NPR has a few growing affiliate stations that aggressively killed or took over independent stations, killed good programming, fired people, and made a shitload of money for it. KUOW is my sworn enemy. NPR in general is liberal media and is aligned with the state. using funding a proxy for being a mouthpiece is stupid and the whole thing really doesn't have a point beyond spectacle. but if you consider yourself left of the democratic party NPR is not your friend, even though they do have some listenable shows.

A lot of NPR's affiliate stations murdered the gently caress out of leftist radio programs whose stations they took over. gently caress 'em. chinese journalists have managed to wear the thorny STATE AFFILIATED MEDIA crown for years. NPR lost their poo poo immediately. And they lost their poo poo about it because they know they're the ones who are supposed to get to decide who biased media is.

broadcast media in the US is fully in bed with the US government. all the independent journalists have gone crazy, thrown in with one of the flavors of liberal, or are no longer allowed on broadcast media. elon musk is also deep in bed with the US government and whatever the gently caress this sideshow is for, who knows. there's kind of a kayfabe here between the american right and slightly further right and their various personalities and aligned media that people repeatedly fall for even when it gets repeatedly explained to them, tenderjerk, god dammit.

anyway watch this video if you haven't seen it before. a nice cia agent tells the truth for some reason. this is still how things work, except now there are only a handful of media blocs and there's no real opposition who would consider not doing what a nice state official asked them to do.

if you are someone who thinks the us government is bad, the cia is bad, etc but also think that NPR being bullied by elon musk is a problem, you need to get your poo poo together. at least it would be nice if some of you did. also if anyone thinks that the us government is ftw you should feel free to say it here in the elon musk free speech thread. dissenting voices are important and i think a few people may be holding back for fear of getting dogpiled.

Lex Luthor: The Elon thread is full of cringe and fail. Something must me done!

Brainiac: [4 paragraphs of ChatGPT omitted]

You make a good point. Any other suggestions?

Solomon Grundy: Grundy smash thread with image spam!

Bizzaro: Elon musk is right!

I'm surrounded by idiots.

[6 paragraphs of ChatGPT omitted]

Brainiac, you're a genius! We will get you appointed IK of the thread, and then run the exact same gimmick we do in the Glenn thread. Elonposters will rue the day they crossed us!

Twitter is also moving forward with their plan from last year to raise revenue by being a payment processor and having people link their bank accounts to their Twitter profile.

Another idea that will surely not have any downside.

goons asking you to join their discord are people who aren’t mods who desperately want to be mods. they want you to go to the place where they are a mod. they also probably want to use fun gamer words and generally be bigots but can’t here.

it’s very normal and cool. like Elon musk

Musk is charging the National Weather Service for API access and automated tweets, capping the number of automated tweets accounts can send, and limiting how often they can send them in a short-time period.

The NWS has to pay for their subscriptions or they won't be able to use their current automated posting system to post warnings of dangerous weather on Twitter.

I don't understand how you go to speaking truth to power as Taibbi once did to being Elon Musk's lickspittle. I guess the injustices of capitalism just break people's brains beyond repair.

Circling back to Taibbi on Truth Social:

This seems like the good and proper move for Taibbi. Independe t Journalists use social media sites to promote their stories and substacks, but Taibbi is running out of options. Facebook is still #1 evil so Taibbi can't go there. Elon revealed he is a hypocrite and has effectively banned Taibbi from twitter. Mastodon, Tumblr, or Gab don't really have as wide of an audience plus a all three work with the deep state. Tik Tok will be banned soon by the by the evil American empire while the liberal fascists cheer on. That leaves Truth Social as the last remaining wide audience large social media site.

A smart move. Wish others could see that, but sadly they have very few brain wrinkles.
