Rusty म्हणाले...: Okayyyy. What ev. I don't use so...... Carry on.; १८/११/२२, १:४४ PM
Beasts of England म्हणाले...: Strange that he allows Biden to spew misinformation on a regular basis but hasn’t reinstated candidate Trump. Not a good look.; १८/११/२२, १:४८ PM
rhhardin म्हणाले...: They need to have hate speech channels by category so you can find them. Fine divisions would be nice.

An amused-by-women channel for instance. A black leadership self-defeating themselves channel.; १८/११/२२, १:५० PM
n.n म्हणाले...: Our first African-American... Progress: one step forward, two steps backward.; १८/११/२२, २:३३ PM
Maynard म्हणाले...: I have never been on Twitter, but Elon may make it interesting.

Time will tell.; १८/११/२२, २:३४ PM

He establishes the precedent of permanently banned accounts being allowed back on under the new rules. Rules that don't penalize an entire account if there is disagreement with a specific tweet.

I imagine Trump's account will be reinstated shortly now that the new precedent has been established and others have been allowed back on first, including a rabid Trump hater, which seems like a good move to me.; १८/११/२२, २:३४ PM
Carol म्हणाले...: Media is trying hard to run off his users. Lots of stories about how mean he is. Wah wah wah..

These people are such babies.; १८/११/२२, २:३६ PM
Drago म्हणाले...: Of course, none of this matters anyway because, according to Dumb Lefty Mark, Twitter is basically dead in the water and will go under in the very short term and can't possibly survive without the guidance and support of fellow Dumb Lefties, like himself.

Further, apparently Elon doesn't know anything about running companies. So, all hope is lost at this point and I suspect all of Spacex's rockets will begin doing nosedives off the launch platforms and Teslas will begin careening off canyon walls and murdering millions.; १८/११/२२, २:३७ PM
tim in vermont म्हणाले...: Without a blue check, you may as well have a microblog. Which is ok, I guess. I had a tweet with 2 likes and 2 retweets out of 12 impressions. Not sure how much more my speech could be limited.; १८/११/२२, २:४० PM
NorthOfTheOneOhOne म्हणाले...: I got this second hand, but CNN is reporting that everyone's quit and that Elon is sitting in a conference room, begging, with tears in his eyes* for anyone who can write code to come down to the Twitter offices.

* Ok, I made the tears in his eyes part up, but CNN is supposedly reporting the rest.; १८/११/२२, २:५० PM
Iman म्हणाले...: ही टिप्पणी लेखकाना हलविली आहे.; १८/११/२२, ३:०४ PM
lonejustice म्हणाले...: Iman said... "Twitter is a nest of narcissists and exists for people that like to brown nose the Twatterati, (e.g., Patterico and Jake Tapper)."

Trump REALLY liked Twitter before he was booted off. He was constantly on it.; १८/११/२२, ३:१९ PM
rastajenk म्हणाले...: Patterico still exists? He's from back in the paleo- days, isn't he?; १८/११/२२, ३:३० PM
Jupiter म्हणाले...: "I imagine Trump's account will be reinstated shortly now that the new precedent has been established and others have been allowed back on first, including a rabid Trump hater, which seems like a good move to me."

I think the problem is that Trump has said he doesn't want back on Twitter.; १८/११/२२, ३:५८ PM
Jamie म्हणाले...: Meet the new boss, same as the old boss, only slightly less so? I'm a fan of Musk (that crazy so-and-so), but he might have a tiger by the tail in trying to draw the distinction between speech and "hate speech."; १८/११/२२, ४:१४ PM
Leland म्हणाले...: Why the tag "Kathy Griffin"? Musk said "Kathie Griffin", the parody account I'm sure.; १८/११/२२, ४:४६ PM
Spiros म्हणाले...: I don't care if the dumb ass tweets of a few thousand racists, misogynists, anti-Semites and child abusers aren't subject to algorhithmic amplification. The more important fight will be over anonymity. Some people (you know who) believe that anonymity enables bad behavior and facilitates uncivil discourse. Others believe that purging user anonymity will allow the government (probably woke employers as well) to monitor citizens, suppress free speech and shape social debate.; १८/११/२२, ५:०९ PM
Howard म्हणाले...: Although I don't use it my wife does. A month or so ago there was a huge fire in our town. We could see the plume from miles away. She could find no news articles about it but there were tons and tons of real-time reports coming in on Twitter. I think it can be used as a news aggregator based on people who you trust or like feel provide interesting content. It's more than the noise amplification bullshit that you Cucks get all verklempt about.

I don't have fucking time for the news. That's why I troll Althouse; १८/११/२२, ५:२७ PM
Drago म्हणाले...: Howard: "It's more than the noise amplification bullshit that you Cucks get all verklempt about."

I give this comment a "3" on the Howard Moron Magic 8-Ball scale.

Unfortunately, because the terms "inflation" and "recession" were not pre-programmed into at least 1 of the Moron Magic 8-Balls, Howard remains blissfully unaware of either term and doesnt even believe they exist.; १८/११/२२, ७:४६ PM
Ann Althouse म्हणाले...: Kathy Griffin mentions the misspelling of her name here, on TikTok

Kevin म्हणाले...: Kathy Griffin mentions the misspelling of her name here, on TikTok

Would be funny if Elon didn’t mean her but another Kathie Griffin.; १८/११/२२, ८:४३ PM
Paul Mac म्हणाले...: He is running a poll right now about whether to reinstate Trump or not. He did this about buying Twitter and abode by the results.

Reinstating him is leading but has been losing ground gradually, from about 60-64% when I first saw it at hundreds of thousands of votes to under 54% now with approaching 7 million.
