4 min

Tim mocks people who'd pay half a million for Hunter Biden's paintings, then launches into the story of his satirical Instagram post as 'Osama Bin Laden' promoting 'Bomb Energy' drink, which got taken down, and rants about corporate cowardice to Twitter mobs.

In this bit9 moments
  • Tim posts a satirical fake pitch email to Instagram as a joke from Osama bin Laden launching an energy drink called Bomb Energy.
  • Instagram removes the clearly satirical post, which frustrates Tim about how capitalism supposedly works.
  • Tim contrasts old-school pressure campaigns by evangelical soccer moms to modern corporate capitulation to thousands of angry Twitter users.
  • Tim questions why billion-dollar corporations and hundred-million-dollar CEOs roll over in fear to social media pressure.
  • The full satirical email reads as a business pitch from Osama bin Laden to a VC named Frederick about Bomb Energy, with a planned 9/11 launch date.
  • The email's slogan is 'Bomb Energy: The Jews Run the World,' with focus group testing in the Arab world and plans to soften messaging for mainstream.
  • Tim addresses the VC as a "squishy bagel face" and "little zionist doughboy" in the email's closing pitch.
  • Instagram removed the post citing an algorithm detecting words, though Tim suspects it flagged the bin Laden reference or criticism of Zionism.
  • Instagram's removal reason was listed as "association with dangerous groups."
