Elon Musk Buys Twitter

[D Luniz]

So that's two completely stupid, pointless games of chicken that Leon has chosen to start. And he lost both of them.

Damn, so was all his high falootin rhetoric about freeze peach and how bad Brazil was really just sour grapes?

I can't wait to find out what game of chicken he's going to get into, completely of his own volition, next.

He's still that the headlights of Cards Against Humanity coming.

Let's go for the hat trick!!

Leopards eating faces, etc.

I don't know how someone can be gay and conservative aside from deeply rooted misunderstanding of economics along with an upbringing that heavily indoctrinates you into believing the government is pure evil.

What better way to make sure the government is evil than to vote for the most evil party? 4D chess.

Apparently the person that Tweeted that went through and expunged all the hate comments?

He should have started with his own first.

No disagreement there.

Wait, I thought Twitter was all about free speech, why do they allow users to censor others??

Some speech is more free than others I guess.

Tax cuts.
Misogyny
Racism
Religious fanaticism
Guns

I don't think all GOP members are the same. I imagine some gay GOP will suck up some contempt from their fellows in exchange for something else.

Ironic that they have to pay for it :^)

While the comments there are indeed awful and the guy who started it being a clueless Log Cabin Republican believing he has a place in their ranks I did get a pretty big laugh at "poopdickery."

I too learned a fun new word today. Poopdickery.

It's almost as good as Cockwomble. Almost.

This will be like the 7th time this is supposedly happening but if Leon actually pulls the trigger on this one it's over for Twitter. He's already alienated a lot of Brazil over a couple of weeks with no access to Brazil. A lot of people WILL leave Twitter if he does this and him undoing the block button removal won't bring them back.

I can only imagine how much this has cost his engineers to figure out how to do overall. Imagine if he had to justify this kind of investment to a board of directors or something, he wouldn't last a week.

Also glad to see Twitter CEO Linda Yaccarino still making and commenting on the major policy changes that are ongoing within the company she runs. At least on paper. Paper I'd like to own because getting a paycheck to have the title of "CEO" sounds rad.

[Breccia]

Here is the post shown above. As you can see, the comments are highly negative.

My favorite comment:

Going forward, there will be a vote for major policy changes. My apologies. Won’t happen again.

Oh whoops, that's not a comment on the post. That's something he said Dec 18, 2022 after...well, several things, honesly, Dec 2022 was a month with a lot of changes, including paid blue-check status, banning journalists, banning the person tracking his plane, hosting a poll in which the majority said he should step down (he did not step down), firing the misinformation team and reinstating Trump within a week of each other, dissolving the Health and Safety Council, and probably some stuff I'm forgetting.

To be fair it doesn't really matter if a blocked person can see your posts - if they really want to see a post they can just log into another account and see them from there, so it makes no real difference.

Why does this strike me as Elon wanting to force his posts onto all the people he has blocked?

Because he's probably mad over being the most blocked account on twitter.

What makes you think he wants--
