Isn’t that just a hate site? Idunno what kinda reason anyone’s expecting but if one comes I doubt it’ll even be amusing.
kiwi farms has murdered multiple people by tormenting them until they commit suicide. The worst that happened to them was a few small governments blocked them and cloudflare decided they were going to skip on a bill and dropped them. And then a different CDN supported them
twitter is still used by countless brands and influencers. And it has a large userbase of people who “won’t let elon win” or “understand that brands can’t abandon the site”. So elon et al could actively start beheading people on camera and nothing would happen.
Yuuuuuup.
twitter walks back misgendering policy…
Hey! No deadnaming…
How could it be a deadname? The website is still twitter.com.
It doesn’t mind! … Unless required by local laws!
It will always be twitter for me. Maaaybe xtwitter.
Xhitter
Roman numeral 10.
As with so much of what happens at X, there is significant confusion about the policy as the company’s rules seem to change based on the whims of Musk rather than a considered process.
Here is what I assume happend:
Elon, desperate for approval from his “fans” personally changed this, because almost all the people left on twitter that engage with him are “right-wingers”. And they dont want to be held accountable for being vile garbage.
And so they, like the most fragile of snowflakes, started to whine about having to follow basic rules of human decency for once in their online existence, making them deeply uncomfortable.
And Elon followed suit, because these are the only people he has left now. People who exploit him for his position and clout, just as he exploits them for small ammounts of dopamine, when they applaud him for making the worls worse again.
I’ve noticed that healthy people get upset at being wrongly accused. The most vile and guilty get violently and angry at being tightly called out for being exactly what they are.
Elone Musk walks back…
Bullies getting bullied. We have opened the gates of hell, and the meek can stand up and defend themselves or continue to be fodder for the machine Defense is not offense.
American problems😒😒
Which they have been exporting for a long time.
Nah, I never got into Twitter.
I have real American problems, like the fact that Americans have abandoned the most patriotic beverages ever!
Tea and Cider!
George Washington would never have been general or president without cider! Tons of Cider! (NOT beer- that wouldn’t get as popular until later!)
Johnny Appleseed was NOT planting eating apples, either.And now, most cider is kinda crap, and is going to give you a hangover. Its so difficult to ensure that you get a good drinking experience for your friends when trying to share with them the wonders of America’s first brew of patriots.
And What about the Boston Tea Party?
The South at least keeps the dream alive with iced tea that it doesn’t oversteep. (that’s how you can tell if somewhere is Southern, btw- if they both have iced tea and don’t brew it to bitter hell) But its still not a proper American fixation on reasonably priced tea!
THIS is a true American issue
Good. Let people say what they want.
I assume you wouldn’t mind if someone went to all of your neighbors and told all of them you were a pedophile.
Let people say what they want, right?
Slander isn’t the same thing as being insulting. I couldn’t take you to court for calling me Stevie or telling everyone to call me Stevie.
I think twitter is stupid. I think the policy is stupid. I don’t think bullying people on any platform just to bully should be tolerated. Still though, that’s a whole different idea there.
So when you say “let people say what they want,” you mean, “privately-owned companies should be forced to allow people to say whatever they want unless it’s slanderous.”
You’re talking to the wrong fella. I never said that.
Sorry, I thought you were the original person I was talking to.
That’s fine. I’ve done that more than once myself.
Agreed. The hypocrites here are perfectly fine unjustifiably calling people they disagree with fascists, nazies, pedophiles etc. but then lose their shit when someone misgenders somebody. Some people are assholes - deal with it or block them.
Listen to yourself. You don’t even know the difference between plain old name calling and actual bigotry.
“Nazi” or even “pedophile” is not the same as calling a trans woman a man for the same reason that it’s not the same as calling a gay man a f- or a black man a n-. When you insult someone for an innate quality about themselves that harms no one, you’re a bigot. It’s really that simple and it’s sad that you don’t understand that.
The key qualification in the comment you’re busting is the word “unjustifiably.” It is pretty easy to justify calling people fascists or Nazis based on the subject’s own behavior. You can’t justify bigotry with anything but hatred.
