      > “Today, an oligarchy is taking shape in America of extreme wealth, power, and influence that literally threatens our entire democracy, our basic rights and freedoms, and a fair shot for everyone to get ahead,” Biden said.

      > Biden emphasized that “social media giving up on fact-checking” could pose a great danger to the freedom of information and the pursuit of truth in the U.S., adding that “the free press is crumbling” and giving way to an “avalanche of misinformation and disinformation enabling the abuse of power.”

      > “The truth is smothered by lies told for power and for profit,” Biden said. “We must hold the social platforms accountable to protect our children and our families and our very democracy from the abuse of power.”

      kinda infuriating that all these ‘warnings’ could’ve been dealt with while he was still in office.

      Captain obvious admits the role of president has no power to fix the system

      This is going to accelerate much faster than ever before. We have these tech billionaires who are wiling to just do anything Trump wants. Disinformation will be common place and the truth will cease to exist if it doesn’t benefit the incoming administration

      man if only there was something the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES could do instead of giving warnings.

      Thanks for the warning Joe, I guess it’s better to warn us while going out the door, then actually try fixing it. Personally I blame cornpop

      Every day Biden is like ‘man someone should really do something about all this’

      The SEC should do something about those short sellers who are also market makers, seems as if the SEC didn’t get to do their job yet

      He was either president or VP for 12 of the last 16 years. Come on man, perhaps you should have had this concern before your last week in power.

      A warning about something that’s been happening for a decade now and Democrats have lost two major elections due to it. Great to see the party on top of this pressing issue, lol.

      TikTok brainwashed a generation to vote for Trump like he was a rapper, or actor who was a “bad boy”, because it was cool voting for the bad guy.

      They have no idea what he stands for, does, wants to do, what he says. The post-election interview with tons of them is horrifying with them discovering who he actually is.

      Lmfao this is so rich considering the state of Reddit 😂😂

    23. Sandoffston on

      It’s been like this for a long time.

      Warning came a bit too late buddy

    25. NewTurkeyDinner on

      Tired of lectures and warnings from Democrats. The first 2 years, they could have unified and pushed thing through Congress and as usual they resorted to infighting and did next to nothing.

    26. AlwaysNipping on

      Sounds like he’s admitting what happened during his own presidency…

    27. PixelSquish on

      Thanks Joe, so then you’re going to go the actual inauguration of these literal enemies of our state, who’s inauguration will literally be making a mockery of the institution of the Presidency, and the Constitution, and so you are going to attend to give it legitimacy. You fucking dolt.

      Kinda like when Dwight D Eisenhower warned about the Military Industrial Complex and we did nothing about it?

    30. Deep_Space52 on

      Good lord Joe, welcome to the party.

      Many of us wish you’d had the good sense to read the room earlier, and get out of the way sooner, so the free world wouldn’t now be dealing with another 4 years of an infantile reality-TV caricature with access to nuclear codes.

    33. NoNameNoWerries on

      And you failed to do a goddamn thing about it in four years. Good job, Joe. Millard Fillmore is looking forward to finally having company whistling through the graveyard.

      Big tech will laugh on the way to becoming trillionaires. America had a good run but algorithms won, not truth or facts.

    36. cleverinspiringname on

      Right, yeah, we’ll keep an eye on that. Should be some glaring hints before it’s too late to stop it. Maybe we should look into overturning citizens united sometime in the near 20 years ago.

      Musk proved the concept. You can hold the countries narrative in the palm of your hand if you control social media.

      They’re gonna go all in on it and keep spreading misinformation to breed hatred and stoke the culture war.
