How dare Media Matters checks notes tell people what Elmo said. The monsters!
Your Honor, I object!
On what grounds?
On the grounds that the truth is devastating ….
—with apologies to Liar Liar…
“STOP BREAKING THE LAW, ASSHOLE!”
The truth is an absolute defense in matters like these. Musk’s thermonuclear lawsuit is going to go off like a damp squid.
is going to go off like a damp squid
Excuse me?
Oh the delicious layers to this.

It’s not so much about losing advertisers, it’s more the advertisers he’s losing. These companies are the heavy weights that he can point to for legitimacy. He rightfully wins dumb shit of the week.
He wins that title almost every week 😅
You’re the king Elon.
Eh, he had a quiet period in there for a while.
Is this like the time Kanye went “death con” on the Jews?
I think Musk is just a horrible human instead of being severely mentally ill.
I don’t think being mentally ill makes Kanye antisemitic. Just makes it so he doesn’t hide it like others may do.
People who are severely mentally ill are far more likely to form negative conspiracy theories that they would have never believed when medicated.
I mean, do you think that all schizophrenics who think the government is tracking them through their teeth fillings actually belive that?
If you’ve ever known someone with a severe mental disorder like bipolar or schizophrenia, then you’d know that they’re not themselves during an episode.
Hell, even neuro-typical people experience this to a degree. Ever been at a railing with a huge drop and suddenly get an urge to step off? That’s called the Call of the Void, and it’s a pretty common phenomenon.
The way a person acts during a mental health crisis is not indicative of the kind of person they actually are.
A little of column A, a little of column B
Some kinds of mental illness can cause horrible human syndrome.
My grandpa was a nice, sweet guy until he got old and developed a degenerative neural disorder that ate holes in his brain and made him an awful person to be around for the last few years of his life.
I’m so glad the entire Kanye thing missed me.
For anyone wanting to read the batshit nonsense statement attached to his tweet, here you go
So Media Matters doesn’t reflect the user experience on Twitter? Cause I left Twitter because there was nothing but far-right propaganda on my feed. That was my user experience, Elon.
I have a few accounts that I go into once a month just to keep active on the longshot chance that one day he’ll give it up and a sane company or individual will take it over and clean house, and suddenly all of them have started getting these purple star notifications promoting updates from random accounts and probably 90% of it is rightwing nonsense like Elise Stefanik to far worse. A few of my accounts don’t have any blocks or mutes set, and almost all content in the For You section are from accounts I’ve already blocked in the ones I’ve actively managed. He is fucking delusional.
edit: I just went through to see what’s collected lately and several of them are getting purple star updates from Trumps and fucking catturd.
It also doesn’t matter what they did in order to “magnify the impressions” or whatever bumcrap, because that’s ultimately not why advertisers are pulling out. All MediaMatters did was cast a light on what was there.

Imagine if that 44 billion was spent elsewhere
It will be.
X is going to go out the same way it came in: amid a sea of lawsuits, idiotic decisions, stubborn ignorance and smattering of bigotry.
How does this all work? Do his handlers have a certain timeframe for twitter.com to go offline? Is he given creative freedom to express his inner and outer child, or is there a tight script? I have so many questions.
good thing the semi has thermonuclear explosion proof glass.
