This guy is losing it
Which reminds me, my Twitter is going to be trashed if I don’t get rid of two factor authentication…I gotta remember to do that. They only let people that paid to get a blue checkmark have security now.

There is really something mentally wrong with this dude. He first covered up the “w” in Twitter on the building sign. The was told he could not so he painted the same color as the background. He just wants it to say “titter”.

LMAO. Editorial independence? Almost every form of mass media is beholden to special interests and the largest of those special interests is the freaking governments that (a) directly or indirectly fund media outlets and (b) provide sourcing of information to media outlets. It ain't an accident that every TV station ran ads urging people to get vaccinated that were funded by the government or Pfizer and then characterized dissenters as total crackpots and enemies of the state. It's a big fucking club and we ain't in it.

Yes, the dissenters are crackpots in your mind because the media intentionally uses the most outlier lunatics and situations to create the binary hivemind that dominates our sociological and political landscape. You were given multiple options with which to tag "anti-vaxxers" including the "this will turn me into a 5G transmitter" lunatics and the "now I'm magnetic" morons. These are amplified by design and seem to have worked very well as exhibited by your continued adherence to the opinion that was driven into your head.

Jesus fucking Christ what a bullshit know nothing response. If you don’t have anything of value to say then just shut the fuck up.

Do you have any substantive response or have you been so divested of independent thought that you are reduced to just telling anyone whose thought deviates slightly from yours to shut the fuck up?

Maybe it's time to just start ignoring things.
The fringes of modern society actively enable/embolden/encourage the very things they think they're supposed to hate and fight against.

However the business of media specifically amplifies the fringes in order to characterize it as one side of a debate and to drive impressions, views, clicks, eyeballs, viewers, subscribers, whatever metric you want to use. People like Ginger or Thunder have a pathological need to get angered about how much they hate the "other side" and the media has to provide fodder to satiate that daily demand. The right wing sources do it, the left wing sources do it. It's like the Two Minutes Hate from 1984 but it can be hypercustomized to each user with modern technology.

Today was the day that Twitter removed any verification of “important people unless you pay $8bucks/month so the impersonating has begun

Can someone please explain the leftist hivemind take on this position? Should Elon bend the knee to the largest 100 multinationals that advertise on Twitter when crafting the terms of service or should he take this approach of telling them that the platform will not be subject to an advertising license to do business? Old school leftists used to understand the inherent dangers of the advertising license to do business, but what is the current thought?

Old school leftists used to understand the inherent dangers of the advertising license to do business, but what is the current thought? The dude doesn’t really believe in freedom of speech. He makes a mockery of it. He has the Jon Miller approach to message boards by blocking people that express dissent against him. He allows harassment of users to go on with no intervention. He’s a big man baby. As far as those that went to block people paying for blue checks, who cares. Previously the verified checks indicated celebrities, news organizations and other businesses were who they say they were. But now you won’t know and more impersonation will happen. No one wants to pay a loser millionaire 11 bucks a month. The paid blue check allows those users to have their accounts promoted over non blue checks. He wants everybody to be open to conversation with people that think differently but as we know with social media and IRL, people are assholes. Not everyone that joined Twitter wants to be on there for discussions and arguments with people of the opposing mindset. Some just want to follow news sources, people that like the same sports teams, maybe interact with a celebrity or hang with people that think the same way as them.

Elon changed the name of Twitter now to X. You may have noticed the x on Twitter posts.
