31/ Goldman Sachs, all over the Trump administration now, was totally entangled with Russian Oligarchs who got them to help prop up fb
32/ ... until Goldman Sachs profited handsomely from a debacle of a very closed company IPO.
33/ Many Social Media companies were failing in the late 00's & a Russian oligarch chose Facebook & helped prop up their value.

37/ There is ZERO doubt social media & Facebook had an outsized power to manipulate public opinion with obvious #FakeNews
38/ Why are few questioning the motivations & debts Mark Zuckerberg personally has to Russian Oligarchs who helped make his IPO happen?
39/ The collusion with Russia to throw the election to Trump began in 2009 with Mark Zuckerberg & Russian steel Oligarch Alisher Usmanov.
40/ #MarkZuckerbergIsComplict & set the collusion ball rolling in 2009 when he sold out Facebook to an agent of Putin & Goldman Sachs.

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2007/nov/19/football.russia
47/ Zuckerberg's willingness to allow rampant manipulation of the news by Trump & Putin is not surprising when you look at his biz partner:

Ask Mark Zuckberg who he chose as his biz partner.

87/ In 2009 Facebook accepted a $200 million investment from a Russian oligarch via DST, Digital Sky Technologies.
Does not sound like a lot of cash now, but Facebook was a young, vulnerable private company.
Does not sound like a lot of cash now, but Facebook was a young, vulnerable private company.
88/ Facebook was able to avoid giving up a board seat, because unlike other offers, the Russians did not demand it.
The Russians thus boosted the valuation of Facebook, enriched employees eager to sell stock, & allowed Mark to keep overwhelming control.

89/ DST and the Russians may have cashed out when Facebook went public, but there is no doubt that Zuckerberg owes his ability to maintain such authoritarian personal control over Facebook to a Russian oligarch.
90/ The Russian Oligarchs, via DST, solidified Zuckerberg's personal fortune during the worst recession since the Great Depression.
Zuckerberg used this individual control & wealth to squash competition, to buy up competitors.
