His followers all learned the term "based" in 2008 and haven't been able to work out or understand any new slang words since.

run on sentience posted:I can't tell if this is for or against musk. I would have assumed that garrison would support his fellow shitbag. Lot of people are saying this, but it's definitely against. Garrison hates Musk and that's not the first time he made it clear. ... Don't ask me to explain why, though. Garrison's a lunatic. I guess Musk is a pretty divisive figure in different camps of internet loons, and Garrison is from the anti-Musk one.

One thing I will say about this whole ordeal is that if Trump does end up getting unbanned then his comeback tweet is gonna pop harder than Stone Cold's entrance music at Wrestlemania. It's going to be the Elephant's Foot of posts, an instant classic that will endure for all time and I'm excited to see what the big man's been cooking up in interim.

Given he added the ability to buy Teslas with Bitcoin, and then removed it after he "found out that it's not really that green after all", which is essentially like someone saying that they discovered that McDonalds sold fast food after sitting down and asking for the wine menu, there's an above average chance he'll back out after publicly announcing that he "found something" in Twitter's accounts, or source code, or maybe a closet, that means he can't proceed with the purchase. And he'll have like 1000 people praising him for exposing what they already believed, another 1000 crying that they spent their life savings on Dogecoin and now it's going back down again, and the rest posting about XYZ crypto that he should back.

Don't worry Trump isn't coming back, he's committed to the smashing success called Truth Social. A rich idiot wasting 44 billion sure has caused a lot of butthurt amongst the terminally online.

I don't think people could be bothered to update the forum software these days. This and "adult services review" forums are the only ones that don't use the social media groups.

I'm mostly in agreement but I reckon he still has a couple of bangers in him, like a classic band that reunites for the money and manages to squeeze just enough juice out of their comeback single to justify the tour

Lots of coping in this thread. Elon's gonna buy twitter, Trump will get re-platformed, the fascists will be doubly emboldened, twitter will push people towards right wing content and completely suppress anything humane or leftist at all, and twitter will look like /pol/ before long. Get ready for a lot more Marjorie Taylor Greene's in public office.

I love this narrative in some mainstream news site opinion sections that there's going to be some noticeable before and after with twitter and it will "become" a cesspool. Like to me twitter is the place people go to post their stupid hot takes, shitpost memes, dunk on people for whatever, and just generally act like a complete shithead so like what's the difference really? It's the place you go to be loving stupid and will remain as such albeit apparently with everyone greater leeway to do so apparently. Blurry Gray Thing posted:Lot of people are saying this, but it's definitely against. Garrison hates Musk and that's not the first time he made it clear. Make a not of this, because the American far right wing is in it's trolling phase right now because it's generally what they do, but will ultimately enter it's grievance phase with Elon Twitter by some time next year after the deal closes because it's the other thing they do. You'll get to see the entirety of the performance and political theater in the long run. I mean gently caress their entire political and election strategy relies on culture war and the idea that they are forever being censored and need to rise to action, it's not like it's something they can ever just abandon or claim is magically solved by one particularly thing happening and actually stick to such a claim for more than news cycle. That'd make Elon twitter takeover actually terrible for their electoral prospects if they actually adopted a belief that their grievances are now magical solved and they go back to not being fired up to vote for lovely right wing candidate x in deep red state y. barmk ima dog lol posted:Twitter is for dumb babies who want to eat poo but they're too stupid to cram the turd in their mouths and end up splatting it in their eye and they start to cry and scream until their hungover dad comes in, irritated as gently caress, with a box of cereal and starts swatting them in the back of the head with it while saying "Shut up shut up" I'm pretty sure we're supposed to pretend it's something great and a tool for communication and good like the mainstream media continues too to this day. I love how the MSM continues to disregard that the platform is an absolute pile of loving poo poo in practice, that is in large part responsible for the decline of productive civil discourse in Western civilization and it's ability to accomplish anything anymore. Hopefully somebody will make a timeline for the happening of free speech on twitter and can show us all in particular the exact specific moment in time down to the second when we all get our free speech, since there's clearly an exact specific definition of what that means to allow for such a distinction.
