The ongoing Elon Twitter saga: "insert demographic" melts down

Elon concerned about a US citizen in Ukraine sharing Russian propaganda. If he was Ukrainian he'd already be locked up. If the US was invaded and a non citizen was there spreading propaganda for the invader and been accused of sharing defenders positions what would the US government do Elon?

edit: the community note was added between me copying the tweet URL and posting it here. It took 6 hours for the note to be added.

Remind me again which party and groups in the US are actively passing laws to ban books, and sending out the requests to ban books because they're doing things as bad as teaching actual history not made up fantasy intended to make people feel better about the slaves their great grandparents tortured, raped and murdered, or because a book teaches basic biology or teaches some critical thinking.

I always find it highly amusing that Animal Farm which was banned in some communist countries had a film partly funded by the CIA and the right in US are now repeatedly trying to ban it and 1984 etc.
You're so disingenuous, you mean they're taking books off the school library shelves that teach 12 year old kids how to have gay sex and masturbate, and ones that groom kids into thinking that they're the opposite sex and it's ok to mutilate your genitals because they sometimes play with barbies

Freedom of speech. It's in the constitution. Same reason the Ku Klux Klan is still allowed to hold public rallies with police protection.

Your partly right.
There are plenty of books being banned, even stuff like Watchmen.

What has The Handmaid's Tale, 2001 A Space Odyssey or Catch 22 got to do with grooming kids in High School?


 
Elon promotes Tucker when he releases new video content on Twitter. Are you saying Elon promoting his content does nothing for his engagement? Tucker is a professional liar and spreader of misinformation, that makes Elon complicit.

In the case here he's replied to a tweet and questioned it.

Numerous times now Elon has posted that Twitter is the source of truth unlike "mainstream media". That is bull ****. You can't promote misinformation spreaders and then claim your platform is the source of truth. And of course he does love a CT himself.

So what if he loves a CT himself, he's not the platform and I asked you for context here re: that claim, I think you'll find he's usually referring to community notes and the fact there's an exchange of ideas etc. unless there is some specific instance you're taking issue with in which case link to it!

Conflating the platform owner and the platform itself is a bit silly, twitter often does provide a lot of important context re: current events - just look at the current conflict in the Middle East the Israeli side claims something or the Palestinian side claims something then people spot something isn't right etc. Whether it's the hospital being bombed (which a bunch of MSM accounts immediately blamed on Israel) or Israel trying to hype up some claims re: the Palestinians that stuff is all open to being challenged immediately on twitter/X.com
 
Politicians should absolutely not be allowed to trade in the stock market though.

Oof. Bodied by Shayan Sardarizadeh and caught in 4K!


He really is a sucker for CT. You'd think after numerous replies saying what Liras has done and then community notes he'd drop it but he's clearly been listening to the likes of Tucker and his red pilled acolytes. He'd rather blame "state actors" than admit he's wrong.

When the owner of the platform claims his platform is the ultimate source of truth and yet posts misinformation himself and promotes other accounts that do the same it makes such a statement laughable. Community notes is good, though Elon is now questioning it because he doesn't like the note. Its not like serious news organisations don't have fact checkers though. Of course there is truth on twitter but there is so much more nonsense and misinformation.

Musk doesnt read comments or community notes

Thats how trolling works. You drop the hot take trash from the ass, then do a runner, rinse and repeat.
