Elon Musk Buys X (formerly Twitter): Just Use Bluesky, Threads, or Mastodon Instead

[Sawyer]

So now I see old ****-for-brains here talking about wanting to buy Hasbro?

This dude can’t get enough of forcing himself into everyone’s life.

You'd think the richest man in the world could afford to buy thicker skin.

He'll buy Netflix and and Spotify next.

I’d really rather he just overdose instead.

So this is how they're doing verification for accounts. There's a Labeler you need to "Subscribe" to for it to show up, but that's how it works.

Elon Musk’s new DOGE plans are actually old ideas about mass deregulation

Musk didn’t invent the idea of defunding federal agencies.

Elon Musk calls for ‘appropriate penalty’ against Alexander Vindman for ‘treason’

The world’s richest man, who is also closely intertwined with the incoming Trump administration, raised eyebrows on Wednesday when he accused one of his critics of treason

The 80's action duo of Arnold and Sylvester are known Reagan Republicans, so this was a lateral shift. Arnold probably would be a Trump supporter had he not done The Apprentice.

Arnold is also very anti-fascist/anti-nazi because of his father's experience during WW2.

He went full anti-MAGA after January 6th.

I was going to say, Arnold really surprised me how progressive he is considering his history. Given he was a Reagan Republican and all he is actually far left for a Republican. I'd almost say he was an independent at this point.

If Wikipedia is lying, Stallone's mom is Ukrainian descent, so yeah.

Musk could use the ‘Department of Government Efficiency’ for self-enrichment

He’s said $42.45bn spent by the US for rural internet isn’t efficient. His Starlink company stands to benefit if he reduces that investment

We could use an "obviously" emote as well because that's like saying the sky is blue.

All he cares about is money. Not lives.

Twitter/X seems to be pretty much exclusively the domain of conspiracy theorists and generally violent and/or unpleasant people at this point. Not surprised a lot of people don't want any part of that website at this point.

That Reddit takes over in the UK is not that shocking...british people are on a different Drugs than the rest of the world.XD

Twitter is pretty much done and its not worth the "fight" anymore.
You dont try to save a sinking ship, you jump to a newer and bigger ship.
We all knew Musk would tank Twitter, it sucks but we all saw it coming.
Only thing to do is watch how it sinks.
