      Holy goddamn shit, that’s not even the funniest part of that! They estimate $3.6 billion in revenue by 2026? What fucking super-adderall-DMT-coke-meth-unicorn-fart drug are they smoking?

        If they install a dictator and ban all other social media and also ban not participating in social media, then yeah, that’s actually a pretty conservative estimate.

        They even mentioned that they estimated 15M monetized users and 10M recurring media subscriptions. So they’re estimating $1.2B per year for the next 3 years of those 25M users. That’s $48/mo between those 2 types of subscriptions. In the presentation they directly compared themselves to Twitter who charges $11/mo and Netflix, Apple, Disney+, and Amazon who all charge between $4.99 and $8.99 per month for basic service.

        That’s AT MOST $20/mo if all of those users paid for both. Which they dont even claim. So a competitive price for a Twitter blue alternative would net them ~$180M and ~$100M from media subscriptions. Where in the world are they getting the other $920M in their projections?

      From page 25 of this presentation:

      A graphic shows a Trump post on Truth social that reads.

      Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Ut pretium pretium tempor. Ut eget imperdiet neque.

      Which google translates to:

      The customer is very important, the customer will be followed by the customer. In order to pay the price in time. It does not need financing.

        Lorem ipsum is a pretty common placeholder text in publishing, to give an idea of what a font/page layout would look like.

        In other words, they thought it safer to use random placeholder gibberish for their presentation, than use Trump’s actual shitposts.
