BigglesSWE posted:You’re not wrong but I’m legit surprised that Trump hasn’t caved. I thought he’d be chomping at the bit to get back to Twitter and ditch his fake-Twitter faster than he’d ditch a political ally, but I guess spiteful rage can temper his impulse control. Permanent old man rage is a thing, and Twitter not only banned him but helped cost him his coup. His lizard brain understands that whether or not he does.

jesus gently caress, thats some mr burns energy poo poo right there. kw0134 posted:The goal of Twitter is to not be the main character for the day. Musk paid $20+ billion out of his own pocket to be the permanent main character. yeah, he is too insecure and hosed up narsstic to realize that being the main character won't make him loved. ProperCoochie posted:Yeah, at the core of it, it's this. They're pissed off that the world isn't like it was when they were 8 years old. Childbrain is essential for conservative existence. i think alot of it is "i peaked in the 80s/90s/early aughts and why dont people clap for everything i do anymore"

Trump does not play a supporting role or willingly take second place behind anyone. It would have been fine if Twitter was owned by a generic boring rich guy who kept quiet like Jack Dorsey, but this is clearly Elon's circus now. Trump isn't going to be a poor abused bear riding a bicycle for the crowd's amusement.

The really lovely part is that the world isn't getting any more complicated, the person observing it is just getting older and experiencing more of it. It was always complex, they just didn't realize it at the time. For them to think back nostalgically to a time when the world was "simple" means deliberately reverting to the solipsistic existence they had at 8 when the worst hardship they had to deal with was when Mom made that gross casserole for dinner. They'll never forgive the world for existing independently of them. In their mind it's the world that's at fault, they started it.

In his mind Twitter became a failing fake news site for losers the moment he got banned. Being allowed back on at the whim of some fake billionaire nerd is an insult. Trump would never come crawling back (like a dog!)

zedprime posted:These people aren't necessary looking for simplicity although it can be summarized that way. The Reawakening absolutely poisoned American sentiments for going on a century now. A doctrine of Christian sin defining many people's moral compass distills into an idea that you can't be all of happy, yourself, and Christianly. They see all these LGBTQ+ people being themself and being happy and just don't understand why they get that privilege and obviously while they are being themself they are indulging in the pedophilic, rapey, or murdery vices that they think everyone has because those are the thoughts they are busy suppressing. OK how about : "I want the world to be simple and everyone to follow these neat rules" "Not me though, I'm special"

Zzulu posted:I don't really understand what the threat of trans people are I remember John Oliver sort of covering this absolute obsession with LGBT stuff among conservatives and noting that the same guy that worked on popularizing the grievance against CRT and feeding conservatives talking points about it had been working hard at doing the same thing again LGBT people. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christopher_Rufo Here's his wiki page. As far as I can tell the LGBT thing is basically the sequel to the CRT scare and he more or less wrote the script to follow for it as well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ns8NvPPHX5Y&t=451s Here's the part of the segment where Oliver starts talking about and explaining Rufo. It was kind of an eye opener and made so much sense that of course it's the same guy and that's why all the Conservative bleats about LGBT people from everywhere all at once sound like they are coming from the same playbook, because they are.

Dapper_Swindler posted:yeah, he is too insecure and hosed up narsstic to realize that being the main character won't make him loved. Not only that, I also think that he’s too broke-brained at this point to realize that when you insert yourself into every goddamn thing, that only will it not win you over the adoration you so desperately crave, but if anything it’s going to make people absolutely sick of you and your bullshit eventually. And if Trump has taught us anything, you can even reach a point where your bootlickers even start to get a little tired of it. Like, Twitter can't just be the stupid hellsite I go to for news, funny takes from some people and lots of unintentional outrage. At least in my mind it's just so irrevocably tied up tight with that stupid apartheid man-baby.

learnincurve posted:The elephant in the room is that the LGBT+ community is just riddled with this gently caress you got mine attitude, especially from middle and upper class gay men which is the one group who could really stomp down hard and make a difference but very very few of them do because they are loving pussies who hide behind "this is a women's issue and nothing to do with me". There are either terfs claiming to be middle aged lesbians or there are a bunch of terfs who are middle aged lesbians who want to pull the ladder up behind them and have nothing to do with trans people I have gotten into repeated Twitter slapfights with terfs who get super mad if you say something like “i am shocked how many terfs are lgb folk who want to pull the ladder up behind them and have no solidarity with trans people” Britain has some fuckin’ ISSUES and i am unsure why

I can’t believe I am saying this, but I am actually going to give Trump a little bit of credit. For all the time that he spent on Twitter, he didn’t give us daily proof that he was scrolling around specifically looking at mentions of him just to help prop up or defend his laughably fragile ego. Elon meanwhile can’t help but insert himself into conversations everywhere whenever his name pops up, mainly with sycophants but also with critics. EDIT: Augh, bad post. As several posters have rightfully pointed out, I do not in fact have to hand it to Trump at all, and am definitely not remembering things well at all considered I managed to forget: Almost Smart posted:He had Whitehouse staff print out favorable tweets and deliver them to him, which he in turn read with more gusto than his intelligence briefings. Yeah, nevermind. Technological literacy does not make one shithead better than the other. IBroughttheFunk fucked around with this message at 18:31 on Dec 12, 2022 |

Yes exactly. They can't even accept that because it means at one point they were "less than". They are stunted. For conservatives, everything is image and surface, they seem mostly unaware that substance, depth, or z-coordinates even exist. Figuratively and literally. Like a flat earther that looks around and thinks "it sure looks flat to me!" and thinks that immediately outsmarts millions of scientists and their data across thousands of years. But never questioning what would the earth look like if it actually were round. Tldr: conservatives = poo poo for brains.

Trump spent every morning of every day he was president on the toilet watching Fox and Friends waiting for them to mention him, wrong. You do not, in fact, have to give him credit; nor did he do what you are accusing him of.
