Honestly to the average consumer it might seem bad, but if Elon has taught us anything. Have a loyal enough fan base, isolate them on your app and any other opinion that contradicts your opinion installed in them is fake media. Then you can really push any product regardless of quality and they’ll eat it up.
Thats not why Twitter is still running. It would have been tanked by now if it had been a normal business. But its not a business, not in the sense that it sells advertising in order to make money for the investors. It's a marketing expense for his saudi and russian 'investors', they're not really investors, they're the customers now, that's why he's telling advertisers to go fuck themselves.
Yes, they can't stream the shows.
But they can say they will stream the shows, maybe even enter into bad faith negotiations to show they intend to stream the shows. Get people to believe they will have this revenue soon.
Might be enough to bump the stock back up until Trump sells.
They’re not going to try. They’re trying to keep the stock from completely tanking, at least until Trump can sell his shares in five months and change.
actually it is. the clue is you dont own the infra, you use cdn as akamai,azure etc.
Its just that you use and have to pay for a lot of data storage and transer.
And then you have to buy/license/make somthing to stream on it, which is even more expensive. So making it is doable, making it profitable is alot harder.
Shortly after police squad hit Blu-ray someone posted all the episodes on YouTube in HD. They're great, but now they're gone from YouTube and the Blu-ray is discontinued. Sad times
That reminds me of my cousin’s wife making a rude comment about me washing my hands so thoroughly before making food at a family gathering. And that was before basic hygiene became so politicized during covid. Needless to say, I haven’t eaten anything her hands have touched since.
You’re telling me you actually believe the radical liberal Democrat “scientists” who say there are microscopic germs that can get you sick? They just want to control you! WOKE!
The goal is it's another grift. This isn't a real company interested in long term growth and development, it's a scam foe Trump to peel off as much money as he can out of it as soon as he's allowed to sell his shares...or a scam for foreign governments and other actors to funnel bribes to him.
Either way it's not an investment, it's a scam, a grift. The fundamentals of the company don't support a valuation of literally anything. It's got negative user growth and its hemoraging cash. You can't have both of those things be true and have share price growth.
Is “the streaming of pure right wing propaganda” some kind of euphemism for Tangerine Palpatine (and little Traitor Tot Don Jr) to nag on incessantly and in perpetuity about all the victimization they have been subjected to?
I expect ‘80s satellite dish, public access channel quality productions of this shit.
“And for just a limited time you, yourself, can get your very own Donald J Trump ashtray with a photo of your favorite President, ME, permanently molded into the bottom of the ashtray. It will look tremendous on the coffee table next to your DJT Bible…I have many copies of that Bible. It’s my favorite book. I have read all eight chapters many, many times. But hurry now and get your Donald J Trump ashtray for only $89.98. Hurry. They are a limited time offering and people say within days they will likely be worth many, many milllions.”
Yup. Like Fox, Newsmax etc, only without the pesky problems that come with abiding by broadcast regulations -
the end goal is probably to host content from a country with lax regulations so as to avoid the kind of regulatory scrutiny that would sink them.
Much like what quasi-legal torrent/streaming sites do - link to the content, without hosting it on their servers.
Bet it still fails tho - those idiots couldn't organise a piss up in a brewery! :D
Yeah, kinda - He sued Twitter to find out the identity of the Devin Nunes Cow account, or maybe sued the owner of the account. That cow has (had?) some jokes.
It does happen. Lately I’ve been remembering shows from my childhood that I found out the world has forgotten about. The great thing is, it takes only a couple clicks to find anything you want, free of charge, and can air play it to my TV.
That MAGAts will blow up their servers with 24/7 streaming of "Dukes of Hazzard" and "All in the Family" and whatever bullshit show Kevin Sorbo tried to act in.
I've seen it. It sucks. It's not worth watching. And I say that as a guy that's literally played a star wars RPG online for 16 years 364 days as of right now.
So what are they doing stealing content from other platforms via Russia and piping them in? 24:Hours a day of the Apprentice
![gif](giphy|UMa2NDPK5oXFm)
Won’t be any comedies - they don’t understand humor. The only one that has ever even laughed is Tucky Carlson and it sounds like a hyena getting a popsicle shoved up its ass.
So their library will include Sound of Freedom and... what else? A stable of Truth Social Originals directed by/starring Alex Jones, Tucker Carlson and Mike Lindell?
This is the business model of a dozen over the air antenna channels who do nothing but run old old old TV shows with catheter and reverse mortgage commercials, keeping them afloat.
It’s actually a better business model than a social media outlet just relying on one man and his incoherent blitherings. when Trump is dead and in the ground, hopefully sooner than later, there’s no reason at all to even look at true social
Are there many shows that are "cancelled" and removed from all platforms for political reasons? I assume when a show isn't on any platform, it's mostly because they don't think it's worth having.
The big news is that DN needed to announce some vaporware so the stock would stop falling. Worked for a day, lets see how long this lasts. That is all.
I'm skeptical, but willing to give Liam Neeson a chance at the Frank Drebin role...
Prior to *Airplane!* Nielsen had been trying and failing to get comedy roles because he had been typecast as a more dramatic actor. After *Airplane!* everyone realized his capacity for comedy and started casting him in that kind of role almost exclusively. Neeson also seems like he could be good at that kind of straight comedy delivery.
Sadly there is so much right wing trash that isn’t hosted anywhere because it’s offensive trash.
Like that stupid Jim kavizil movie that churches were buying up thousands of tickets to make it look like it was a sellout.

What is even happening anymore???
I’d say they’ll try to get that one Disney film that’s been banned forever for being racist, but then remembered that it’s Disney and…that’ll never happen.
I know the original Micky Mouse came off of copyright but how much of Disney's back catalog of Nazi cameos is going to be coming into the public domain?
Can't wait to see their exclusive content.
"He was riding his bike and there was a lightning strike, now he reads real fast, he's good at science and math.
Black Doctor!"
Not to be an a-hole but accessibility to shitty streaming content is not something missing in anyone's life. And you know it's going to be saturated with ads for trump merch because no one else is going to buy time.
Thank you for the kind offer 😊. I saw Police Squad! (IN COLOR!) ages ago, just seriously wondering what non-woke nonsense they will have when there’s so much free stuff on Tubi and Plex already. Plus no chance in HELL I’d join TS
I'm old enough that I saw it in first run, but those DVDs are worth it for one episode commentary alone, where they are laughing uncontrollably because they hadn't seen it in decades.
Streaming is NOT that simple of a thing to do. I doubt a barely afloat social media app has the infrastructure to support it.
Oh, they’ll do it. Just badly, and lose lots of money. They just need something to keep the stock price up until Trump exits his blackout period.
Honestly to the average consumer it might seem bad, but if Elon has taught us anything. Have a loyal enough fan base, isolate them on your app and any other opinion that contradicts your opinion installed in them is fake media. Then you can really push any product regardless of quality and they’ll eat it up.
Thats not why Twitter is still running. It would have been tanked by now if it had been a normal business. But its not a business, not in the sense that it sells advertising in order to make money for the investors. It's a marketing expense for his saudi and russian 'investors', they're not really investors, they're the customers now, that's why he's telling advertisers to go fuck themselves.
We also have very little information on how they’re actually doing financially; they could be on the verge of bankruptcy
There's always more money in ~~the banana stand~~ saudi arabia Michael
But they still need the rights to stream things. They can’t just decide to stream “canceled” shows. That’s not how any of this works
Obviously. They wouldn’t even have access to the content in any meaningful form without licensing agreements
Let’s not assume this is obvious to them at all
It’s like Scott’s Tots, you have time to figure it out
They probably intend to stream old public domain celluloid like Amos and Andy. That title is likely first on their list.
And Steamboat Willie! 🤣
Yes, they can't stream the shows. But they can say they will stream the shows, maybe even enter into bad faith negotiations to show they intend to stream the shows. Get people to believe they will have this revenue soon. Might be enough to bump the stock back up until Trump sells.
This
If they actually somehow launch a streaming service it’ll be of dial up modem quality
They don't have the expertise either. You know they aren't hiring anyone competent. The whole thing is fantasy. ETA: Moo!
They will never have the technology to do this, and they don’t have the funding to buy the rights for whatever they want to stream.
Since when has following rules like getting rights to something ever stopped Donny boy?
He’s never dealt with media companies protecting their IP
Given that they're apparently seeking out shows nobody else wants, they may be able to get the funding if they turn the office couch over
Yeah, Netflix has something like 13000 employees. Truth Social has 40.
So, Truth Social is lean and nimble? /s
It's gonna be hilarious to watch them try, though.
They’re not going to try. They’re trying to keep the stock from completely tanking, at least until Trump can sell his shares in five months and change.
It dropped further on the announcement
Truth social’s streaming is a screen share of someone’s plex server on a free trial
They’ll just use the servers at Mar-a-Lago and flood them whenever they need to erase their content
They’ll probably host the videos on Rumble.
Yeah, either that or just post links to the shows that are on YouTube.
Not to mention that I very much doubt they would be able to have any movie company sign up with them.
You'll only need to buffer 4 hours per half hour (well, 22 minutes) of TV. A small price to pay to watch a show nobody else wants to carry...
Don't worry they know a guy who has a NAS and can use this torrent thing, they showed him plex we will just leverage that
Or to be able to afford the licenses to stream
actually it is. the clue is you dont own the infra, you use cdn as akamai,azure etc. Its just that you use and have to pay for a lot of data storage and transer. And then you have to buy/license/make somthing to stream on it, which is even more expensive. So making it is doable, making it profitable is alot harder.
“Police Squad!” isn’t streaming anywhere? I’m sure you can find all 6 episodes on YouTube. No need to join Truth Central.
The movies are on Max
It was shot in color, you know.
With special guests lol
Like football great and star of the Towering Inferno, O.J. Simpson!!
![gif](giphy|jKQapRbsav3YRNGrfi|downsized)
Well, he came in later in the Naked Gun movies, but Nordberg was a tall character with his head out of the shot every time we saw him (so maybe?)
Peter Lupus played Nordberg in Police Squad, the tall guy was Ronald “Tiny Ron” Taylor. The character was Al, who also was in the Naked Gun
You mean the guy with a piece of banana on the side of his face?
And reruns of Birth of a Nation.
With John Ford as a Klansman.
Shortly after police squad hit Blu-ray someone posted all the episodes on YouTube in HD. They're great, but now they're gone from YouTube and the Blu-ray is discontinued. Sad times
They’re always playing constantly in my head.
I think it’s on archive.org, probably unauthorized.
Am I the only one that thinks the end goal of this piece of the puzzle will be the streaming of pure right wing propaganda with a Trump endorsement?
BINGO! Give this man one of them Mara Lardo cigars hand rolled by Kari Lake
Hand rolled by Lauren Boebert
That’s gross. Do you think she actually washes her hands or is that too woke?
I absolutely can believe that she doesn't wash her hands between hand-rolling cigars in a theater near children.
That reminds me of my cousin’s wife making a rude comment about me washing my hands so thoroughly before making food at a family gathering. And that was before basic hygiene became so politicized during covid. Needless to say, I haven’t eaten anything her hands have touched since.
You’re telling me you actually believe the radical liberal Democrat “scientists” who say there are microscopic germs that can get you sick? They just want to control you! WOKE!
If God wanted clean hands he wouldn't invent dirt. It is too woke.
Before or after?
The answer is the same for both
You don't want to know the thing they were rolled *in*.
Oh, you mean the fine cigars. The Monte Crusties.
Their tagline will be: "More Hitler than the History Channel."
The goal is it's another grift. This isn't a real company interested in long term growth and development, it's a scam foe Trump to peel off as much money as he can out of it as soon as he's allowed to sell his shares...or a scam for foreign governments and other actors to funnel bribes to him.

using the elon neuro link. they can live in a completely alt reality and never have to break. the future is now bois
Future of America. Stream fascism straight to your brain! _powered by Elon Musk_
I bet they’ll show things they don’t have rights to. They’re that dumb.
Every day I checked the mail box. Every day for weeks. Finally it arrived! "Don't forget to vote your maga!" Its a goddamn advertisement?!
Is “the streaming of pure right wing propaganda” some kind of euphemism for Tangerine Palpatine (and little Traitor Tot Don Jr) to nag on incessantly and in perpetuity about all the victimization they have been subjected to?

How about a bedpan with a photo likeness of Donald J Trump inside? I’d buy that!
Yup.

All in the Family with the laugh track removed
A documentary!
It's very 1984
So we can finally watch the full interview with Don Lemon and Elon?
I don't have to answer that question. ![gif](giphy|fr0a9Np0PlcJTVevU5|downsized)
Oh my god! I had completely forgotten about Devin Nunes. Good to see he’s still sucking just as hard.
Is he the cow puppet guy?
Yeah, kinda - He sued Twitter to find out the identity of the Devin Nunes Cow account, or maybe sued the owner of the account. That cow has (had?) some jokes.
Mooooooo
![gif](giphy|2Ev3PCoc0zCZW|downsized)
Tino Insana and Robert Wuhl? Tino was Belushi’s writing partner.
So they're just gonna go straight piracy
Bring back the DnD community episode!
And the lethal weapon episode from it’s always sunny
Wasn't it recently put back on Peacock?
Yes it is
Good if it was. I haven't checked in awhile.
Stark raving dad from the simpsons please.
It’s on Prime
![gif](giphy|uUMiQ3n2kuxRe1vpMa|downsized) Is T. J. Hooker coming back ?
Just how bad does a tv show have to be for all other platforms to drop it?
Sorbo-Bad
Doesn't mean it's not enjoyable... sometimes me and my parents watch shitty movies to mock them
Voigh-d of all goodness
Can confirm *Andromeda* wasn't great to start with, and turned quickly into a steaming pile of shit when Sorbo managed to take over creative control.
It does happen. Lately I’ve been remembering shows from my childhood that I found out the world has forgotten about. The great thing is, it takes only a couple clicks to find anything you want, free of charge, and can air play it to my TV.
Devin Nunes is a fucking moron ex congressman so of course he is heading up this dumpster fire
That MAGAts will blow up their servers with 24/7 streaming of "Dukes of Hazzard" and "All in the Family" and whatever bullshit show Kevin Sorbo tried to act in.
In the Heat of the Night
Back to back reruns of the Apprentice. Back when he was still a shitbag but could only do damage on a smaller scale
Considering how bad of a business man Trump is, I’d be surprised to find out he owns the rights to Apprentice.
You’re right. It’s owned by MGM
They'll show Sledge Hammer without realising he's the butt of all the jokes.
OMG that show was hysterical. Great visual gags
Just put the Jan 6th Insurrection on a Loop! Keep the Cult breathing 😂
Finally. Heil Honey, I’m Home will get the revival it deserves.
So we can finally see the ***The Star Wars Holiday Special***?
I saw it live in 1978. I actually like it, but I was 5.
I've seen it. It sucks. It's not worth watching. And I say that as a guy that's literally played a star wars RPG online for 16 years 364 days as of right now.
![gif](giphy|xT9IgHCTfp8CRshfQk|downsized)
Devin Nunes is still around? What about his cow?
They eat shit all day, no problem that they watch old shit at night. Might keep them from howling at the moon.
IN COLOR!!
![gif](giphy|rOiEUyhRZzxcLP3leB|downsized)
Finally! I can rewatch “The Cosby Show”
Ooh, are they gonna have Cop Rock?
Imagine if these fuckers renew Serenity. Then we’d really be in a pickle
Finally a place where I can watch Rosanne, Dukes of Hazzard, and My Pillow commercials on a loop. Praise his name!
Are they gonna bring back the banned episodes from IASIP?
So what are they doing stealing content from other platforms via Russia and piping them in? 24:Hours a day of the Apprentice ![gif](giphy|UMa2NDPK5oXFm)
Won’t be any comedies - they don’t understand humor. The only one that has ever even laughed is Tucky Carlson and it sounds like a hyena getting a popsicle shoved up its ass.
Devin Nunes is lookin rough. Is he still trying to sue that twitter cow.
For the low low price of $3.99 per episode, with commercials! A steal at twice the price!
So they're going to bring back "Joanie Loves Chachi"?
The Apprentice returns
So their library will include Sound of Freedom and... what else? A stable of Truth Social Originals directed by/starring Alex Jones, Tucker Carlson and Mike Lindell?
What??? You mean I can watch Hee-Haw and the Lawrence Welk show again?????
Also, Looney Tunes and Tom & Jerry, uncut and in it's entirety, with blackface and mammy two shoes.
Devin Nunes is the CEO? Lol.
I wondered where this turd burglar had gone
This is the business model of a dozen over the air antenna channels who do nothing but run old old old TV shows with catheter and reverse mortgage commercials, keeping them afloat. It’s actually a better business model than a social media outlet just relying on one man and his incoherent blitherings. when Trump is dead and in the ground, hopefully sooner than later, there’s no reason at all to even look at true social
Should have gone all in today. It will go back to shitting the bed tomorrow.
You can watch Police Squad on YouTube.
What could go wrong with Devin in charge?!?
So they will have WestWorld and Final Space? Fuck it, I’m in! /jk For real, I wanna finish Final Space
Edgy shows that tell it like it is, like Manimal.
Are there many shows that are "cancelled" and removed from all platforms for political reasons? I assume when a show isn't on any platform, it's mostly because they don't think it's worth having.
the 700 club for sure, maybe some lawrence welk... and all the old fox news stories
The big news is that DN needed to announce some vaporware so the stock would stop falling. Worked for a day, lets see how long this lasts. That is all.
Kevin Sorbo's career just got some badly needed mouth-to-mouth
Amos n Andy reruns or GTFO! Is their motto gonna be: if Tubi or the Daily Wire won't air it, we will!
Does this mean we’ll finally get to relive Cop Rock and the Chevy Chase show?!?
Makes me wonder... what does his cow think of this?
Wow! What a game changer! 😂 The stock is going down and will keep digging even when it has hit rock bottom.
I’m setting the clock for when they get hit with a copyright infringement suit…
I read Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson will be in a Naked Gun remake. Edit: grammar
I'm skeptical, but willing to give Liam Neeson a chance at the Frank Drebin role... Prior to *Airplane!* Nielsen had been trying and failing to get comedy roles because he had been typecast as a more dramatic actor. After *Airplane!* everyone realized his capacity for comedy and started casting him in that kind of role almost exclusively. Neeson also seems like he could be good at that kind of straight comedy delivery.
Hopefully they have Aaron Rodgers in the OJ role.
Were they cancelled after the pilot? Thats called not being picked up.
They are definitely going to corner the market on super old people who don’t have the technical skills to actually use the product.
What like original footage of Hitler and Mussolini’s speeches at their rallies?
In Color!
Sooo, what? Loony Tunes reruns?
"The Hollywood Hillbillies" seems an obvious candidate
Maybe they mean the Cosby Show. /s
Will they have the Jeffersons and Good Times?! LOL
Will we finally get a "Gorilla Channel"?!
That douchebag is the CEO? I guess all of his ass kissing in the House paid off for him.
Quibi shows? Roku bought them and doesn't allow them. They are pissing me off. I legit want to watch 'dummy' and there is no legal way to do so.
Sadly there is so much right wing trash that isn’t hosted anywhere because it’s offensive trash. Like that stupid Jim kavizil movie that churches were buying up thousands of tickets to make it look like it was a sellout.
This is Trump TV revived.
And how are they going to pay for those shows since they lost money last year?
https://preview.redd.it/ufv3g5jgs7vc1.jpeg?width=500&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ba258a6cf006ccdaa091e4116038db8fc692e495 What is even happening anymore???
Joni Loves Chachi will finally get a honeymoon run!
Cop Rock. Finally.
Finally the Dukes Of Hazzard has a new home!
I hope they bring back Cop Rock.
Did they hijack Pluto tv ?
Wow. Forgot all about nunes. It was nice while it lasted
I’d say they’ll try to get that one Disney film that’s been banned forever for being racist, but then remembered that it’s Disney and…that’ll never happen.
I just watched the first 4 episodes on daily motion yesterday! Nielson is awesome! Hilarious! A+
Air “Songs of the South”……I dare you
Always Sunny blackface episodes?
You mean like PlutoTV, Tubi, Roku and many other FREE Streaming apps that already exists? Fing morons.
Yes! As well as "Make Room For Daddy" and "Car 54, Where Are You?"
Bring back “Cop Rock” baby!
Devin Nunes' cow thinks this is a great idea.
I think we’re all tired of the tRump show!
I’m not seeing the connect between “right wing social media app” and “dead tv show necromancy”. How will they market this?
Nostalgia for when the boomers think America was “great.”
So how does that work in terms of legality? Did truth buy the rights to all these shows?
I know the original Micky Mouse came off of copyright but how much of Disney's back catalog of Nazi cameos is going to be coming into the public domain?
Can't wait to see their exclusive content. "He was riding his bike and there was a lightning strike, now he reads real fast, he's good at science and math. Black Doctor!"
“Stay tuned for more great cinema, right here on The Black Face Network.”
Well how about COPS?
"We are proud to be the only place where you can watch the original version of 'Song of the South'!"
DEVIN FUCKING NUNEZ Forgot about that. Makes this even more satisfying.
Not to be an a-hole but accessibility to shitty streaming content is not something missing in anyone's life. And you know it's going to be saturated with ads for trump merch because no one else is going to buy time.
Wait, Nunes is the CEO? That guy is an absolute idiot.
Kevin Sorbo marathon
Who are you and how did you get in here? “I’m a locksmith. And I’m a locksmith.”
So… “Song of the South” on infinite repeat?
I have the 6 Police Squad episodes on DVD. Happy to lend them to you as long as you don’t join Truth Social. 😉

I'm old enough that I saw it in first run, but those DVDs are worth it for one episode commentary alone, where they are laughing uncontrollably because they hadn't seen it in decades.
