Billionaire Investor Urges Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk Time to Unfollow Hate and Start Profiting Positivity!
Bill Ackman Pleads with Zuckerberg and Musk Halt Hate-Mongering for Profit, Humanity's Fate at Stake
Fellow billionaire and Wall Street investor Bill Ackman has pointed his finger at the dynamic duo of Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk, along with TikTox CEO Shou Chew, accusing them of fueling divisions along racial, ethnic, religious, and generational lines. According to Ackman, these tech titans, driven by engagement-farming algorithms, have mastered the art of serving users a never-ending buffet of outrage to keep them scrolling. These algorithms, in all their glory, are exacerbating the hatred and enmity that already exists. It’s as if they are the cooks in a restaurant where the only dishes served are animosity, anger, and strife.
In a heartfelt plea to both Zuckerberg and Musk, Ackman implores them to tweak their programming codes to foster a spirit of unity and understanding among users. He warns that if we don’t address this issue promptly, humanity will be hurtling down a treacherous path to oblivion, from which there will be no return.
However, if we were to crown a winner in the battle of blame, Ackman would bestow that title upon TikTok, or should we say, the U.S. subsidiary of China’s ByteDance. In his eyes, TikTok should be banned, for it is unimaginable to have a foreign government controlling the minds of our future leaders. It’s like handing the keys to the kingdom to a distant monarch who may not have our best interests at heart.
Social media, my friends, is a powerful tool. It resembles a double-edged sword that can either build a utopian society or tear it apart. With its real-time microblogging capabilities, platforms like X and Threads disseminate information across the vast expanse of the internet faster than the speed of light. Sadly, this velocity leaves truth-checkers in the dust, as they desperately attempt to catch up with the rumors and falsehoods that have already gone viral.
Unlike traditional TV broadcasters bound by scrutiny and accountability, the content posted on social media platforms often lacks these constraints. Consequently, news organizations find themselves ensnared in the same frenzy, as they rush to report on stories that may have little foundation in truth. Remember the Al-Ahli hospital in Gaza? The one that was initially reported to have witnessed hundreds of deaths? Well, it turned out that these reports were more fictional than a unicorn riding a rainbow. The New York Times even had to issue an apology to its readers for perpetuating the falsehood.

If that wasn’t enough, the rise of deepfake AI tools has taken the game to a whole new level. These tools have mastered the art of deception, making it increasingly challenging for users to distinguish fact from fiction. The European Union, fearing the potential chaos this could unleash, has taken a stand. It has instituted a Digital Services Act, an attempt to impose some guardrails on the uncontrollable beast that is social media. Now, it has launched formal inquiries into the cases of X, Meta, and TikTok.
But wait, there’s more. Bill Ackman himself hasn’t shied away from using social media to vent his own frustrations. When the world stood witness to the tragic attacks by Hamas terrorists on Israeli civilians, Ackman, ever the firecracker, pushed for the doxxing and blacklisting of Ivy League students who disagreed with his political stances. It seems he’s attempting to wield the power of social media for his own agenda. A cautionary tale indeed.
So, my dear readers, as we navigate through these choppy social media waters, remember to be discerning, to question, and to seek the truth. For in this digitized battlefield of information, the line between reality and fiction becomes perilously blurred.
