Well well, mister fancy-pants, I hope you're wearing your matching sweater today, or you'll be cut down like the ugly tree you are.

Explaining genocide to white people might make them feel bad about themselves, and that’s woke, so we can’t have that.

Don’t you just hate it when woke advertisers won’t shut up about genocide and racism? Buncha crybabies.

a broken clock is right because it doesn't move, and occasionally time conspires to meet with it

Candace has the opposite phenomenon: her clock is spinning so goddamn fast that she can't help but occasionally have an okay partial policy in a vacuum as she swaps from one policy preference to another between morning and afternoon gigs, in service of whatever is convenient for the Nazi poo poo she has to push on stage at that time

Anyone who took them seriously before was a loving idiot, but it’s clear that the Apartheid Defense League is perfectly fine with any level of antisemitism as long as your support Zionism and the genocide of Palestinians.

There's that and inertia, but another factor is that it (along with Discord) replaced community forums for contact. All those stories of people reaching out to the company on Twitter for technical or procedural issues. Threads is phone-only, Bluesky isn't public access yet ("I have to talk to a company rep, let me find someone with a code" doesn't work), Mastodon isn't nearly as scary as it looks but it looks scary.

Twitter was a terrible option for doing that sort of thing even before The Troubles, but it was the option people went to.

Threads launched a webapp a while ago. They also seem to be aggressively tweaking their algorithm to show current/relevant poo poo rather than just random "What's your favorite color" posts from Celebrities

so it's either
-decolonization generally is a bad thing, which is why whites should still be in charge in south africa and rhodesia
-decolonization specifically in israel is a bad thing, which justifies settlements and cutting off civil rights for palestinians

seems like both are terrible opinions!

Elon: All of my posts about suspending genocide and playing #DiabloIV are doing nothing! The advertisers are still bailing!

Linda: I keep posting about #sports but now Disney’s out and all of my old coworkers keep messaging “F” at me…

Elon: Our posts must not be showing up on X properly. Guys get in the Cybertruck, we’re shutting down another data center.

SCIENCE




I saw this weird fucker earlier and it's especially infuriating because his whole gimmick is "What??? I'm simply posting graphs and statistics from studies showing that feral blacks are infinity times more likely to commit crimes and their brains are scientifically different from other races. I'm not SAYING they should be shot on sight before they steal your car and rape your wife and their monkeylike intellect is inferior to that of the pure Aryan! That's YOUR racial hangup, libtard."

Like the entire point is to be race baiting and provide fodder for bluecheck nazis while hiding behind the guise of science. How do you even deal with someone like that who isn't technically breaking the rules but sincerely thinks the numbers mean we can discriminate against other races

It really doesn't surprise me that there are more "temporary" stoppages. They've got some serious issues to fix. My model 3 literally doesn't brake right sometimes, and forces braking when it's not supposed to. Hopefully my 2024 won't have these problems but I'm not holding my breath for the Emerald Nazi to do anything right.

No. This is Musk doubling down.
