Tiktok isn’t yet worried about making it profitable. The rest of their business can subsidize this for now. Then they’ll turn on the money hose once they’ve acquired customers/people get accustomed to buying things from tiktok.

Haha sure so this instead of cutting back on the brown shirts.


The pursuit of profit, not actual profit.


I’m a NYC resident, and I pay property taxes. If this is the stick that will (hopefully) get us the carrot of a wealth tax, I’m all for it. If property taxes end up going up, and we can use it to make the city better with the services Mamdani wants to get going, well then let’s go. I will figure out how to pay the additional taxes somehow. With that said, let this be a bargaining chip. Working with the rest of NYC’s political class is like a bunch of toddlers. The best thing you can do is give them two options, one you want (which they won’t like) and one you don’t want (which they really won’t like). And make them pick. So they feel like they have agency, it’s their decision, don’tchaknow?
Wait which one is which?
