The White House on Monday launched accounts on Metaās Threads service for President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, gaining a sizable following on an app that competes with Elon Muskās X.
Accounts on Threads were also established for the first lady and second gentleman as well as for the White House itself. Bidenās account racked up 2 million followers within an hour of its debut.
The Threads push comes after Musk last week called an antisemitic conspiracy theory āthe actual truthā on X to his 163 million listed followers. He also said some āJewish communitiesā promote āanti-whiteā messaging and views, calling out the Anti-Defamation League and minorities. White House officials repeatedly rebuked Musk for what they called āanti-semitic rhetoricā on X over the last week.
Several major advertisers including Apple and Disney subsequently paused their spending on X. Musk defended himself on Sunday, without apologizing or rescinding his statements.
If someone told you that you obtain 15 units per hour or 1 unit per hour and the number of units you acquire decide whether or not you exist or are thrown in prison for charges that have not been made up yet, which would you choose? Iād start with the 15, and if I have enough hours left, add in the 1 after.
Username checks out, I guess.
Contrary to your apparent worldview, however, joining Threads and Mastodon is not an either-or choice. Also, Iām pretty sure the Federal freakinā government would have plenty of manpower to set up a Mastodon account for Biden (or an entire mastodon.gov instance for that matter, which would be the right way to do it) if whoever is in charge of social media actually cared about doing so.
My comment specifically said Iād do both. Yours just assumed the man hours were automatically there.
Wait I forgot to be condescending like you. Apparently according to your world view, reading comprehension isnāt required, just attacking logical choices.
