He praised the fact that Trump was the first president to want to bring down big tech. Fuck trump but we can all agree big tech is monopolised by a few monster companies atm. Unfortunately Trump is now their biggest fans after they sucked his dick but praising him for, what seemed at the time, to be moves to break them up is fair. I don’t think this tweet is bad but if there is a tweet of Andy Yen praising Trump’s current stance towards big tech or other social issues then I will change my mind.
Wanting to make sure that Big Tech plays by the rules is one thing, but I still think it’s pretty crazy that he said Republicans now stand “for the little guys”. Even in December 2024 I think that’s a pretty crazy thing to say.
Imo, I thing they were in that they didn’t like big tech cause big tech didn’t like them. Many blocked Trump’s accounts after 6th of Jan. That being said, I also think it was naive to think Trump wouldn’t immediately change his mind if big tech changed their tune, pampered him, and made him feel like a little princess. I personally didn’t expect big tech to cozy up to Trump so hard and has been a big reason for me to remove big tech from my life where possible.

Good points. Alas it seems that Trump’s supposed care “for the little guys” was just a ploy for him to gain power. Although I guess there are many “little guys” that he never even pretended to care about: immigrants, Muslims, antifa, etc.
