More circus and bread. Classic move
Big Macs, M4 Macbooks and AI Slop about the danger of woke to human civilization.
No no, guys, you’re misunderstanding. He MEANS there’s too much negativity from people saying things like “X sucks since musk bought twitter…”
He’s going to change those people’s tweets to say “X is great!”
And by that I mean he’s going to have a team to edit tweets that he doesn’t like!
If that’s not free speech, then Musk doesn’t know what is!
A team? You mean ChatGPT?
…also yes.
This is exactly what he means.
Next up the sanctioned daily hate.
This has nothing to do with Twitters image. He could have enforced that decision sooner if it was. This is about Trump. The negativity was helpful during Bidens presidency. Now that Trump is about to take over everything has to look like the world is happy again. It’s political manipulation.
It is all good now. Our elections are suddenly secure and our economy is great!
Closing the shop will achieve that goal perfectly.

If there’s going to be fantasies about murder, can his whole posse go out?
This is a fantasy about suicide but… yes.
It’d be great if they all got together for Jonestown 2.0.
Gotta catch that starship to Mars!
If someone were to poison the food at mar a lago, that person would have done more for this country than anybody else in the past 50 years.
Wish I could know what this said before it was censored
It said basically the equivalent of musk should piss on the 3rd rail. Mods arbitrarily removed my comment, probably because it included the phrase ‘kill himself’, while allowing these various replies that aren’t qualitatively different. Mods do need to feel important.
Esteemed fellows as regarded as they are do have to show a presence I guess. There are no good billionaires afterall
Check out the mod log.
Just looked: regardless of your personal opinion the comment is a breach of the terms of posting. It essentially said Musk should permanently retire himself from life.
First things first, the nah-seas were also good people? Is that Elong’s message of hope?
Maybe he wants X to be more MAGA friendly? Like maybe just empty the swamp and replenish the swamp monster?
He wants to be more inclusive. More types of nazis.
Reading the title I thought he’ll retire.
negativity about him.
Yeah the best thing Trump can do for himself is Epstein another friend
Instead of “bad” you have to say “ungood” from now on.
Double plus ungood!
“Maybe if you tell me the bad news in a good way, it won’t sound so bad.”
The bad news in a good way. Yes, I can do that. The bad news in a good way. Well, here it goes…
He’s shutting down his account?
No he’s gonna ban anyone who disagrees with him.
That ain’t going to turn down the negativity though
Before even reading the comments I predict it’s all negative and cynical because what ever Musk does needs to be opposed.
Maybe the people here feel personally threatened because negativity is all you have to offer.
I’m curious whether Truth Social will acquire Xitter, or vice versa.
And when.
He’s such a fucking baby
I thought the whole point of being right wing was being negative?
When your whole identity is consumed by boundless, baseless, joyless hatred of “the other”, yes, you’re gonna be negative.
I don’t believe Musk is controlled by any of that though. He might share in it, but it doesn’t quite dictate him as much as it dictates those in actual misery. For example, he isn’t actually opposed to letting immigrants in, if they’ll make him richer. He’s motivated by greed and grift, and no small helping of pride.
I suspect he just doesn’t want people criticising him and his cronies. Particularly when they inevitably start enacting policies that affect their base negatively (we’ve already seen our share of face-eating leopard voters shocked to find out that their face isn’t off limits), social media could help pissed off people realise how many others are pissed off too. I don’t think I need to spell out why that could be dangerous for him.
Better to quell dissent entirely. If nobody can complain about the government, it’s harder to organise against it. Suppress criticism, censor the media, manipulate what you get to see to shape your view…
(Obligatory note that calling a dictatorship communism doesn’t make it less authoritarian than a capitalist dictatorship. Red boots hurt just as much as any other color if they step on your neck, no matter how tasty they might be. That has nothing to do with the topic, I’m just bracing for tankie whataboutisms.)
I was being slightly sarcastic cause right wing folk seem to be very negative, or nostalgic, but in a negative sense. But I get your point.
Oh you’re absolutely right, I just felt like spelling out the subtext of “Musk isn’t in it for the right wing mentality, just for the power” that I thought you were hinting at but left unsaid. I wasn’t trying to contradict you at all, but rather to expand on your setup.
I appreciate the comment cause it’s definitely something I haven’t considered enough.
