Jace, Extat Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 (edited) Y'know if you try to imagine this as some kind of social-engineering mission (sounds like Elon to me) allow me to project Twitter became America. The 10s were defined by Twitter and its dances/reflections of the video-based platforms like Youtube and TikTok, at least here in America. Twitter was also undeniably liberal-idea/communications friendly. That's why y'all liked it so much. I do not think it is possible to overstate the impact of Twitter on American life in the 10s. Maybe that wasn't true before Trump went down that escelator, but it's true now. Liberalism, actual non-neoliberalism liberalism, is a threat to the kind of man who believes that with enough power he can... whatever But entire chunks of American society, entertainment industry, news medias, scientists and artists SOCIAL REFORMERS all depend(ed) on Twitter to coordinate. Elon is no ally of mine, but from my perspective his attack on your communications platform was not only highly successful in shattering liberalsm (I mean look how quick you people are to abandon the ideals that won you things like lgbt awareness and increased rights, all off a single defeat) but he's now scattered the users who are the most liberal, the most vociferously pro-rights and anti-abuse The advertising companies will return to twitter as soon as it's undeniable that Elon won't sell and his userbase didn't actually shrink <so give it a year> The result will be corporate advertising, policy, and general practices lurching back rightwards from where they meandered these past twenty years.

The way Musk is running it will not work internationally. Elon is making an entire platform all about him, that won't be a shield. The EU, amongst many others, will eventually get up and deal with that. He cast the die and it's going to come up snake eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not in 'Murika Not in Turkey and Arabia, apparently. A business doesn't NEED liberal customers to thrive. It just needs customers. Ruh-roh: the entire Corporate Good model was just just following market trends! If I was Mr. Musk's personal attendant (I see myself as a sort of Theodora kinda character, but she was a workin' girl first too) I would advise the following pitch: "So look at how easy the american/european public, and a lot of high-profile individuals therein, were to manipulate with our algorithms. And that's in countries with a legacy of public education and freedoms of information. By influencing what they see, from whom, when, and most importantly; how many times and in what sequence we can reliably predict things like charitable giving, media engagement, investment rushes, food consumption habits and travel patterns. All in countries where men like me have to spend a lot of time and effort pretending we're not doing what we're doing. But you, Mr. President, and you Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, well you're men of more direct measures. Xi doesn't need twitter. He has TikTok. But as I morph fully and openly into Bond Megavillain rather than simple 1st act villain I need allies. That's where my girlfriend Nastia comes in- my baby has a lot of ideas about Jews. She's also literally my baby. I mean she's all grown up now, I mean I'm not some sick fuck going around fucking his baby girl, y'know... as a baby girl... it's just that she'll always be my baby girl no matter how grown she gets. Yeah, y'know what I'm saying Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, I bet you gotta bunch of little daughters running around. Gosh it passes quick, can't believe it's been eighteen years, nine months, and three days since I dragged her passed-out socialite momma into my limo like a funnel spider retreating with a prize. That was an amazing six seconds. And now, eighteen years, nine months, and three days later I get to spend as many six seconds' with my baby girl as I want. NASTIA, WHERE ARE YOU THE PRESIDENT AND THE CUSTODIAN OF THE TWO HOLY MOSQUES WANTS TO MEET YOU! NASTIA!!!!! THE MEATLOAF! I mean yeah, I fuck her.

Zorral Posted December 18, 2022 Author Share Posted December 18, 2022 Why Argentina won. Last week, there was so much demand that they started a Twitter account. It has gained 25,000 followers in seven days. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/12/17/world/americas/argentina-world-cup-witches.html? Quote Magalí Martínez knew something was off: The seemingly invincible soccer star Lionel Messi was scuffling on the soccer pitch. To her, it looked like he was afflicted with a supernatural curse that has roots in different cultures across history, the “evil eye.” So Martínez, a self-proclaimed witch and part-time babysitter, got to work. She focused intensely on Messi, began repeating a prayer and drizzled a bit of oil into a bowl of water. If the oil remained dispersed, he was safe. If it collected in the middle, he was cursed. “It came together like a magnet,” she said. “I knew I wouldn’t be able to cure him alone.” She went to Twitter and called on her fellow witches across Argentina. “Evil-eye healing sisters, Messi is very affected,” she said. “I need your help.” A thousand people shared her tweet, with many saying they, too, were witches and would work to protect Argentina’s golden boy. .... .... After that match, several witches started a WhatsApp group to instruct other witches on how to help the national team. They called it the Argentine Association of Witches, or La Brujineta, a play on “bruja” and “La Scaloneta,” Argentina’s nickname for its national team. “I thought there were going to be 10 people at most,” said the group’s founder, Antonella Spadafora, 23, a witch who runs a convenience store in a city in northwest Argentina. Within days, more than 300 people had joined the group. Last week, there was so much demand that they started a Twitter account. It has gained 25,000 followers in seven days. ... What ya gonna do?
