Elon Musk makes offer to buy Twitter

[Coola Yagami]

From what I'm seeing though, a lot of them are just trolling right now.

I've seen a lot of people that don't really care about this stuff purposely posting stuff like 'there are only 2 genders', 'women don't have dicks', 'Trump is coming back' and other such things just to troll, purposely piss off the woke weirdos and to test Twitter to see if they'll get banned or not.

I haven't seen any people posting the n-word' or any slurs, but then again, I don't check up on those types anyways.

Anyone having a legit meltdown about this deserve it, ****ing first world problemed pampered bitches. People freak out over 'slurs' while I'm expected to be called 'LatinX' and say 'thank you white man, what other opinions should I have?'

[Galactus]

So Musk pays $44 billion to buy a failing business worth about $3 billion just to trigger the libs? What an idiot. I know that's not the only reason he bought it, obviously he wants to control the political narrative in order to influence outcomes of elections so they are more favourable to his bank balance. Even without the precedent for right wingers doing this and failing there's the fact that when Elon tries to play a major role in the running of his businesses they fail. The guy is a good hype man and nothing else which would be tolerable if he wasn't going to allow all kinds of prejudice on his platform to achieve his goal.

Speaking of a good flim flam artist...

Trump is a bit of a prick, and often disingenuous, but as far as politicians go, he’s hardly that offensive and at times even effectual.

There is an argument to be made about the power imbalance between an intern and the president of the United States as well the other allegations of infidelity but what you just boiled Bill Clinton's behavior down to certainly isn't evil.

Trump used his father's dementia to trick him into signing a new will that cut his brother out so he got all of the inheritance. When that same brother (who lived in poverty) asked Trump for money to pay for life saving surgery for his son Trump initialy agreed until he found out something negative his brother had said about him years prior and out of anger he didn't give the money and let the kid die.

The above actions alone take a special kind of scum bag but then there is also the fact that he deliberately didn't rent his properties to black people. Not that I think that he is especially prejudiced against anyone. It's clear he doesn't have anything against women who get abortions (he's paid for at least seven) or undocumented Mexican migrants (he employs many at his businesses) Muslims (he's well in with the Saudis) or even crooked Hillary (he was friends with Clintons for years) but he ran his presidential campaign unleashing a wave of hate against all those groups. Then there is how he literally tried to overthrow an election and when it didn't work deliberately riled up his army of idiots try and violently overthrow the government in an attack that got people killed. But nah he's totally not evil that was totally an invention of the media. Although if it changes your mind he's also cheated on his wives. He was even caught on tape bragging about to trying to cheat on his current wife.

[Coola Yagami]

Honestly though, whatever happens to these people, they have it coming to them for giving so much power to a stupid social media platform.

Yeah, FB might ban you for 24 hours or whatever, but no other social media platform has been given so much power to the point they're afraid 'Elon Musk owning Twitter will affect the election'.

**** those people. They get what they ****ing deserve.

[IndigoErth]

He's been overly concerned about "bots" on the platform, but does he care about foreign interests trying to negatively impact elections with conspiracies, propaganda, and "fake news" targeted at gullible people who won't fact check via more legit sources outside a social media site... That's more-so the power it has, whether he's the owner or someone else was, if outside interests get just as much enjoyment of American freedom of speech on the platform when they don't even live here. Not to mention terroristic groups...

Granted, what's to stop anyone for getting labeled a bot and removed if they still want you gone. Careful not to bitch and moan about the same things too often...

But a lot of that is just exaggerated CNN talking points, from the perspective of a diehard liberal. I wouldn’t even know where to begin.

You could make a ****-list like that for any politician too. With Clinton, maybe abusing his power as president to have a young woman, who worked for him, blow him, while married, and then lying to the country about it wasn’t the worst thing he did, sure…but it’s the equivalent of Trump’s “gram ‘em by the pussy” essentially, except, like, ten times worse.
But you wouldn’t really think that, talking to most of the liberal party these days.
Clinton’s skeletons go way deeper, but that’s the type of incident that people seem to forget, when they go absolutely bonkers calling out Trump for saying some gross sexual crap.

I just used that point because it’s unarguable. We all know it happened. We don’t have to get into a debate about it, like most of the points you bring up against Trump, which are arguable.

It’s not fun defending Trump but the media completely lost all credibility during his term. A lot of their bs worked and they were able to convince many people that Trump was a bigger liar then they are. That Trump is actually more divisive and dangerous than the mainstream media, which I don’t believe in the slightest.

Remember when Trump coined “fake news” and people used that to make fun of him. People would say “fake news” as a way to mock Trump and his supporters.
But…like, the mainstream
Media news is full of **** - he was totally right in that instance. But it got pushed by the media & other concerned parties and people ate it up, as if calling the mainstream media “fake” was just some ******** coming from Trump. Yeah, guys, let’s all just trust CNBC lol.

So when I get sprayed with a wall of “Trump did this and this and this and this”, I’m going to have to pause you and ask for a source for each one, before I take it seriously. Then I’m going to have to investigate that source. Such is the age we live in - the age of misinformation. It’s unfortunately hard to have political debate these days with so much bs flying around. Most of it coming from CNN, CNBC, Fox, and twitter.

Legally, he has. At a critical bargaining time. Though I'd love to get a better definition of bots. There is BOTS, per se. But then there is whole weeds of social media influencing companies you can easily pay that just go and create hundreds/thousands of Twitter/Facebook accounts and put thumbs up on this or that. It's easy to do and companies have gotten in trouble for this in the past, including Paramount. The way they get away with this today is by insulating themselves by putting a few companies between them and the end user.

It's forum full of the emotionally-under-developed and life-angry chihuahuas. Exactly the cohort who would block you out of defeated-rage but then unblock you from time-to-time to see what you are saying.

Either way, the timing of her graphic is uncanny as compared to my recent posts and I don't give Indigo the credit of any rational thought born of her own head, so.....

I know you like her, but you know.... I get the impression that you'd **** a dog if it wagged it's tail atcha the right way. Also, she didn't ridiculously label you as an istaphobe because you out-thought her. So, you know... you're biased.

I think the number of bots posting on Twitter is incredibly indicative of the "outrage manipulation" that has been going on to affect the.... public. It's an incredibly prescient issue. But you know as well as I do that the lefties, especially the brilliant ones here, won't acknowledge that because it would diminish their perceived "numbers" of "just" folks.

Apparently banning people who say that men can't become women is more important than banning actual terrorists and the like. But at least it shows what kind of priorities those people have.

Most people who disagree with woke stuff are not like, though. Neither most regular liberals are genderbender commies.

As for why this **** happens - idiots want to bait other idiots. Given how fragile ego of SJWs is, they could had use more elegant ways to do so.

In general, I am glad that it is happening. Twitter has too much power over humanity and one way or the other it should have been either stopped or changed. Whether Musk will make it less "woke" trashbin or just destroy it with his cookie decisions remains to be seen, but either is fine, since I doubt, anything will be able to approach it in populatiry in a few next years, which mean humanity will be be free for some time. from this crap.

Yeah, yeah, all those "shamans" who were making photos, were a deadly threat to the American Democracy. If all revolutions and coups were like this, none would had accomplished anything.

Also, calling Trump attempting "a coup" and "forgetting" that few months before Democrats supported BLM riots to influence political opinion of population (essentially allowing innocent people to die and lose their jobs) is hypocritical at the very least. Evil at worst.
You are welcome.

You tell me, as it seems you are fairly knowledgeable about Left propaganda on Twitter.

[IndigoErth]

As I'd already mentioned, I rarely even use the site, so you can hold the nonsense. That was awfully defensive though when I purposely didn't mention a political side.

I did stop by it yesterday, first time in a while, looking for that sidebar of trending hashtags, wanting to see if the loons had filled it with awful stuff. Is that gone? edit: Via PC, not phone app, if that makes a difference.

[1987]

Heck yes! Bring Back Bigotry!

I am here for it!

The liberal meltdown of Elon buying twitter and re-instating Kanye is pretty entertaining to see.

In all seriousness though, I really stopped caring about politics, twitter, celebrities etc. Which is why I haven’t posted in a while. It was just getting too ridiculous and distressing, I just simply stopped caring. That said, it will still be pretty entertaining to watch the liberal meltdown when Trump returns to Twitter on Halloween Monday! Can’t wait!

I gotta say though, all politicians are just lying, greedy elite grifters, yes even Republicans are scumbags just like Democrats. I might not even vote this time around, as we learned in 2020 votes can be disenfranchised. That said, I do feel there needs to be some level of bigotry to maintain order in society. I mean come on, women with penises? Men who can give birth? Drag Queen story hour? C’mon man! GTFOH w that BS!

I thought of myself as a conservative the last couple years since the scamdemic began, but I’ve always had liberal qualities. I love smoking MaryJane, I love banging as many women as possible, yes I’ve even hung out with “working gals” before. I like buying and collecting overpriced plastic turtle toys. Hey why not, it’s my money. We work so we can have money for the things we love to do.

I’m certainly no “christo-fascist”, just cause I was against late term abortion but you know what? I don’t care about that anymore. Not like it really affects me if someone I don’t know wants to abort their baby. I wouldn’t want that though if it was my gf/wife. Anyway, I love pre-marital sex! I do wanna get married and settle down someday, but it’s also hard to imagine myself being with only 1 woman for the rest of my life. I discovered porn at a young age and I’ve always had sex and boobs and vaginas and a$$ on my mind 24/7.

I still stand strongly against and condemn forcevaxxing / forcemasking. My body my choice. Take your poison needles elsewhere! Not on my watch. No way am I sacrificing my health and testosterone “for the greater good”. I won’t give into the electric car movement either. F that.

F politics and politicians. Seriously. I don’t care what race or gender they are. I’m still working, living my life minding my business. I don’t watch TV or news anymore, cause whatever nonsense policies all those elite celebrities and politicians are advocating for to enrich themselves, really doesn’t affect me, and even if it did, not like I can do anything about it. Virtue signal all you want it won’t make a difference. There’s an agenda here, no votes or protests are gonna change what the NWO has planned. Just relax, smoke some 420, get laid, and enjoy life.

The liberal meltdown

Remember though man - if you say something to these people and they can label it as bigotry then you've actually harmed them.

[Coola Yagami]

I mean, this is what happens when the pendulum swings the other way. I mean banning people over slurs and actual homophobia/transphobia is ok, but when people were getting in trouble with their real life jobs and such over questioning the vaccine or saying well... real facts like women don't have dicks.

I mean I respect transwomen, but when they try to force the idea that they're 100% women in any sense of the word, and then they accuse you being transphobic because you wouldn't sleep with one, it's going too far. I'm sorry, but they're called TRANS-women for a reason. They're so stuck on this that this is why they're trying to create stupid new terms like 'birthing persons' and 'bio-women' and whatever else just to make their crazy logic work. People getting in trouble because they say men can't get pregnant, it's just nonsense.

They pushed the pendulum way too far to the left. This is on them.

[Leo656]

General Motors "pausing" all of its advertising through Twitter for the time being, other large companies expected to follow suit. In the end, how much "freedom of speech" people are allowed to have on Twitter will come down to whether or not companies like Coca Cola and Disney want to have their ads pop up next to someone shouting "KILL ALL THE N*****S!"

Musk has promised that a "council" of "diverse-minded people" will be assembled in the very near future and that they will ultimately decide what Is and Isn't allowed on the platform. We'll see how that turns out.

It's a shame that so many people will fight harder for their "right" to be trash more than they'd fight for anything else in the whole world, but it is what it is. People Are Not Good.

[Coola Yagami]

Another thing I forgot to mention was these crazies have become so overly sensitive (or just looking for reasons to be offended/sensitive about it) where people can no longer make broad statements about either men or women without them acting like you wish death upon transpeople just because you didn't 'remember' to include them in your statement.

I forgot if it was Adelle or someone that won an Oscar or an Emmy or something and tweeted something like 'I feel so proud to be a woman tonight' and the transfolks tried to turn that into an attack against them.

It's going to get to the point where saying 'ladies and gentlemen' will get you cancelled/fired or be considered offensive or problematic or even hate speech just because you forgot to mention 'and any other gender out there'.

All of this seems kinda caca to me. If we're to take Musk at his word, this isn't about business or advertisers or anything else... it's about making a town square with, yes, free speech. Also, you left out the part about him saying he's going to introduce tons of filters for the people who have no spine and/or pink hair. As in, yes, you can comprehensively go in and choose what things you do or don't want to see. Some weirdo talking about "ni**ers" in some sh**hole town down south, great, you'll never see it. Problem solved.

The alternative is the far left dictating terms and shaping everything ad nauseum.

I doubt a lot of the blue hairs will actually use them though. The problem is these people purposely seek to be offended. They literally can't function without some sort of 'injustice' to fight against even though most of the time it's fabricated in their own woke minds. It's impossible to leave thing alone, they HAVE to seek out these people so they have a reason to bitch about something.

In a true leftist only echo chamber they'd go crazy. They need that kind of 'problematic' kinds of people to argue against and virtue signal about.

That whole 'I GOT VACCINATED' virtue signal thing, while I feel a lot of them feel the need to broadcast it, many of them do it just to purposely rub it in the face of the people that choose to either wait or refuse. Have everyone blindly agree and virtue signal and it ends soon because there aren't of those 'gosh darn ant-vaxxers' to argue against.

I know couple of leftists shitholes and most of the time, their pretend they are infiltrated by Nazis (even though their moderation literally doing anal searches on the past history of their users, even before they had registered on the forum) or just trying to find which users are not in a lockstep with a modern interpretation of their "liberal values", going on internal purges.

So don't worry: they are not bored and neither they will go insane, because, most of them already are crazy.

Naw, I knew some transfolks that just wanted to live their lives. I guess it kinda helps that they pass, so they never faced all this crap. No one cares if my buddy goes to the female bathroom because she passes so much it would actually be a bigger issue if she did go to the men's bathroom. But this was years beyond all this trans-movement crap. Back before everyone lost their mind in 2016.
