That’s what they will do. In our dystopian future our prison population will increase exponentially and they will continue to use as forced labor. That’s how they plan to resolve the labor shortage in industries like agriculture. 

I don’t think Musk is poor but Twitter was never an economically viable company. It actually makes no sense how they have survived this long and even less sense that they have had this level of influence in American culture considering only 20% of Americans are on Twitter and only 2% are active users and 80% of all…

Yeah and to keep it he should have charged them. I really don’t see how this is so weird to everyone. Twitter is a tool which celebrities and influencer can use to gain popularity and notoriety. Chrissy Teigen made her whole career based on clapping back at people on Twitter. Both the celebrity and Twitter benefit…

They aren’t gonna pay for it NOW but I do think before he did pretty much every stupid thing under the sun he could have gotten them to pay for it.

That is a wild comparison. Twitter is a tool influencers can use to gain more influence.

I think he will get house arrest (if he gets convicted) to avoid chaos from his fan base but I also think he is incapable of following the terms of house arrest and they will be forced to put him in a cushy prison and then his fan will become even more unhinged. 

It’s wild how people will come out and cry “think of the rich people!” over every little thing.

Because they get something out of it too: a platform to engage with their fans and get new fans in a way that was never possible before. I am not calling for charging them a large amount. But $8.99 so Kim Kardashian can sell squeeze suits doesn’t seem so terrible to me.

I kinda don’t get why he didn’t create more different color check marks. I think that he should charge celebrities/influencers/activists to get verified plus certain security protections tied into it. Then do a separate colored check mark for corporate accounts, etc. and charge them for that. And then create a free…

He cares too much about what people think of him. I get everyone cares to a degree, I know I do, but this dude embarrasses himself on an hourly basis with how much he wants the “cool kids” to like him. And it’s so clear he doesn’t think his own fans are cool, he even seems to have contempt for them at times. I always…

I have worked in HR. Immediate suspension for a couple months I would believe but firing when most radio host who most likely has a pay or play contract? Nope. And based on a lot of listeners responses to this on Twitter this is not the first time he has said this sort of thing publicly, this was probably the final…

Oh yeah! I don’t have a problem with her being queer, I just think romantically Miranda would have been drawn to someone different personality than Steve. Despite me disliking Che they are more free spirited like Steve (who I love) is. I just could have seen Miranda drawn to a powerhouse attorney type, someone who…

The other people of Japan were busy cheerleading an imperialist war-machine at the time.

Maybe we should all be taking issue with everyone’s war crimes? I am gonna admit I am not educated about the decision to drop the atomic bomb so for the sake of this comment I am going go with the take that the US was 100% justified in dropping it. However, I think the point of progress should be that we don’t…

“this is an emerging story, we will post updates when we learn more about [name].”

As a lefty I demand $100 from every Republican who ever says “states rights” to me. 

He wasn’t fired for this. No one is fired for this sort of incident if it is a singular event. You are fired after many, many incidents like this. This seems like a weird thing to connect but it’s like how Johnny Depp wasn’t fired for the Amber Heard allegations. The reactions to that were extremely mixed and Disney…

They should have taken a long break after Endgame. Given the audience some space and then re-introduced to a world without Tony Stark and Steve Rogers. 

I mean some of us have nuance about these things. With Clint Eastwood I am definitely able to separate the art from the artist but for allegations like these...it actually affects my viewing pleasure. I like to watch actors where I can dissociate their personal lives from what I see on screen. Even for actors who…

It’s too much. And considering how many comics I read as a kid you think I wouldn’t be overwhelmed by all these story lines but I am. I am old, having to watch this movie and that movie and five different tv shows and some are released first in theaters and others on a platform, etc. I just can’t keep up. The only…
