Remember when the libs were praising musk with everything he did?
What changed was the media telling them not too anymore
Redditors not posting about musk for 5 hours challenge (impossible)
Cry harder
lol musk fanboy triggered
No, and I’m not sure how that would work. You’re whining about musk being criticized and apparently think this is reddit so I guess being confusing is your thing
Keep going he will notice you someday
Lol you think he gives his simps free blue check marks or something?
Thats the best part, you do it for free
You’re the one sucking him off here.
“Oh God some strangers are picking on Daddy, time for me to shine.”
Do you know what website you’re on?
Yeah reddit v2 apparently the musk obsessed fanboys migrated here if elon speaks I must be informed about it
Or, you know, he’s the richest man in the world running a social media site extremely popular with governments and the media and ignoring that kind of thing might be a bad idea.
Should we stop our “obsession” with other political topics? And this is a political topic due to the aforementioned governmental involvement, Twitter’s effect on world politics, and Elon’s own attempts to control U.S. politics.
Is this sub called US politics? My bad
Firstly, again, this is not Reddit. We don’t have subs here, we have communities.
Second, who are you to gatekeep? I don’t see an M next to your username.
This community is called technology, not politics.
Implying technology is apolitical? I sincerely beg to differ.
Properly categorizing content = gatekeeping lmao, even if that was how the word works then by your logic not letting me call it sub is also gatekeeping. I understand you hearx a new word today but google it before using it, musk fanboys are something else
I didn’t stop you from calling it a sub, you just keep calling this place Reddit and using Reddit terms and you’re just plainly wrong no matter how rude you are to me.
Stage 5: Acceptance
🍌We’re all trying to find the guy who did this
I think he probably would have made it work. The death knoll was certainly changing the name to X.
moving the goalpost. twitter was originally developed to be a “news service” not a “social network”
“The only real mistake is the one from which we learn nothing.”
“The only real mistake is the one from which we learn nothing.”
I wonder this a bit as folks flock to Bluesky. I mean, Threads is just right out there, but Facebook always has been so that demographic was going to be there anyhow. The people flocking to Bluesky because they don’t like Musk had better hope Jack Dorsey doesn’t turn out to be nuts now, right?
I feel like this whole debacle should have pumped up the various bits of the Fediverse more than it has.
Dorsey really trusts Musk’s “mission to extend the light of consciousness”, which I think says enough.
Nothing of value was lost.
Can we start a gofundme to persuade him to take over Facebook?
In the same way that car fails when you deliberately drive it 100mph into a brick wall.
So you’ve got experience with Tesla’s autopilot function…
Nailed it.
Uh, no. Autopilot was not enabled during that crash.
It disabled itself 0.25s before impact
All of Musk’s shit will fail, it’s just a question of ‘when’ not of ‘if’. That includes Tesla.
How long does it take to roll some video akin to tiktok and snapchat into it? Weed out all the bots at the same time by demanding fotoID and root out all the dirtbags abusing the app at the same time. Texting and chatting is so last decade anyway just leave it as a remnant of its birdie roots.
If it fails Meta will likely have to be broken up, their monopoly on social media is outrageous these days.
Dying is the entire point of it. If it dies, it becomes infinitely more difficult for the authorities to subpoena tweet histories of certain orange pieces of shit and his cronies.
It doesn’t stop them from getting that history, of course.
But the legal rigamarole of trying to get tweet history from a company that technically doesn’t exist anymore (It’s X, not twitter), and later on no longer even functions (servers shut down), might just delay things long enough to make a difference in the upcoming shit-show.
Man who bet billions that Twitter would fail is upset that it hasn’t already.
X? Can we collectively decide to forever call it “X, formerly known as Twitter” just to piss him off?
Seems like it will be the website formerly known as existing soon enough.
I like the most recent The Verge variant: Twitter, X, or whatever it’s currently called…
TwiX is unfortunately already taken.
Damn, I could go for a twix bar right about now.
I call it Xitter. The X is pronounced with an “sh” sound.
Exitter is also a valid prononciation
Better to just call it “The site formerly known as Twitter” and don’t mention X at all. That would piss him off more.

Ooh, even better!
I just call it Twitter. Just like I call the (former?) rapper Kanye West. I don’t cater to the whims of the 1% if I can help it.
I saw someone on Mastodon say something along the lines of “I’ll continue to deadname Twitter for as long as Musk continues to deadname his daughter” and I love that sentiment.
daaaaaaamn. That’s brilliant.
