It's like 'you know who the Illuminati were? A bunch of people that wanted to talk about science & and such without being burned at the stake.'

That their name is still power in these fool's ears, several hundred years later, is telling on themselves.

I think there are a lot of mediocre people who think they are a whole lot smarter than they are, who are simultaneously doing everything in bad faith to advance "the cause", and yet still misinterpret the truths they try to manipulate because they are extremely stupid and angry.

There are tools to check if you're shadow banned or reply deboosted, etc.

Musk's own pet-reinstated accounts are currently shadowbanned. I suppose Elon should step down!

I keep chuckling to myself that Musk and his new :airquote:journalist:airquote: cohorts talk like these are Pulitzer prize worthy megascoops on the same level as Snowden or Manning whistleblowing, as opposed to milquetoast revelations that a massive social media platform operated a professional moderation policy with upper management oversight.

Truly these are the modern day Nixon tapes.

I never knew about that but just today I searched for “Loomer” and the suggestion / autocomplete thing didn’t show me anything but as soon as I hit search she was the top hit.

I know they always say not to touch the poop but loomer has open DMs… I spent far too long wondering if I could long con her like the CAIR thing but I’m not smart or committed enough, so I just sent goatse.

Just wild giving two pet journalists access to internal systems.

Look at the sidebar and imagine them just crawling through their enemies accounts, and at the same time firing the head lawyer dude who might have raised some concerns over this big brained idea.

Corporate lawyers probably have nightmares about what's currently unfolding at twitter happening at their workplace.

I look at that internal systems screen, and I just imagine every lawyer on twitter is following this pretty closely out of horrified fascination.

so, I know DMs on twitter arent encrypted or anything, but does the admin control panel literally have a button on the left to access any user's private messages with a single click?

(also what the gently caress is "guano" on the left there)

Yeah wasn't one of Musky's idle thoughts to add E2E encryption to twitter DMs? He never will because then he can't read em or pass them along to his nazi gently caress friends.

That's why I encourage his Mars mission as strongly as possible. It's science and discovery. Human achievement.

We can start with a moon base project if that's still too challenging.

I encourage the planet Mars to send an envoy to Earth in the form of de-orbited space debris, to greet Lonnie personally and with body-vaporizing kinetic energy.

BRB gonna DM everyone I can that Steve from SpaceX told me Elon was planning to go up in a Dragon capsule, but when he got in the simulator for the first time, he had a panic attack and peed his pants and now he's too scared to get in again and needs someone to hold his hand when he gets close to it and 75% of the time he also pees his pants again.

Let's see how long anyone named a variation of Steve lasts there now...
