I don't know what's up with Robert De Niro and X.

I saw: "Actor Robert De Niro has been suspended from the platform X for issuing violent threats," according to the A.I. at X that automatically keeps track of trending topics and reports them in the sidebar.

And on first publishing this post, I said: "But I can't tell what he said that was so bad, since suspending him is about excluding his speech from the site. I would like to know because I've been hoping X would live up to high free-speech values. Nevertheless, there is a such thing as a 'true threat' in First Amendment law. I don't want to repeat the threats either, so keep them out of the comments. I'm reading elsewhere that they were aimed at Trump and his supporters."

But now I'm dubious about whether the account that I can see got suspended — @robertdeniro — is really Robert De Niro. I hope it isn't.

AND: X needs to do a better job with its automated sidebar, and I will be more skeptical of it going forward. Obviously, account names that look like famous names cannot be presumed to belong to the famous person.

Take a pill Inga. You are hysterical, as always.

Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves म्हणाले...

Trump-Hate Cultist & Lying Liar who Lies/ MSNBC-Maddow Russia Russia lie-parrot is complaining about hate.

Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves म्हणाले...

Leftists Hiveminders sure are getting touchy. They can dish the lies and hate - and made-up MSNBC Adam Schitt bullshit - but they cannot take it.

Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves म्हणाले...

Indeed. Plus - Inga is just a two-bit Maddow Russia Russia lying a-hole.

This is why we pay Begley the big bucks.

Well, given the poster's name, I fear it will involve human sacrifice.

Achilles म्हणाले...

No, it’s hatred. And you are one of the worst.

We don't hate you Inga.

We think you are stupid and you are clearly an enemy of freedom.

Hate is an emotion that stupid people like you feed off of because you have no actual valid positions and you cannot be honest about what you believe.

The Antifa-BLM riots and the billions in property damage - complete mirage to the hive-mind left.

Really? Why? The sentiment was expressed, and someone expressed it. Do you really have a psychic investment in this "movie star", that makes you care whether the person expressing it was RDB? What, you thought he was "better than that"? There's seven billion people running around loose, they're going to have opinions. It matters to you, whether this opinion was expressed by one of us randos, or by a real, actual, certified Ka-Movie Star (TM)?

@ annalthouse

All I did was "close the tag". My first try was "" without the quotes followed by a Return. Didn't work, Blogger isn't that old style.

Second try ""; that worked!

Make sense?

Dangit, even with quotes Blogger ate them. Try again:

Second try "-<-/-i->-"; that worked!

did they find out anymore about the registered republican kid that tried a murder fest and was partially successful? People up here don't seem to know he was a registered republican.Its pretty easy reading to find out but probably easier remaining in the dark and using non proven conspiracies. Could you imagine if it was a dem? trump won,rampant fraud, they cheated and still NO PROOF documented by any court especially the trump judges courts..Conspiracies much easier to tout,dont need proof for those either,,trump is too old and senile and cant keep focus for more than a sentence,like your crazy old grandpa DON OLD! This perp is going down again like 2018,2020 and 2022 2024 will be a drubbing,,women rule and men cant handle it,,it will be over soon hang in there they'll be 8 more years for the conspiracies for ya.Too old need young blood in the mix not a grandfather with a delusional mind..WILLIE BROWN says he will sue if the grandpa keeps his airplane lie up ,Simone Biles sent in 4 million and October surprise TAYLOR SWIFT sending in millions and bringing her SWIFTIES with her .game set match..When polls show team red up its all good,when it shows team blue its fake AI same old stale tale..cmon man

How is X doing in Brazil, Drago?

Clear you aren't following the news of Twitters continual advertising decline. Perhaps Elon will sue me into subscribing.

When the copyright police come for the new Grok image generator I am sure that won't cost Elon more money lol.

You kept promising they would be Break even a year ago. Where that profitability you told me was next quarter .... a year ago?

Mark म्हणाले...

You can call it whatever you want, all I know is that when I type in Twitter it still takes me to the same old site.

Jupiter said: "I must defend Igna again. I also read "I was close with Ritmo" to mean, well, I was close with Ritmo."

Jeez, look at the antecedent sentence: "Actually, I don't hate these lefties who post comments here. I was close with Ritmo but the others, like Freder, are just humorous." That to me says Michael was close to hating Ritmo.
Taking comments out of context is a primary failure (often intentional) of democrats; don't accept their inability to read or think beyond a second grade leve;. Joe still does it with his "Trump says nazis are good people" bullshit.

Althouse: I've posted the method a couple of times in recent days. It's simply to enter a close-italics tag and post it. Like (e.g.) this:

First off, Aggie claimed that people have been "beaten" for wearing MAGA hats. The article that Michael K linked to doesn't provide any instances of a beating. Where are the aggravated assault charges? Yes, pointing a Glock in someone's face is an assault, it is not battery (and the price we pay for allowing almost any random idiot to carry firearms).

Freder Frederson म्हणाले...

Fortunately, Jupiter's comment in this very thread demonstrates just the kind of comment I am referring to. Searching for old comments on this blog is not that easy, and I have better things to do.

For the record: Inga, Freder, Cook send Mark did not provide evidence to support their claims. NOT ONE OF THEM.
