Parler apparently has under 100,000 daily active users and falling. It's virtually dead
Truth Social is at like 2M daily active but also gradually declining

Both are probably losing users back to Twitter/X since you can just be openly racist now for a wider audience

Mastodon seems to be an ebb-and-flow around 1-2M based on what happens on Twitter/X

I don’t understand. Elon is a self-described socialist and a centrist. Why would he be the Biden administration’s political enemy?

Spacex has certified H1B visas which aren't a form of permanent residency. So they already know that isn't true. If it's like my industry the issue is they have to be in the US itself and authorized to work which a refugee or aslyum seeker would be.

It was accounts with over 1 million followers. Dril has one for this reason. I don't know if they qualify for revenue though

its a minor thing but the idea that someone is a genius in astronomy, math, physics and philosophy seems like a really childish view of what a "smart person" is, which makes sense because its a meme posted by an elon musk fanboy who probably thinks elon musk is an expert in all those things as well as computer science, rocket science, and human biology.
they also think not enough people are being forced to hear whatever musk has to say and that's unfair

I'm pretty sure it was some accounts, didn't a few people get snubbed despite being over a million followers?
