Bryce Mitchell reacts to Sean Strickland being banned from the UFC White House event:

"I'm not surprised at all. We ought to be able to criticize our own nation, let alone a foreign nation.

[Israel] is the only nation you're not allowed to criticize. Something's gonna change, because evil empires don't last forever."

X is an ecosystem. It is an interesting place to exchange ideas. At root this requires accounts to say interesting things, and for those ideas to trade around and engage minds.

I think this has declined. I think some manipulation of the platform is obvious. Accounts are being boosted that are pretty flat, others are being labeled as trash for no reason. I don’t think it’s good long run for what this place is or even for the financial bottom line.

I don’t like to complain on here because I view my own account as a privilege. I had about 300 followers 5 years ago. But a lot of us notice that we are being suppressed, and I think it’s worth noting openly.

If I ever leave here by the way - it will be an Irish goodbye. I will just delete the account without warning. I am more and more inclined to do this every day because of the obvious platform manipulation that makes me think business priorities are massively overcoming ‘public square’ priorities. Those need to be balanced.

I would like to come here every day and see interesting people say interesting things. I can still do that - but I have to work at it. I didn’t work at it before. End of rant.

@newstart_2024 Hydrogenated water... wtf?
Is he drinking H3O or something?

Apparently that's very acidic and can really damage your organs.

This sounds like a load of bull.

@the_schizo_wiki @JSM641 @davjamswell @peterrhague @kevinnbass That gets into the realm of "theoretical physics" which is mostly just make-believe qnd best guesses.

Not quite the same as real physics.

On June 8, 2026, I’ll speak on the floor of the House to honor and memorialize the brave crew of the 🇺🇸 USS Liberty who died and were wounded in an unprovoked attack by 🇮🇱 Israel on June 8, 1967. Catch my speech on @cspan.

I just want to give props to this guy's PR team.

@SoundDobad I know this may sound petty, but I can’t stand it when people put photoshop a meth pipe in my mouth. A crack pipe doesn’t have that little bowl at the end. This is why we can’t trust AI. Please make the appropriate edit. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

The SPLC aren't the only ones doing this, they just got caught.
There's money on both sides doing stuff like this.

Mole people? Treasure hunters? Something else?

Police are investigating a string of bizarre incidents involving mysterious groups of people entering and exiting New York City sewers through manholes in the dead of night.

Videos show different groups equipped with flashlights, waders, and other gear disappear underground for hours before reappearing on city streets.

Police say there’s no known threat to public safety, but the mystery underground excursions have sparked a citywide investigation.
