Elon's never going to give users trans flags

It's just going to be various right-wing meme flags he neither knows nor cares were comes from.

He is so desperate for any validation and attention that in 3 months I guarantee he is going to be posting qanon poo poo since they will be the only people left on Twitter

It will be wild having the check-mark making shitheads' posts amplified. Imagine some sports reporters and official accounts will pony up, but man it's going to be a sea of blue check-marked poo poo, goddamn.

There are algorithms where many independent dumb agents seeks a goal, and while every minion is dumb, the colony is smart about finding that goal.

If you are 14 years old, this idea sounds awesome.

So what does that mean in this context? That twitter will collectively home in on the most effective slurs?

Elon's new model is based entirely on the assumption that because everyone uses twitter therefore everyone has to use twitter, so everyone will have to accept any zany rules he puts in place. He thinks he's a dictator in an authoritarian state, but he's just a business owner in a capitalist system.

there will be a new "verified account" badge

it will also be blue, and it will override the blue checkmark. it will be provided to verified accounts for free.
