Is this the new status quo from America’s “most free” social media platform?
🔫 Always has been.
“No, no, don’t you see. When we used censorship on the left, it was truly free speech. Now that, I am being censored, it’s not free speech.”
Lololol "how could they ever eat my face‽”
Also Mr. Free speech and Xhitter is the public square, lol such BS.
“Free speech, as long as I like it.”
The free speech Musk believes in is his ironclad right to speak. To him, contradiction is not speech, and he seems baffled whenever it happens, like he’s just been slapped with a fish.
Musk isn’t confused at all. He’s been lying about believing in free speech this whole time. He’s an oligarch—literally the richest person in the world—who bought 𝕏itter in order to control speech.
Just to be clear, I’m not trying to say that Musk is confused about what free speech is – I’m saying he’s confused when he hears ideas that conflict with his worldview. He cannot process the idea that contradiction of his beliefs should even be possible and that drives him wild with rage.
I think it’s important to understand that Musk doesn’t think of most other human beings as “people” and he does not consider what they say as “speech”. His worldview is entirely solipsistic and the only speech that exists is the speech he produces and the reflections of it that come back to him. To Musk, everything else is the braying of animals with diseased minds.
This take is so very, very specific 😅 Are you a psychologist or similar?
It’s not that specific. It fits a lot of Social Darwinists that were born into money. Most just have the good sense to keep their voices down in public.
The solipsism and all this kind of stuff is very specific to me. Just because it “fits” doesn’t mean it’s actually the case though. Do you personally know people like this, that also keep their voices down? Like, are there any examples to share?
He was forced to buy twitter. He did not want it.
That’s what the media told us, anyway. Maybe it’s somewhat true, but oligarchs buy the media all the time, not because they’re especially profitable but because they’re especially influential. The slippery slope of the oligarchy media model
I wish Twitter would have just left well enough alone.
Twitter is xelon’s personal toy, how did you not know that?
OP, you may want to edit the title of the post. should read “H1B” visas.
Amarica needs more pencil gang and less PEN15 gang
Leopards ate my face
Damn, they’re not even waiting for their guy to be sworn in again before they start the infighting. This truly is a speed run to social cannibalism.
These people always fall in line. They will again. They’re proud of being useful idiots. They’ll convince themselves that this immigration is necessary for the economy, but Trump will stop the bad immigration or whatever. And Trump’s people will brutalize people coming from Mexico which will also sate some of their bloodlust. They’ll fall in line just as soon as someone tells them what to think.
Our best hope for the next four years is that they spend so much time fighting amongst themselves, they’ll be too busy to completely fuck everything else up. I’m sure they’ll try, but god, I hope there’s still a Department of Education in 2029. Lack of critical thinking skills is what got us these morons in the first place, we have enough stupid people in this country already.
Feel free to do a bit of rabble rousing yourselves as well!
Im not sure how effective that will be. Part of the reason they are turning on each other is that everyone else has been so quiet since the election. If there were mass protests right now they would all be united behind having BLM declared a terrorist movement or something, not focused on each other.
Oh no need to have organized protests. I believe we all have agreed that we’re well past time where that will have any significant impact. Besides, it’s the age of information! Fight back in ways our Republican friends won’t understand.
The only use my twitter account gets is dropping “president musk” pics under random conservative posts.
I share your sentiment but I think they will attempt to out cunt each other on being vile, petty children. The will try to be as punitive as possible with policy and neglectful in their duties to facilitate the mechanisms of functional government. And, yes maybe not completely because they are probably not even competent enough to do that.
I’m sorry my American friends but you’re in for some catastrophic shitfuckery.
More likely while the public squabble takes our attention those behind the scenes will calmly remake everything to their design. While we notice nothing but the squabble…
They’re just stealing everything from the left now!
Muskrat, muskrat, candle light.
Doin’ the town and.
Doin’ it right in the evenin’
It’s pretty pleasin.Muskrat Suzie, Muskrat Sam.
Do the jitterbug at a muskrat land.
And they shimmy
Sam is so skinny.And they whirl and they twirl and they tango.
Singin’ and jinglin’ a jangle.
Float like the heavens above.
Looks like muskrat love.
I think the lefts strategy should be to let the right eat itself and just stay out of their attention. Let them get all fucked up on infighting and forget about us entirely.
Their entire ideology hinges on attacking people.
Let’s keep them locked in that room together (twitter)
At some point, people are gonna have to wake up and realize that this strategy will never produce anything but an eternal war of attrition. And in such a scenario, it’s the billionaires who are most likely to survive, because they can hold out longer than anyone else.
Everything but Luigi produces attrition
hahahhaahahhahahahahahahahahah

Nothing new about it Poindexter. This is exactly how it’s been since Muskrat took it over. LoL 😂
Going to be a lot of schadenfreude in watching these fuckweeds eat each other as their egos continually clash.
You mean the “fuck immigrants” crowd isn’t down with ol Musky’s plan to bring in brown immigrants? Who’d a thunk it.
the immigrant haters hate the immigrant? no
As long as you understand Immigrant, and every form of legal immigration, means ‘‘fucking messicans’’ then yes. They hate immigrants. Musk just needs to tell them he’ll only import their replacements from sterling white countries and they’ll calm down.
It’s only been a few weeks since DOGE dept existed. It’s going to be quite a beautiful shitshow.
Who cares what color they are. There have been enough layoffs that there is no need to import any engineers. Besides wanting to exploit them.
It matters to Trump voters.
They just don’t want to pay American wages, it’s as simple as that.
Also HB-1 gives the employer a workforce that has no ability to leave.
is this the new status quo?
Yea but It’s not new.
That’s the thing about autocratic rule.
Once enacted, your say is forfeit and you survive only by mercy of the state.
It’ll be interesting to see how autocracy faces up against a billionaire who really has no need to be a citizen of any nation, and could afford to protect themselves indefinitely.
How are people still on Twitter and acting surprised by fucking anything that happens there? Like… Wise-up folks. You have options.
‘‘I’m here for the porn’’ is the only good reason.
But wait, didn’t they all abandon Twitter to go to Truth Social?
implied sarcasm intensifies
These are conservative Twitter posters. They’re not bright.
Typical conservative behavior. "It’s not a real thing until it affects me directly. "
Ahh yes, the old “vote for oligarchs to have all the power and then get upset when they abuse it” routine. Morons never learn.
They’ll vote for the next republican in 4-12 years, and 100% respond to polling that they believe Republicans are ‘‘just better at economy and foreign policy’’
