I've been seeing this guy for ages and he usually has good takes. Also who TF is he?

As far as I can tell, he's basically a random web designer who got traction on Twitter with criticism of Trump. It's kind of impressive how prolific a dude can be out of nowhere.

He was basically one of Trump's reply guys when he was still on Twitter. Whenever Trump posted he was right under there with his take, and it gave off very resistance lib vibes.

Feels like the top Bluesky posters are all randos!

Jeff Tiedrich tweets out loud what we all feel in our hearts so we don't need to.

[–] Speculater@lemmy.world 19 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I think he's just an Internet person. Not even a celebrity outside of his online presence.

I'm a prolific internet person; how come my takes, hot or otherwise, never blow up? 😩

I guess it's a "right time, right place" thing.

I mean, you're posting on Lemmy, so even when you post interesting, well-thought-out or funny things, you've only got 1 to 500 people going "Oh, cool - I really like that".

People posting stuff on Twitter can get thousands of likes and reshares etc, and sometimes you get places like the BBC making "news" out of a Twitter post, spreading things amongst many more thousands (or millions?) of people.

About 8 billion people have never heard of you, but most of the people on Lemmy probably think you're ace.
