Trump is serious: After he was banned by Twitter for repeated incitement to violence, the US president has now unceremoniously founded his own platform. The new short message service, which should go down in history as the first anti-social network, is called Trumper and only Trump is allowed to trump it.
“Social networks that block their users at some point when someone lies around boldly, incites them and calls for violence, violate the right to express my opinion,” said Trump at the presentation of Trumper in the White House. “At least that’s what I say because I don’t care about the truth and luckily at least nobody is standing next to me here and warning me that I am lying.”
Trumper has similar features to Twitter. The main differences are:
– Trump is the only user allowed to write messages. So he doesn’t have to fear any contradiction.
– Instead of tweets, the news is called Trumps Trumps. Trump therefore does not tweet tweets on his new platform, but trumps Trumps.
– There are no fact checks or bans.
– Every Trump automatically receives 23.1 trillion likes.
However, it remains questionable whether Trump is really happy with the new service. One of his first tweets reads: “Why do I get only 23.1 Quintillion likes? I deserve more! Trumper should fix this or I will ban it!”
