I’m glad Elon bought Twitter and pissed a bunch of people off. I don’t care that it made some people boycott Tesla. I’m not even “MAGA,” and historically not even Republican, but I am American, and I won’t ever take for granted what that means.
There really has become a significant group of individuals who live in the USA, reap all its’ benefits every day, but actively root against it like a bunch of spoiled children. The very fact that they’re even able to do so without a care in the world is something they can’t understand the value of. I’m so fucking sick of it.
I think most Dems do love America, but I think many of them have become way too negligent and spineless in addressing the rise of this cancer that mostly lives under the umbrella of their party. The media has become a sub-human, click-hungry parasite that can’t be relied on to do anything but feed on whichever narrative generates the highest ad revenues. It’s a lost cause. Most people know this, but still, when you don’t actually care about something genuinely, you’re always going to reach for the easy headline. The burger and fries. Earworms are powerful in driving energy.
X was a necessary beacon of light that I think was more important than anything else Elon does. Existential. But it’s still not enough. Many still view this platform as some right wing shithole, which is a shame, because it really isn’t. The core structures of this platform are more neutral than anything else available.
I watch people on the far-right prompt Grok in the comments thinking it’s going to slam down their alley oop, but instead it rugs them and throws points to the moderates. It doesn’t give af about your bias. The more people of every background who on-ramp this platform, the more neutral it will become, because its’ core structure is neutral.
Encourage your friends to jump into the arena. This is the best platform to drive humanity’s energy to the most reasonable outcomes.
Grinding on @Grok all night with the @xAI team. Good progress.
Will be called Grok 4. Release just after July 4th. Needs one more big run for a specialized coding model.
𝕏 is moving to charging for ads based on vertical size, so an ad that takes up the whole screen would cost more than an ad that takes up 1/4 of the screen, otherwise the incentive is to create giant ads that impair the user experience
