This platform has gotten so gross that I figure I should probably at least try to be a normal person with reasonable values and hope it doesn’t go full Fascist.
@funsizedspud@CBSNews I mean, if you drive a truck, or work a service counter, or answer phones, or work in a factory, or myriad other jobs which will soon be easily replaced by a combination of AI and robotics, your job won’t be needed either, but whatever.
@TheRichFromCali Absolutely not. @elonmusk deserves to be thanked for giving us an opportunity for discourse, and if it doesn’t work out we all move to Threads or Signal or whatever the next thing is. He owns “X”, but not thought itself. He is not well, but we are.
@timburchett I am a fan of your candor and skepticism, @timburchett, but ultimately you hold the purse strings. Let’s support both causes. We are powerful enough to heal our victims and repel Russian aggression as Reagan would have demanded.
@ThatEricAlper Alien. I saw it just a bit too young at a birthday party. The consequence was my friend’s mom putting me down in another room with a puke bucket.
@UnrealBluegrass@elonmusk To be fair, I don’t think @elonmusk is a clear and present danger until he hides our comments. But there is a clear and present danger if we don’t call out his disinformation and support for fascism in exchange for tax relief.
@MilaLovesJoe I will absolutely keep shopping at Home Depot, but not because of an owner’s political views. I will shop there because they give opportunity to the middle class, and regularly give space for migrant workers. You must know that if you support them, though.
@tommysantos14 I hit a similar point today. I really don’t enjoy social media. But, it is a gift to be able to voice opinion to a large audience before it is too late. So, while it is the venue for disinformation, so too can it be the venue for discussion.
@jimstewartson The core of the message from @elonmusk here is great. Vote. Vote like it could be your last election. (It won’t be, no matter who wins.) But, we should vote. Maybe, Elon and J.D. Vance are secretly running long game? Vote your interests.
@AccountableGOP Projecting. Onto a screen for an audience looking for affirmation. Because, projection and victimhood is what some have seen from role models. Meanwhile, they kick ass and work hard for their kids and spouses.
@SethAbramson It’s kind of got a Nosferatu vibe. Like, Ozzy should have bitten off Elon’s head. Trump is so self-obsessed that he doesn’t know it happened.
@BGatesIsaPyscho Guys…I know beautiful lights in the sky can be scary, but you are focusing on something easily explained and inconsequential. We have proven weapons which can end life on this planet in under 30 minutes, but you are obsessed with radio waves and the ionosphere?
@_tlr_ I’ve played around with releasing music in an app. It’s normal and expected to push out an update to an app. You can have different mechanisms to unlock new tracks, just like how games have next levels and in-app purchases.
