edit:
Actually rethinking about this, I’m reconsidering the idea that instead of money the CCP’s probably wants the control of public perception, money doesn’t really make too much sense as selling TikTok would only provide short term cash unless they’re desperate… surely not right?You think the entire nation of China needs a small amount of money from Elon?
China is the largest holder of foreign reserves in the world, and has been for years. We’re talking trillions of dollars, not a few billion.
I mean yeah I agree, hence why I already said that after rethinking about it the factor of money doesn’t make sense for a potential reason to sell TikTok
Even in your edit you ended with uncertainty.
