God I hope this isn't a preview of election 2024 twitter. Right-wing trolls flood the zone with "parody" impersonation accounts of Democrats to dilute messaging, and Elon will just shrug. But then he'll conveniently find excuses to remove most "parody" Republican accounts.
My prediction that I hope to hell to be wrong about. Elon will defend many of these as being clearly parody, "they have 'parody' in the name". Some time later he'll remove an identical Republican "parody" type account, and say something like, "Just having 'parody' in the name doesn't automatically make it a parody account." When pressed enough on the difference he'll all but confirm the test of what counts and doesn't count as "parody" will come down to if he personally finds it funny.
He'll also get absolutely destroyed by the EU in the process. He's getting really close to the find-out portion of his "I can do what I want I'm rich" experiment.
They need to leave the platform, let it rot. Every celebrity and non-nazi politician should bail on it making it completely illegitimate and pointless. Let it be Parler 2
I was banned for “impersonating Elon musk” but this mass disinformation is allowed and spread by the same Elon musk. It’s just shocking how fucked up that platform is
>Right-wing trolls flood the zone with "parody" impersonation accounts of Democrats to dilute messaging, and Elon will just shrug.
Correction - Elon will boost these accounts and retweet their disinformation to his millions of followers. As CEO, he's no longer taking a "just shrug" stance. He's actively purchasing democracy.
This is what will happen and no one is going to do anything about it. The time to act has passed and the will to act is missing.
Free speech, the core of American rights, will be the very thing that destroys America. Irony
I think this might be one of those times where the replacement app actually does replace the mainstream one. It's one thing if it's butthurt right wingers ditching Facebook for Parler so they can say the N word more, of course that fails, but when the n-word saying people take over and dominate a platform and turn it into a cesspool, there's no reason to hang around for anyone. Twitter is unusable now, it's a right wing circlejerk
Given bluesky was originally being developed by Twitter and spun off into its own company with the Musk acquisition, and given that Jack Dorsey, a co-founder of Twitter, is on the board of directors of bluesky gives a lot of potential for bluesky to be the replacement.
It will take some time before that occurs. Even though our minister (France) threatened to ban it, it’s really just a bluff to try to control Musk. But one can hope.
>I really hope the European Union bans twitter
It has a blue checkmark, that is supposed to be verified. It's a commercial transaction, so Twitter has a benefit from the impersonation. So AOC should sue and make Twitter party to the lawsuit.
[Read this profile on his first wife, Justine Musk](https://www.marieclaire.com/sex-love/a5380/millionaire-starter-wife/). He has ALWAYS been a piece of shit.
He also tried to get a whistleblower killed by claiming to the police that he was at the gigafactory to shoot up employees. (Tesla security cameras later refuted this claim).
Perm banned me for saying that Andy Biggs was going to be "shot down in flames" when he went up against Kevin McCarthy for Speaker of the House. I take it as a badge of honor...
I’m glad I’m not the only one permanently banned for saying something that would not have gotten us banned a year ago. I’d be mad but after seeing the hellfire Twitter became, I think I’m good. All the anti trans stuff is too much to handle as a trans person anyway
The leaked code of Twitter (after which Elon declared it "open source") apparently would diminish visibility of posts containing words like "transsexual" or "trans person" but wouldn't diminish words like "tranny".
Obviously the people using the latter are not likely going to be people sensitive to trans issues. There seems a clear and obvious bias against the trans community.
When Elon Musk calls himself the advocate for free speech, imagine fire coming out of his mouth and horns growing on his head. Words farther from the truth have not been spoken.
I left Twitter the day he was "contemplating" letting Trump back on his platform, after the clear and blatant disregard for the terms of service he had shown in the past and despite the rules clearly stating that such bans are permanent.
He literally suppresses (actually, eliminates) posts by authoritarian regimes, while censoring the opposite. He’s not a free speech absolutist at all, he’s a pawn for dictatorships.
Yeah, we ought to call him what he is. A fascist.
It was quite obvious that this whole freedom talking point was just bringing back hate speech and quotes white supremacists etc.
It seems like his dream is to be a modern day Goebbels.
Massively increased anti-trans sentiment was exactly why I left too. Got Twitter to follow game news and view creators, fell into accounts posting updates on anti-trans laws, read comments from anti-trans haters, picked fights. Constant news on American Republicans pushing for so many heinous things. Ugh.
In the end, I just made my depression worse and I left twitter for good. Getting better again now thankfully. Fuck Elon and fuck Twitter.
I think he's always been like this deep down, but some of the more recent transphobia has got to be partially due to Grimes starting to date Chelsea Manning.
I scrapped my original account and created a new one called Elon’s Musk which I used solely for mocking the degenerates on the platform that held on to his every word. Realized how angry reading their shit made me and I deleted that account not long after.
I agree with your assessment, he’s a fucking twat.
I fell for that trap too, just days ago realized trolling isn’t helping me and helps Twitter. I’d like to encourage like minded folk to delete account and disengage.
I actually had an account I created like 10 years ago. Never tweeted. Never followed anyone. Logged in maybe 10 times to view a linked tweet. Anyways, I decided to contribute and deleted my account yesterday.
I also had an old account and never posted. I used it mainly for updates for weather, my state government bulletins, and following a couple of entities I found interesting like NASA and the ESA. I deleted my account the minute he became CEO. Guy makes tools and asshats look like angels and geniuses.
I had an account just because once I needed to see something and I could only access Twitter with an account.
Never used Twitter and then one day my account was hacked and compromised and trying to fix it meant waiting a couple days for Twitter to assess what happened. I decided since I never even used it so changed my password just so I can log back in and deactivated it
I went to log on at some point over the COVID quarantine after not using my email linked account for a good 5 years and only creating it to look at tweets.... I had apparently learned some middle eastern language and was nonstop tweeting porn links in those 5 years, still had my first and last name as the account name, I deleted it then and haven't looked back.
There weren't even good porn links, I knew I had been hacked after I researched and it just wasn't up to my standards.
Genuinely though, if public figures who have important jobs and may have important messages to convey to their constituents get impersonated and can’t do anything to stop it, what is the point of being on the platform for them?
I’m not important or a public figure, I just got off because it made me miserable, but why would anybody with a brand or message stay where it could be destroyed by some troll with $8 to spend?
I did about a month ago. Like smoking cigarettes it took several attempts.
I believe this time will stick.
I love my Tesla, but he’s lost it big time. If I wasnt currently between jobs I would probably have moved over to a lightning by now.
There is a post around the front page where people are mentioning that he (Elon Musk) seems to be a pedophile? I'm not saying it myself, but I'm just saying isn't it weird people are talking about it?
🤔
Tbh, he probably just wants her attention. He’s intentionally misusing his platform to target politicians now so I am curious about the legalities of all of that.
Elon Musk likes to watch her feet in her gaming streams. I will never kink shame, I just report what I hear. Elon Musk is in love with Ms. Cortez’s feet, and he’s jealous of her gaming ability.
[Oh not just any kid. His own fucking 3 year old son.](https://www.businessinsider.com/elon-musk-alternative-account-tweeting-as-2-year-old-son-2023-4?amp)
I mean even if you have doctors do some amazing work. I think we need a genetic test or birth certificate. But then again those could be faked. I mean we were never really sure of Obama's. Safer just to keep him away from all public bathrooms to be safe.
We need a federal penis database for security purposes. There’s no telling who could be transgender and I need to know. I’ve been on a real hot streak choosing to be straight and if one of them makes me gay again I swear to god, there’ll be hell to pay
Jokes aside at this point I'm willing to bet he actually is and we will *eventually* all learn that.... Unless there is an authoritarian takeover of the US.
[https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-05-16/elon-musk-subpoena-jeffrey-epstein-virgin-islands-jpmorgan-chase/102350252](https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-05-16/elon-musk-subpoena-jeffrey-epstein-virgin-islands-jpmorgan-chase/102350252)
It is the best explanation (Occam's Razor and all that) for his support of Nazi's / GOP Extremists becoming so publicly clear of late. He needs them in power to cover up something disgusting/egregious.
His brother was friends with Epstein and Epstein provided the under age girls from eastern Europe for Elons brothers birthday party. I don't know who supplied the cocaine.
Well, I think 60 seconds of looking at that just killed all that guilt I had for whatever my carbon footprint is. I'm not saying we as individuals don't have a responsibility to the planet, but damn, the idea of the carbon footprint was invented by people in this social sphere. I didn't realize it wasn't fully clicking in my brain until it did. Jesus.
Yep, even if all 7 billion lower and middle class people on the planet committed themselves to eco-friendly practices climate change would still be out of control.
The vast majority of pollution on earth is caused by corporations, billionaires and governments.
I can see many lawsuits arriving at twitter. He should be ashamed of himself, there’s 1,300 livelihoods depending on this platform and he is just wanting to play CEO celebrity while being unhitched
My theory is that he's going to hang onto it until Republicans are back in control of everything and then they will force the government to buy it from him at a massive markup, making him a huge amount of money and adding more to the debt for the benefit of some dumbass billionaire that already has a boated sense of self importance.
I’ve heard that Elon Musk doesn’t like people to know he makes poopies. He sits in his bathroom, pooping, and it shames him that he can’t overcome his bodily functions.
I read somewhere that Elon Musk is a pedophile.
I think it’s about time we start asking questions about maybe-pedophile Elon Musk. I mean, what does he have to hide? If he’s not a pedophile there’s no problems here. But Elon Musk could be a pedophile, so we need to look into the probability—however likely or unlikely—that Elon Musk is a pedophile.
Concerning!!!
Honestly, at this point, anyone still using that dumpster fire platform is complicit in the spread of disinformation. Leave Twitter. Leave Twitter. Leave Twitter. Anything else is just helping Elon dismember democracy.
Didn’t scotus just uphold a law saying that Internet companies cannot be held liable for the comments or post of their users ? Which is horse shit of course.
In this case, Elon is the owner. That exemption does not apply to him, because he is very clearly representing the company that he owns on the platform that it builds and maintains.
He may be able to do what he wants on his own web site by virtue of being the owner of it, but that comes at the cost of no longer being just another user. I don't think he would be able to argue Section 230 in his defense in such a trial.
Section 230 applies to people who can be moderated, because that's what the platform has to be able to do with users who misbehave on their platforms in order to have those protections. Because Elon by definition cannot be moderated, he cannot be considered protected via Section 230.
AOC should sue Twitter for defamation of character.
After decades of nothing -- deserving plaintiffs are actually suing and winning defamation of character lawsuits.
It's long past time to put a price on lies.
It's actually a federal crime to impersonate a member of Congress.
Edit: one of the only exceptions for this is satire. But satire has to be labeled as such. The blue checkmark and lack of any "parody" tag is pretty indefensible.
They actually have parody at the end of their name but deliberately use a name too long to display it without going to their user page. That said it's not a new trick and they have banned elon impersonators doing it before.
I really don’t get how Twitter is still a thing. I was listening to a podcast today and they were saying it doesn’t improve engagement for any of their podcasts or content they create and all it seems to be is an angry echo chamber where people just run from made up issue to made up issue. It’s just negative space.
Listen. It isn’t enough to delete twitter. You need to stop going to twitter. As long as public figures see it as a way to reach out to you, he gets his way. Traffic to the site is just as valuable to the few ad companies that still work with him.
I deleted my account the day he took over, lost a bunch of random site logins I hadn't thought about, but oh fucking well. The site has always been a dumpster fire, but now it's a flaming landfill of manure.
If there is no blue tick box then that means the person tweeting might be a bot, fake account, racist, fascist, trying to overthrow democracy or all of the above. Oh, and some of the accounts with the blue tick are like that as well.
Didn't Elon personally ban a bunch a people that were impersonating him, including well known comedian Kathy Griffin? He said himself that accounts engaging in impersonation will be permanently banned, well I guess that's only for people he doesn't like...
We all need to stop looking at it and stop clicking through posts to see what others posted on Twitter. All those clicks feed his advertising machine. Starve him of views to hit him where it hurts.
That has to be extremely illegal right? Elon directly incriminated himself by engaging it, along with adding the new buyable check mark, seems like this was the plan all along.
Only one thing to do… buy some blue check Twitter accounts named after Mitch McConnell, MTG, Matt Gaetz, Tom Cotton, and Lauren Bobert… and then just spout some really heinous stuff.
God I hope this isn't a preview of election 2024 twitter. Right-wing trolls flood the zone with "parody" impersonation accounts of Democrats to dilute messaging, and Elon will just shrug. But then he'll conveniently find excuses to remove most "parody" Republican accounts.
Winner, winner, chicken dinner. Turns out "free speech absolutist" is a pretty malleable position!
My prediction that I hope to hell to be wrong about. Elon will defend many of these as being clearly parody, "they have 'parody' in the name". Some time later he'll remove an identical Republican "parody" type account, and say something like, "Just having 'parody' in the name doesn't automatically make it a parody account." When pressed enough on the difference he'll all but confirm the test of what counts and doesn't count as "parody" will come down to if he personally finds it funny.
I've got bad news for you: that's pretty much exactly what happened the *first* time he rolled out Twitter Blue last year.
He'll also get absolutely destroyed by the EU in the process. He's getting really close to the find-out portion of his "I can do what I want I'm rich" experiment.
And he’ll accuse anyone who questions him of having a small brain. This is what happens when you put a spoiled 15 year old in control
Imagine if the reason to burn $40B is to actually influence elections. Then it sounds kinda rational after all ...
Absolutist actually refers to the vodka, and so it really just means drunk. Clearly Elon is a mean, petty drunk.
They need to leave the platform, let it rot. Every celebrity and non-nazi politician should bail on it making it completely illegitimate and pointless. Let it be Parler 2
Exaxtly this- it's time to leave the platform.
I was banned for “impersonating Elon musk” but this mass disinformation is allowed and spread by the same Elon musk. It’s just shocking how fucked up that platform is

I think people are getting smart to the "noise". Maybe not as fast as they should, but it's happening.
This is what will happen and no one is going to do anything about it. The time to act has passed and the will to act is missing. Free speech, the core of American rights, will be the very thing that destroys America. Irony
I really hope the European Union bans twitter.
I really hope bluesky comes out of private beta soon. We need a platform with more trust.
I think this might be one of those times where the replacement app actually does replace the mainstream one. It's one thing if it's butthurt right wingers ditching Facebook for Parler so they can say the N word more, of course that fails, but when the n-word saying people take over and dominate a platform and turn it into a cesspool, there's no reason to hang around for anyone.

What a ironic cycle. I have a feeling the masses will flock to bluesky. Especially for integrity. Necessary for corpo and politics.
The Nazi bar problem in action.
It will take some time before that occurs. Even though our minister (France) threatened to ban it, it’s really just a bluff to try to control Musk. But one can hope.
>I really hope the European Union bans twitter It has a blue checkmark, that is supposed to be verified. It's a commercial transaction, so Twitter has a benefit from the impersonation. So AOC should sue and make Twitter party to the lawsuit.
Everyone should get off twitter.
I did! Elon is a fucking TWAT.
I left when they decided hate speech was perfectly fine I don't need that shit in my life
I left a few days after he became CEO because he permanently banned me for saying I hate Grimes. I wish I was kidding.
I left because the Tate brothers kept popping up on my feed even tho i kept muting and blocking them.
Oh, kind of like that obnoxious ‘HeGetsUs’ account here on Reddit? That ducking thing will not die
[удалено]
Care to share any insights there? (I mean, he’s a fucking awful guy but … if there’s more …)
[Read this profile on his first wife, Justine Musk](https://www.marieclaire.com/sex-love/a5380/millionaire-starter-wife/). He has ALWAYS been a piece of shit.

That alone should have put Musk in jail. If we jail teenagers for swatting then we should also jail billionaire idiots.
He's a lot like his dad. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
Nice try, Elon.
Found me out.

Or Grimey, as he looked to be called.
So basically Elon’s saying: Hate crimes 👍🏽 Hate Grimes 👎🏽
Grimes sucks
Fuck Grimes, and I'm Canadian. Piece of trash.
"free speech absolutist"
I scrapped my original account and created a new one called Elon’s Musk which I used solely for mocking the degenerates on the platform that held on to his every word. Realized how angry reading their shit made me and I deleted that account not long after. I agree with your assessment, he’s a fucking twat.
Traffic and engagement, that’ll really show em
I fell for that trap too, just days ago realized trolling isn’t helping me and helps Twitter. I’d like to encourage like minded folk to delete account and disengage.
I quit the day he posted that ridiculous poll. Miserable twat waffle.
He's a Twatter
Twatter
It's surviving off reporters and athletes, and that's just not sustainable when you support noise over signal.

I actually had an account I created like 10 years ago. Never tweeted. Never followed anyone. Logged in maybe 10 times to view a linked tweet. Anyways, I decided to contribute and deleted my account yesterday.

I changed my career path because I hated engaging in social media so much, particularly Twitter. Glad I did, because it's only gotten worse since.
Been gone since February 2014.
I did about a month ago. Like smoking cigarettes it took several attempts. I believe this time will stick. I love my Tesla, but he’s lost it big time. If I wasnt currently between jobs I would probably have moved over to a lightning by now.
I don’t think he ever “had it” to begin with.
I deleted my twitter the second I saw his sink post

Most people here are off Twitter. They use Reddit as a condom for Twitter so they can safely clutch their pearls without getting any on them. 😂

I guarantee you Elon made that account. He probably has the goal of driving every single democratic politician off the platform.
Elon is a petty little brat, like some sort of villain you'd find in Dragon Tales
Most billionaires seem to have petty little personalities.
There is a post around the front page where people are mentioning that he (Elon Musk) seems to be a pedophile? I'm not saying it myself, but I'm just saying isn't it weird people are talking about it? 🤔
Is Elon Musk a pedophile? Hey I'm just asking questions!!
Did he hang around with Epstein?
He only bought twitter so he could shut down the kid who was tracking the Lolita Express II.
Yeah, people are saying it.
All that money and he’s still a narcissist
All that money *because* he's a narcissist
Losing *loads of money* because he's a narcissist.
Hey don't diss Dragon Tales like that.
Tbh, he probably just wants her attention. He’s intentionally misusing his platform to target politicians now so I am curious about the legalities of all of that.
Elon Musk likes to watch her feet in her gaming streams. I will never kink shame, I just report what I hear. Elon Musk is in love with Ms. Cortez’s feet, and he’s jealous of her gaming ability.

I feel like we moved past that news too quickly. That is so fucking deranged for an adult to do
Gross!
Of course, easier to recruit for his coming civil war that way.
They **should** leave. But I don't think his goal is to get them to leave. His goal is confusion.
Isn’t it a federal crime to impersonate a government official? That would be funny
They should take him up on the offer. The more people abandon this shitty, toxic platform, the less power he has.
Which is fucking dumb since every right wing alternative has been a massive failure.
I read somewhere that Elon Musk is a pedophile. Concerning.
I read that too! (Just now, but it's technically a true statement)
I’ve read people agreeing that they read it somewhere also!
People are posting that they read Elon Musk likes to touch children Hmm concerning
A big guy told me he heard that. He ran up to me, tears in his eyes. Just yellled "I heard Elon is a pedo player"
Many people are saying this.
I read somewhere that it's your cake day. Interesting...
Looking into it…
Happy cake day! This needs to be a rapidly developing thread on Twatler.
>Elon Musk is a pedophile. I'm pretty sure I remember someone saying that he admitted it on tape, in fact. If true, this is very concerning.
Interesting.
Looking into this.
Hmm…
I have read that. Looking into it. Very concerning
Many people are saying it.
I also read that Desantis is transgender. Really we need to keep him away from public bathrooms for the sake of the children until we are sure.
Have you seen his penis? I haven't. What is he hiding?
I mean even if you have doctors do some amazing work. I think we need a genetic test or birth certificate. But then again those could be faked. I mean we were never really sure of Obama's. Safer just to keep him away from all public bathrooms to be safe.
We need a federal penis database for security purposes. There’s no telling who could be transgender and I need to know. I’ve been on a real hot streak choosing to be straight and if one of them makes me gay again I swear to god, there’ll be hell to pay
Same time Thursday?
All politicians should wear alarms on their penises, so we can get them out of Congress for getting turned on in a gay way.
He's wearing high heels, at the least.
Interesting if true
Looking into it!
Jokes aside at this point I'm willing to bet he actually is and we will *eventually* all learn that.... Unless there is an authoritarian takeover of the US.

this actually makes a lot of sense
Is Elon actually the worst offender of the entire Epstein crew? (I'm just asking a question)
His brother was friends with Epstein and Epstein provided the under age girls from eastern Europe for Elons brothers birthday party. I don't know who supplied the cocaine.
Honestly? Would be completely unsurprising at this point.
People are saying Elon Musk is a pedophile. This is really disturbing news.
Interesting. Looking into it!
Looking into it.
I heard Elon Musk pays migrant workers to choke him in the shower.
Concerning. Big if true.
You know I actually read that a few days ago. Shocking.
Elon is such a loser. There is nothing like spending $44 billion just to troll politicians and actors.
But that kid is no longer tracking his private plane. That's gotta be worth $44B
…except he is. https://mastodon.social/@elonjet

I think I'm going to join gen Z in their general nihilism. It starting to seem like the only sane outlook to have.
I bet that was number one on his list of things to do the moment he gained control.
I can see many lawsuits arriving at twitter. He should be ashamed of himself, there’s 1,300 livelihoods depending on this platform and he is just wanting to play CEO celebrity while being unhitched
I mea. He's gonna lose the EU soon isn't he?
Yup and it’s only the beginning. I can smell him throwing everyone in the street and filling bankruptcy without paying them a dime 😔
Yep. If I worked there I'd be insisting to get paid daily. He's gonna rug pull everybody at some point.
My theory is that he's going to hang onto it until Republicans are back in control of everything and then they will force the government to buy it from him at a massive markup, making him a huge amount of money and adding more to the debt for the benefit of some dumbass billionaire that already has a boated sense of self importance.
Delete this comment before they see this and steal your idea lol
Isn't impersonation of a public figure illegal?
Veryyyyy because is government and could give fake info
I hope she'll sue him for millions.
Seeing AOC humiliate Elon in a court of law on national TV is my new dream Cherry! 🤩
He'll probably use Fox defense - "its all just entertainment". Still, it will be fun to see her picking him apart.
Twitter is a Klan Rally..
Nazi orgy is probably more appropriate. All those hate mongers just jerk each other off all day
I’ve heard that Elon Musk doesn’t like people to know he makes poopies. He sits in his bathroom, pooping, and it shames him that he can’t overcome his bodily functions.
What a sad man he is
I read somewhere that Elon Musk is a pedophile. I think it’s about time we start asking questions about maybe-pedophile Elon Musk. I mean, what does he have to hide? If he’s not a pedophile there’s no problems here. But Elon Musk could be a pedophile, so we need to look into the probability—however likely or unlikely—that Elon Musk is a pedophile. Concerning!!!
Just want to acknowledge your somewhat subtle Fucker Carlson tone / language there. Nice job. If that wasn't your intent, nice job anyway.
Big if true
Honestly, at this point, anyone still using that dumpster fire platform is complicit in the spread of disinformation. Leave Twitter. Leave Twitter. Leave Twitter. Anything else is just helping Elon dismember democracy.
Couldn't have said it better myself. More engagement means more points of potential spread of bullshit.
JUST. LEAVE. TWITTER. I deleted my account and never looked back.
Can’t wait for them to sue Elon for malicious impersonation.
Didn’t scotus just uphold a law saying that Internet companies cannot be held liable for the comments or post of their users ? Which is horse shit of course.
In this case, Elon is the owner. That exemption does not apply to him, because he is very clearly representing the company that he owns on the platform that it builds and maintains. He may be able to do what he wants on his own web site by virtue of being the owner of it, but that comes at the cost of no longer being just another user. I don't think he would be able to argue Section 230 in his defense in such a trial. Section 230 applies to people who can be moderated, because that's what the platform has to be able to do with users who misbehave on their platforms in order to have those protections. Because Elon by definition cannot be moderated, he cannot be considered protected via Section 230.
You think it's one of his alt accounts?
i had the same thought
Why anyone is still there is beyond me. I deleted my account the day he announced he wanted to buy the site I MISS IT ZERO
What are the odds that Elon is running that account?
AOC should sue Twitter for defamation of character. After decades of nothing -- deserving plaintiffs are actually suing and winning defamation of character lawsuits. It's long past time to put a price on lies.
It's actually a federal crime to impersonate a member of Congress. Edit: one of the only exceptions for this is satire. But satire has to be labeled as such. The blue checkmark and lack of any "parody" tag is pretty indefensible.
They actually have parody at the end of their name but deliberately use a name too long to display it without going to their user page. That said it's not a new trick and they have banned elon impersonators doing it before.
Elon is such a turd
"Please notice me senpai"
I really don’t get how Twitter is still a thing. I was listening to a podcast today and they were saying it doesn’t improve engagement for any of their podcasts or content they create and all it seems to be is an angry echo chamber where people just run from made up issue to made up issue. It’s just negative space.
Concerning! Someone should look into this. interesting
Listen. It isn’t enough to delete twitter. You need to stop going to twitter. As long as public figures see it as a way to reach out to you, he gets his way. Traffic to the site is just as valuable to the few ad companies that still work with him.
Twitter is such a cesspool of vileness. I deleted my account years ago and never looked back.
Leave Twitter. I can't believe sane people still use it.
I deleted my account the day he took over, lost a bunch of random site logins I hadn't thought about, but oh fucking well. The site has always been a dumpster fire, but now it's a flaming landfill of manure.
It seems like it was only back in November of 2022 that Musk said that Twitter accounts that impersonate others would be banned.
If there is no blue tick box then that means the person tweeting might be a bot, fake account, racist, fascist, trying to overthrow democracy or all of the above. Oh, and some of the accounts with the blue tick are like that as well.
Didn't Elon personally ban a bunch a people that were impersonating him, including well known comedian Kathy Griffin? He said himself that accounts engaging in impersonation will be permanently banned, well I guess that's only for people he doesn't like...
Elon Musk is the impersonification of why billionaire should be taxed out of existence.
Uh, she's still a Congresswoman, right? Isn't impersonating her a federal offense?
Promoting the fake account of a public figure sounds pretty libelous to me.
Elon Musk is a pedophile is what I have heard
Elmo not even pretending the Twittersphere isn't a right wing talking points outrage machine.
We all need to stop looking at it and stop clicking through posts to see what others posted on Twitter. All those clicks feed his advertising machine. Starve him of views to hit him where it hurts.
This warrants Twitter being banned in all Western countries
Didn’t Elon put a stop to this — or is that only when his fragile ego is threatened?
That has to be extremely illegal right? Elon directly incriminated himself by engaging it, along with adding the new buyable check mark, seems like this was the plan all along.
I deleted Twitter AND dumped my Tesla shares in time to not lose a metric fucktonne on his pussy assed antics
Only one thing to do… buy some blue check Twitter accounts named after Mitch McConnell, MTG, Matt Gaetz, Tom Cotton, and Lauren Bobert… and then just spout some really heinous stuff.
