So yeah, includes pretty much all professional social media people. If he was planning on getting rid of all that it would actually be a good thing, but nah, that post was likely the start and end of his war on "engagement farming".

That's too generous, decent odds he's setting it up to ban any account which criticizes him and is popular. The vagueness is the point.

Ok well I’ll be clearer. If you want stocks but a functioning democracy at the same time you need to have a communist state (like China) and not the USA

China is not a functioning democracy, and hardly a communist state except in name. There are the few super wealthy there, and people who're homeless and live in deep generational poverty

Their stock market is also hosed, it's just a bit more complex to navigate

Capitalism bad ≠ China good

If you'd rather want a better example you should've used Vietnam where one of the wealthiest bankiers are facing the death penalty for fraud. But they too (shock) has a stock market with the same fundamental flaws as all other stock markets

I wonder how robust and thorough the twitter filter for cis or cisgender is. does the classic c*i*s*g*e*n*d*e*r, c i s g e n d e r, strats work? what about some of those look alike characters from other alphabets?

I have a twitter account. It was blocked for the longest time and I could never figure out why. I could read twitter, but not post or even access my account.

But it started working a couple weeks ago. Since then, I've posted "cis" "cis men" "cismen" "cis women" and all the combinations I can think of, just to see how this works.

But nothing has gotten pinged by the system yet. I wonder if it's only in replies to one of Elon's special boys?

That video of musk posing on the red carpet makes me viscerally uncomfortable in a way that almost nothing else has. It's gone beyond cringe/secondhand embarrassment into something else.

Someone has a side by side of it with the Sims character screen and it's loving identical. The little simpering laugh after each pose. Eugh.

It's Bruce posing on the red carpet in the Lego Batman movie but completely unaware that's meant to be oblivious cringe.

Am I losing my mind or doesn't most of this apply to Musk, himself? Forcing people to follow him (iirc that happens when you join?).

He and Linda begging people to post on X for instance, is "engagement farming", right? :elon:
