kiko Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 43 minutes ago, Rorschach - 2 said: Probably several people have said so already, but this free-speech absolutism of Elon is quite something to behold. If anything, is shows him to be quite the shallow thinker. It's completely wild. Also, if he wants free speech after the US model, the first thing he should do is geofencing his app. We don't want your stinking free speech, at least not in the way you have it. As a result, a free speech app either breaks the laws of multiple jurisdictions or it will be a smallest common denominator. Or a bit of both. This is especially juicy if you look at his backers - not exactly paragons of free speech at home. Since Musk dismantled his team in charge of respecting the laws of others, he should be fined, prosecuted or whatever is possible.

Kalnestk Oblast Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 I uninstalled Twitter yesterday. Mastodon isn't a good alternative but I cannot in good conscience continue to support that company with views.

Ran Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 5 hours ago, BigFatCoward said: no they didn't. I assume this was satire for the trend of having people tweet about precociously political things they keep claiming toddlers say.

The above is first of all satire, as Ran pointed out, and also a clear nod to The Washington Post motto of “Democracy Dies in Darkness”. Think “E-trade baby” in his little finance bro fleece zip vest. This may be a very U.S.-specific in-joke. Wade1865 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if Musk is an American but I know his money is American. And America acknowledges no laws anywhere of anyone. Including those of America.

Zorral Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 He's an apartheid South African, from a family of them, who enslaved, robbed, murdered, tortured, to extract and plunder the region's resources for Themselves. That's how he got richER in the US. Like the dump he depended on the money his criminal ancestors made. Nor does it escape notice how liars prefer other liars. Though it doesn't escape notice that these liars will fall out and fall on each other, once They believe the rest of us are sufficiently cowed and sucked dried. Even without that, as we see throughout histories of pashas and emperors. DireWolfSpirit 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zorral Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 Don't know what you meant. He wouldn't have gotten his trajectory to billionaire in the U$ w/o that apartheid plunder, is what I meant. ~~~~~~~~ Refuse to click to open or read any twits embedded and / or sent to me. Told Partner this applies even to those made by AOC which Partner always forwards. Even though what she twits is usually smart, entertaining and appropriate. But anyone twitting is aiding and abetting. DireWolfSpirit 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, anyone could be a Nazi, whether they be gay, a woman, or disabled, poor. Are you one of those people who thinks black people can’t be racist or did you merely assume I was and tried to gesture at some imagined hypocrisy for calling a man spouting Nazi rhetoric a Nazi? More: you think what Kanye said on Twitter shouldn’t have gotten him suspended at all? That it wasn’t Nazi tier?
