Why would you pay 5 bucks to read long tweets. They are garbage!

Undo tweets is basically the same scam as NFTs since, you know, screenshots exist.

Yeah it's like the Gmail feature that lets you "undo" sending an email, they just buffer it for a certain amount of time, hopefully long enough to realise you hosed up If you don't pay for Twitter Prime you can always delete the tweet but someone might see it and screenshot it before you do

Also absolutely LMAO at the idea that any of the galaxy brain idiots would be deterred from showing their whole rear end by a delay.

All of that poo poo will have been painfully and carefully planned out in some insanely long and tedious brainstorming meeting. “Ok cool - and then we get the .co.uk account to mention making a “cuppa tea” guys? What do you think?” What a way to make a living eh ?

What you do is, you write the tweet, but then instead of pressing the "Tweet" button, you don't do that. You go and do something else for five minutes, then you come back and reread the tweet and simply choose not to post it.

Not to accuse Glenn Greenwald of being a fascist (he is) but it's mystifying to me that more fascists don't realize how quickly they could conquer the entire country if they offered people health care on top of all the fascism.

Health care in the sense that any real person means it is incompatible with American fascism

By american standards yes but that's not saying much. I don't think there are any UK fascist parties doing that any more though, they all went hardcore libertarian and the last vaguely "we should have a society but only for white people" party was probably the BNP. Now it's all appealing to megaracist boomers who already own a house and hate the idea of taxes and foreigners and their children being happy.

Greenwald’s pal Taibbi now just going full into the “you made me a nazi!!” cartoon https://twitter.com/mtaibbi/status/1400535408518340616 Jesus. What loving happened to that guy. His stuff in Rolling Stone on the financial crash was terrific journalism and writing and now his brain just appears to have melted.

Dynastocles posted:Based on the rest of their posts it looks like LibertyHangout is run by a hardcore Catholic. Aren't American Conservatives anti-Catholic though? I thought their version of Fundie Christianity was against Catholicism. As in full-on Jack Chick-esque equating the Pope to a baby blood drinking paedo.

BrigadierSensible posted:Aren't American Conservatives anti-Catholic though? American Catholics come in many stripes. They are traditionally a democratic voting bloc (the only two Catholic presidents have been dems) but lately there's been the rise of "tradcaths" on the right and also there are tons of single issue voters regarding abortion.

smellmycheese posted:Greenwald’s pal Taibbi now just going full into the “you made me a nazi!!” cartoon Yeah, we're getting a lot of full on masks off poo poo lately. I know he won't reply to me (even if he normally would have, god knows there's enough comments that he probably won't see mine) but I just asked him "so are you openly declaring you're a fascist now?" But anytime someone says something like this I want to ask them "are you speaking for yourself? Are you now more right wing than you used to be specifically because you keep getting too much criticism from the left?"

Twitter already has draft and tweet scheduling features baked in, free of charge. They just came up with a third barrier between brain and internet and then decided to charge users for it this time.

The boomers I know just love replying to and sharing this sort of catnip for dumdums intended to drive up engagement metrics or whatever: It is great that getting drunk and getting expelled apparently occupy the same tier of infamy for people who are allowed to drive cars and vote.
