Elon Musk is truly an innovator, because he shortened the whole "I'm not mad" tweet into a single emoji: 🤣

No. It's a horrible platform, no doubt. It doesn't promote racism, but its algorithms promote racist posts in neighbourhoods where an interest in being racist is high.

I don't live in such an area so any time I log in it's lost/found cat pics and people trying to give away unwanted poo poo, because nobody in my area is making posts about a black man looking suspicious while waiting for a bus.

This afternoon, yes, but the priest/harlot thing with Trump still takes top prize for the week, even though it’s only Monday. And probably for this entire saga, really.

I’m actually really interested to read analysis of Twitter bot-farms — who runs them, how they evade blocking measures. It would be doubly hilarious to be able to compare aggregate bot availability/reliability to the same metrics about Twitter itself at the moment. Despite the promises, it seems like they just keep on postin’, doublin’ everybody’s crypto in Elon’s good name…

I don't understand their responses. It's like they've been waiting days to unload strawmen they've cooked up in their brains but are too scared to do so on other sites. Losee seems to think you work at Twitter. Alexy is on an entirely different planet. Kinzler is...lmao.

God drat, these people are dumb as gently caress. This is the same kind of poo poo that got me to stop using Facebook. I can't handle the stupidity.

Saying Nextdoor is full of people calling the police on black people is definitely true for my area. Also Mexicans. The app has been co-opted by boomers who dream of running an HOA, but find that the app is the next best thing. It's full of complaints and "DID YOU SEE THE LATINOE FELLOW WALKING WITH A BACKPACK? I THINK THE BAG WAS FULL OF STOLEN GOODS, THE ONES STOLEN OFF THOSE PEOPLE'S LAWNS 5 WEEKS AGO." Someone's dog got out and ran way and 100% of the comments were "the Mexicans stole the dog and were selling it on the street corner." Some old hag was actually using Air BnB specifically to find people in our neighborhood to report for renting parts of their own property out for extra cash. She got one house investigated by the city for reasons unknown, and someone else had to remove a trailer from their own land due to her.

It's not. I see loads of these terrible nextdoor screenshots and they're nearly always American.

I'm in Ireland and my nextdoor feed is just lost/found pets, people looking to offload unwanted items for free, or complaints about bin collection. I've never seen anything remotely political on there.
This is my experience with it in my area of the US. Sometimes comments to posts skirt the edge of chuddiness but for the most part what I see is people telling others to lock their cars because thieves go through a neighborhood one night, people complaining about dog owners not picking up poo poo (which is totally valid), or someone posting they're throwing something out but if you want it before the trash guys take it it's on the curb.

I guess the Israel tweet is a reference to the Swift/Ye feud, and she's tagged in the original post. Not sure if the person running Israel's twitter is a chud too or just trying to make light of a lovely situation.

Either way, getting Swift involved in this poo poo seems like a bad idea.
