Nothing says “America: Fuck Yeah!” like giving #ClusterMunitions to our allies ensuring that plenty of human being will die brutal deaths, including innocent Ukrainian civilians when said munitions fail to go off until they are discovered by said civilians. The fuck are we doing?

Interesting article from @ZDNET about how #Elon is wrong about “record user engagement.” Basically, it’s saying he’s wrong and provide specific numbers describing how wrong. https://t.co/grB0uGDkwm

[thepete @thepete]

#Elon is all about #FreeSpeech, huh? Stopping people from reading makes #FreedomOfSpeech a little redundant. Limits are how this sort of thing starts.

@Scobleizer You know, in my day, we used have blogs for posts like this. Or Tumblr. Or Facebook. Or…

GET THESE LONG TWEETS OFF MY LAWN!

@AlbrechtEmilyA From my perspective as a man who grew up watching my mom both with and without a husband struggle to take care of me, I know that if I were in a pregnant woman’s shoes, I would definitely think of an abortion as a way to protect my own freedom.

[thepete @thepete]

@AlbrechtEmilyA Aborting a pregnancy is not killing a person. But let’s pretend. Cops kill people all the time w/a much weaker defense. “I thought he had a gun.” vs. “I know I don’t want to be a parent—I will be paying with the life I made for myself. My freedom is gone if I carry this to term.”

[thepete @thepete]

@RealSexyCyborg This is some crazy bullshit. @ElonMusk goes on and on about free speech but his service (T(w)itter) decides a women in overalls is sexual content? Why is humanity still stuck in the Dark Ages? It's 2023 & we're still hung up over how ppl dress, their gender, who they love & more.

I am Tired of the Whining Anti-Woke Folks
Taking a pot-shot or two at the not-so-good gentleman from the Florida governor's mansion along with anyone who thinks "woke" is a bad word. Go read it! Thanks! https://t.co/rYcNgXb9ry

@BrennanCenter Well, THIS isn’t terrifying at all!

Yikes! This is an important read: https://t.co/McV1QqlPMA

@Uva_Be I don’t know… the not-fun side is catching up to the fun side pretty quick. Also the “not-fun” side is exponentially worse than the “fun” side is better. Like every tweet on this platform is helping Elon get richer and do more horrible things. Spreading lies, endorsing bad ppl.

[thepete @thepete]

One thing I’ll never say to myself on my deathbed: “I really wish I’d spent more time posting on social media!”

[thepete @thepete]

@ACTBrigitte I'm starting to think you're not for real. Are you a bot? A Russian Troll? I've got it! You're a performance artist like in that first episode of Dark Mirror. Why else would you say something that is just as logical as "I like Oreos and ice cream. That's why I love fish."

[thepete @thepete]

@ACTBrigitte If you knew him like we NYers know him you would not say that. He's the biggest, big city, fast talking, city slicker conman there ever was. And you folks on the right have been eating up the crap he's been spewing like it's chocolate cake. You should hate this guy.

@GothamGlamourNY @ryanvizzions @jepthie80 Sadly all kinds of awful people "represent" America. Nazis may not even be the worst type of people who live here.

[thepete @thepete]

@GlobalAffairs Still feels like Elon caved to enemies of free speech, to me. But whatever. You're rich and white, I'm sure you know what you're doing.

[thepete @thepete]

@NoHolyScripture But if you think Trump supporters we be capable of understanding the difference, I'm not sure what to tell you.

[thepete @thepete]

@NoHolyScripture Trump wasn't convicted. He was found liable in a civil court. Sadly lawmakers felt rapists don't need to be punished after a certain amount of time. So if it's Trump you are talking about, frustratingly, he is not a convicted rapist. But he does owe million$ to a lady he asaulted
