“Without TikTok, you can make Facebook bigger, and I consider Facebook to be an enemy of the people,” Trump, who was formerly U.S. president between 2017 and 2021, said in a CNBC TV interview on Monday.
I am disappointed that they go through the whole article, and never point out that Trump runs his own social media platform, and that might give him a conflict of interest when speaking about Social Media companies. Is Facebook really an enemy of the people, or is it just a competitor of Truth Social?

Agreed.
Moreover, any corporate run, non open-source, centralized social media platform is an enemy of the people.
This includes TikTok, Twitter, all of Meta, Truth Social, Reddit, Next-door, and so on.
Yeah Trump is technically correct here, but didn’t arrive at his correctness by means of truth. Rather, he arrived by means of self serving agenda as always.
Facebook is garbage and so are all the other privatized, data harvesting, privacy violating social media platforms.
It should also be stated that the site originally was running Mastodon with a new skin to try and hide it. They have since acknowledged it and posted the source code required on the Legal page apparently (according to Wikipedia).
