We love data yes.x.com
twitter.com
You guys like data right? We'll keep pretending the advertisers just don't like anti-semitism
What you have posted is a man on twitter claiming that Generation Lab carried out this survey, but I cannot find the survey in its own right.
He also conflaits 'Anti-Israel' with 'anti-semitic'
Are they definitely the same thing in this context?
I don't think being against Israel bombing civilians is antisemitic for example.

We laugh at tucker. You feel the need to laugh at colonel... Because he laughs at tucker.Is Tucker in the room with you now? Is he whispering frightening truths into your ears so much that you dare not take your hands from your head for fear of hearing them lol. What an absolute horror of a person you must be for any misfortunates that have to deal with you irl
And you then need ti personally insult him (because he laughed at tucker) and say colonel is an absolute horror of a person, again because he laughed at tucker.
Impressive.
I'd rather just laugh more at tucker and Elon but if you need to say colonel is an absolute horror of a person for this then you do you, on your own.

Do you know literally anything about what you post about? He left OpenAI because of what I am saying.

It is impossible for Microsoft to call the shots unless they want to change how the company is structured. Microsoft can influence the part they own but the important bit has no outside influence by anyone including and specifically Microsoft by design.
So I'm guessing you agree that who bought and paid for something effects the levels of trust and honesty?
If so how don't you get that the more people/organisations who buy and pay for something typically results in higher levels of trust and honesty VS a single person. I mean essentially what you're saying is that a dictatorship, where one person is king, is more trustworthy and honest than a democracy where everyone gets a voice.

It is absolutely crazy to say that Twitter is now going to be more impartial and less likely to be captured now it is solely owned by one guy. Okay if he'd bought it and then had it run independently like OpenAI he'd have a point but he's exerting far more influence and control over it than the previous leadership team ever did.
You can argue against how it was run before but as a public company it was impossible for it to be less centralised than it is now solely because of how public companies work.
Anyone who is in favour of free speech and impartiality should oppose Musk's running of Twitter with every fibre of their being. But they don't because as I keep saying, it is about freedom from consequences for posting nutty views and marginalising the actual views of the many. This is self-evident, go on Twitter today and see the Tweets that are amplified under every post, they are always right-wing, always. The bots I get in my feed every day are right-wing. Always. This is because Musk has seen fit to remove all moderation and to allow these people - who were always there - to be made louder than everyone else.
Twitter absolutely was an echo chamber - but the solution to an echo chamber is not to make every marginal voice louder.
Do you have any examples of this? I've just had a look at a couple of BBC tweets, and I dont see where you are getting that the amplified tweets are "always right wing". The top tweet in this one is quite clearly someone who is a leftie, as an example.

Well said
That clip of him telling them to go **** themselves is discussed in that vid I posted earlier. You can sense the frustration in him, he's trying to play cool but you can very clearly see he's cracking under the stress. I give it two years before he completely goes off the rails.

And then admitting that he'll just let it die rather than put any of his own money into it, because he doesn't give a crap about the platform and never wanted to buy it in the first place...
"or anti israel views" so if your against Israel bombing a civilian population who have no control over hamas, then your apparently prejudiced against Israel.x.com

Hamas and Israel seem as evil as each other.... Israel is not all Jewish people though is it, even Jewish people can be against Israel actions over the decades.
anytime time a rocket from Russia lands in Ukraine it's all bad, omg these poor civilians being targeted... hypocrisy
Palestine has had no elections since 2006, and the average age is 19.6
literally almost no one alive in Palestine ever voted for Hamas, basically a kidnapped population with no choice but to show support for hamas or likely be executed....
But apparently it;s that populations fault hamas are in power etc....
Get rid of hamas sure, bombing civilians isn't the way
Meanwhile
Why don't those assets get frozen? aren't some of those supposed to be friendly countries? why not isolate them for funding terrorism? give them sanctions like we did Russia....
All those global assets should belong to the Palestine people not Hamas.
