Decades of unfiltered right wing radio declaring Democrats as literally evil and propogating the idea of Republicans being the party of God. When your rival is the embodiment of evil you cannot ever work with them or compromise with them lest you be destroyed.

Give me a drag version of Jesus Christ Superstar. I cannot imagine it being anything less than pure magic

People cant stop looking at an on going train wreck

Look i just need Dan and Jordan to get the desk and maybe that skull he had on the desk for a while. After that it can all burn but those guys deserve those things for all they do in putting together Knowledge Fight.

Yea but if someone writes on toilet paper it is probably gonna be ripped. So at that point it is worthless unless you like shit on your fingers.

I mean the debate is coming up. I figure there is like a 10% chance Trump lets it fly tonight.

McTurtle cares about only 1 thing, power. He is nothing if not shrewd. The man would sell his wife out as a chinese spy if he thought it woild give the GOP an edge

A shitty Texas judge that isn’t Matthew Kacsmaryk? Well I’ll be damned.

He disavows it but has ability to get the head of the project to step down. Yea, that makes total sense.

Probably a combination of three things. First hate ages you terribly, example Laura Loomer, Alex Jones. Second she is a child compared to Biden/Trump. And third and finally as clichè as it is black dont crack

Its only real treason if it comes from the Treasony region of France. Otherwise its just called being a rebel.

I dont think his appeal moved all the way there, though it was a federal case so it could have. I think this was a hail mary last play for them to intervene and put a hold on things. Either way even they said no

Alex thinks he is fighting the literal christian devil. Like there is no way to deal with that other than violence.

Also hello fellow wonk

I dont think it matters what Dems do in response to Republican antics like this. All any Republican is looking for is a quick 10 sec clip they can play on loop that makes them look good or Dems look bad. Media has become so fragmented that people disagree on basic facts. It wouldnt matter what a Dem said or did, it will never pierce the right wing media bubble.

The “blue check” system which was previously used to denote verified users were who they claimed to be suddenly became a complete cash grab for $8 a month, even more for companies to have verified checks or sets of them? Then when not everyone was buying in those users were pushed to the top of replies to users posts. This of course caused tons of people to just get blocked outright because of their checks.

Additionally i believe he has threatened to remove some companies handles because they stopped using them most notably NPR.

Now he has floated the idea of removing the blocking feature because reasons? Who knows what he thinks. So the functionality has not changed a ton, for now, the quality of what you get has gone down.

Oh also he made a specific exception and unbanned some user who posted literal child porn

I dont think people are inherently greedy. We are taught from a young age the need for money which in turn makes people greedy. Ie nurture not nature

If people grew up on small farms with only a bartering system, i dont think people would hoard resources nearly as much.

It may be i want to see the best in people but i do believe most people would rather help others than not.

I think there is like a 1% chance rate limits were an actual thing. It really feels like someone fucked something up, caused the issue and the “rate limits” were how Elon decided to try and play it. Then “increasing” the limits multiple times to completely illogical values was the system slowly coming back up. Elon increasing that limit makes him look like he is listening to the users and thus the good guy.

I have not seen anyone complain about rate limits since the day it happened. Other than jokes has anyone seen or heard of the issue?

I would say a company suddenly introducing a major policy change like view limits with no warning is beyond stupid but then again it is Elon who seems to believe he is God’s gift to tech.
