      Of course he knows, don’t think these people are stupid. Still it limited the amount of news about the Facebook Papers by giving the press something else to write about. This post proves it even more.

      And yet in the long run, they can make the name Meta stick, just by behaving like the renaming was a huge success and just ignoring everyone who calls the whole company Facebook.

      If you like it or not over time Facebook will be just one of their brands, also probably not even the most attractive one.

      They don’t care whether you call it Facebook or Meta.
      All they care about is that enough people were talking about the name change, so that they were distracted from the real controversy (which is the “Facebook Papers” revalations)

            The song was basically a diss track aimed at DMX among others. Not sure if you were being sarcastic and knew that, but just in case you didn’t. The previous section of the verse is “Motherfuck D, Motherfuck M”

              How is X Gon’ Give It To Ya a diss track aimed at X? Does he hate himself more than I do or something to write his own diss?
