Republicans: “Porn is bad, and it shouldn’t exist, and anyone who consumes it is going straight to hell!”

I think that the problems that Elon and his sycophants were having with twitter - fear of liberal thought control and “canceling” of the right wing, were not actually the problems twitter was having- revenue and long term user growth- and that “solving” the former was in fact disastrous for the latter. 

I still maintain my original belief, that he bought the app to wrestle control over a large platform of people online, is responding to fawning bigots and autocrats by turning it into a safe space for him, is trying to leverage it for power by doing things like “trying” to launch Ron DeSantis’ campaign, and is doing…

Of course we know he has lied entirely about the reasoning, since what he did is not how you solve those things.

Great, now how do I cope with the anxiety about every other way billionaire techbros are going to ruin everything?

So what you’re saying is, I’ll stop watching YouTube temporarily until adblockers find a way to block the adblock blockers?

The loonies cling to their Orange Messiah and will turn away from anyone else. So no matter how much we’d like a younger, more Progressive candidate than Biden, we’re going to get him anyway. And he’s MILES better than anything they’ve got.

With a conservative Supreme Court, DeSantis becoming president would officially signal the end of that freedom thing that so many people love. 

Things like this are why DeSantis’s poll numbers are cratering. It’s become obvious that he has no principles and his governing approach is simply catering to whatever culture-war meme is getting the most current traction. To get a piece of legislation like this out of the current FL legislature with bipartisan…

Why help your constituents when you can keep stoking destructive culture wars?

They could probably make more money if they expanded the Youtube Premium Lite program to more countries. People will pony up a bit to avoid commercials, but what they charge to bolt on the unwanted music program is ridiculous.

Youtube is unwatchable without an ad-blocker. Multiple ads in a 15 minute video, sometimes inserted in the middle of a sentence, volume balance way off. Just, no.

Google makes enough money selling my data so they don’t deserve to get money from me directly. All the youtubers I watch have merch stores or pateron, so I support them directly that way. If they did this, it would hurt the youtubers because I’d stop watching and buying their stuff. 

People wouldn’t be blocking ads if they weren’t intrusive, repetitive and inserted into videos far too frequently.

Here’s an idea-

Thousands of standard Twitter users: “Hey Elon! There’s an ammunition supplier in Michigan with a Twitter account, and he’s posting photos of ammo bags with the names and photos of pro-vaccine doctors printed on the bag. This is clearly a violent threat. We’ve reported the tweet, but it’s been a couple days and the…

Musk is Muskrat. To think I actually thought this guy was trying to make this a better world like 10 years ago. What a joke.

Someone once said that absolute power corrupts absolutely. Elon Douche heading up Tweeter shows this off better than almost anything else. “I’m a free speech absolutist” he says - except when he’s not.

free speech according to right wing shitbags like lonny over here is entirely different from free speech how it’s actually defined.

Despite saying he’s a free speech absolutist everyone knew when he tantrum bought Twitter he’d censor a ton of shit at the very least, the only real reason for him to take it over was to censor or shut it down as it wasn’t a wise financial move. Every platform censors even when it touts that it won’t, especially when…
