We as in Lemmy users probably don’t care about Twitter at all. But there are 100s of Millions of active Twitter users, so it’s no surprise this is in the news.
Well, he owns and operates his own platform, where he’s making it terribly easy for fascists to fasc. His space vehicles and communications satellites are being depended on by major world powers. He’s got the largest electric vehicle charging infrastructure in the western hemisphere, if not the world.
I don’t know that many people say that because of the story though. It created many of the cinematography methods we still use today. Before it, movies were generally just recreating stage plays in front of a camera. Every scene a stationary shot framing the whole room. No real transitions. For Citizen Kane they tore apart the roof and floor to allow for a camera to get moving shots zooming into a scene and angles not often used before. It changed the way people thought of movies and what they could be. People do love watching the slow decline of the powerful, but that movie is considered one of the best movies for other reasons.
Citizen Kane is recognized for many different reasons, and that’s one. But, in essence, the story is the film. Wells masterpiece was the result of a feud he had with William Randolph Hearst, so he brought him down on film. Wells also had the strange habit of divorcing wives and killing them off in one of his movies.
Why do we keep giving this guy a platform? Do we really care that much about twitter and his stupid shenanigans

If we as Lemmy users didn’t care, it wouldn’t be posted and upvoted.
It’s sitting at 2 points as the time of writing this. Not very popular
It may only show as two points on your instance. On mine it’s at 34 ups and 2 downs.
Sorry, I’m still learning how Lemmy works! Lol

Like it or not, his shenanigans affect us all.
Because as someone with an obscene amount of money, power and influence he needs to be scrutinised and his every word and action examined.
Some say Orson Wells Citizen Kane is the best movie ever made. We love to see the mighty fall.

It is pretty entertaining…
The media and celebrities continue to legitimise him and his antisemitism. They are complicit.
