Tropic Thunder is so funny!!!

[–] LostCause@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago

Awesome, Mastodon needs some more growth too. The worse Musk makes Twitter, the faster we can get it‘s death over with and move on.

If it keeps people talking and interacting on twitter its beneficial for him. getting people angry is the easiest way to do this

[–] chamim@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

Musk knows that he needs to say/do outrageous things to keep receiving either attention on twitter or free press. He strives to be relevant to those who, for some reason, take him seriously. He's a pathological liar willing to say whatever ridiculous thing makes him appear as relevant.

Because he's such a free speech absolutist.

Dude doesn’t even own twitter. Saudi princes and the Qatar government have a much bigger share that he does. This is all about controlling mass media.

Other parties (including the ones you mentioned) have sizable stakes in twitter, but they are much smaller than Elon's stake, not the other way around. (Remember, it sold for $44B, you can divide that by the numbers in the article by that to see how much each investor mentioned owns).

What a clown 🤡

Really wish people would stop giving him a megaphone

Society is addicted to ragebait. And bored rich assholes are addicted to attention. It’s perfect.

If we could find a way to monetize Musk's fragility, we could make a fortune.

“The words ‘cis’ or ‘cisgender’ are considered slurs on this platform,” Musk posted in response to a man who claimed to have been harassed by the term used perjoratively.

Haha what?

[–] sectorfour@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

He can’t have ya boy spez taking all of his press.

[–] skepickle@kbin.social 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Cis- is just a prefix from latin meaning "on the same side"... the vatican should sue Twitter.

[–] IHeartBadCode@kbin.social 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Chemist So that’s why there’s a difference between cis-but-2-ene and trans-but-2-ene.

Wait why am I being banned??

Also: Man is this that same Twitter place that banged the gong on free speech?

[–] krackalot@vlemmy.net 1 points 2 years ago

They're called fascists. They'll bang on and on about how your rights are being taken away so you should empower them to protect you. Then, the second you do, they'll be the first to take away the rights you thought you were protecting.
