It's no accident Musk did this at this time, and it's a good thing.

Is Elon protecting the CIA?

I'm more and more coming to the belief that the old farts like Soros and Schwab are rushing things, esp. because of Trump and the rise of the Populists.

We got a:
Gender War
Isolation vs. Hyperintervention War
Genderbending
Woke Onslaught
Ukraine
Critical Middle East Theory
Printing Press going Brrrrrr
Inflation
I'm sure I forgot some biggies

all in play at the same time. Almost everybody thinks everything is going at hyperspeed. Most people on this board remember when a big story was talked about and analyzed for a week or even a month. Now newscycles are measured in hours.

They're losing control and turning to Chaos to keep it.

Again I want to plead that Demoralization and Destabilization comes from ALL directions, not just one.

@Patrick - yes, of course.

Just like our bullshit media is just a bunch of fucking obvious propaganda at this point, that's our "main" social media.

Operation Mockingbird is real. They entirely captured the media over 20 years ago, you think they were going to allow the social media companies to remain free? They are ALL captured. Musk was just brought in to try to salvage some credibility of Twitter, not to actually allow free speech.

Companies constantly lie about their terms of service, they shadowban people, they lie to congress, they promote FILTH constantly, they promote propaganda, and they attack truth tellers.

Who runs all these 6-8 even 10 year old accounts with 200, sometimes just 50, I just saw a 2008 with like 6 followers?

And the account has been a Reply Guy for months on one issue, goes to sleep, pops back in.

There are still a ton of NGO Boiler Room or 50 cent or Bot accounts being run by big Agencies and esp. the one/two steps removed NGOs.

They can probably move the dial.

Sad, Elon says great stuff at times. But this makes him look like part of the machine.

He makes highly subsidized electric cars. Flies military assets into space, and just bought the most popular “free speech” platform (aka government spy mechanism).

Yeah, sure seems like he *might* be part of the machine.

How is it doing on Truth Social?

Elon Musk’s X Now Officially Allows Porn After Update to Policies

If you don't have a huge botswarm criticizing, gaslighting and undermining everything you post, you are just a nonentity.

It must be the rule of propaganda supporting botswarms: they increase geometrically for truthers with the expanse of their audience. They probably have botswarm algorithms for it.

I attended a semi-secret event late last night at an undisclosed location in Nashville. The speaker was Georgetown University Law Professor and frequent legal commentator Jonathon Turley. Turley said, point blank, that Elon Musk has done more to save free speech than possibly any other individual who isn’t a Supreme Court Justice. The professor was referring, of course, to Musk’s purchase of Twitter and subsequent Twitter files disclosures.

Much could be said about all this, and we must acknowledge that plenty of folks remain wary of being brain-chipped. But I would just offer one point, a point that corporate media always studiously avoids in its overwrought reporting about the tech entrepreneur: Musk was a lifelong democrat until California officials shut down his car plant as non-essential during the pandemic.

Here it is, behold, the beginning of the Musk Revolution, the genesis of his political awakening, an astoundingly stupid and catastrophically cretinous communication that was recorded in real-time on social media between witless “proud latina” and Assemblywoman (former) Lorena Gonzalez and Elon Musk, long before the notion of buying Twitter ever graced the billionaire’s hyperactive grey matter:




Now, one massively significant tweet later, lifelong Democrat Musk is deploying his intellect and resources to help Republicans. Here come the chickens! Back to their roosts. I told them, over and over, they would live to regret their high-handed pandemic decrees. But like the deaf adder of old, no matter how loudly I piped, they wouldn’t listen.

Musk has just endorsed Trump!

Musk just demonetized DESTINY for gratuitous insults and ill-wishes against those bystanders shot at the 7/13 rally

Musk to contribute $45M monthly to Trump super PAC

Type "#MAGA" in X

It generates a photo of the "Fight Fist Pump". Going to make leftoids incandescent. Thanks, Elon!

Do Vegas bookies have a Dead Pool going?

Tesla CEO Elon Musk said in a post on X on Tuesday that he never said he was donating $45 million per month to Republican Donald Trump.

I think he's still dealing with relics of WOKE employees of Christmas Past.
He can't be personally aware of every person that gets blocked on Twitter, I don't think he's personally blocking people.

I find it odd that Kamala's official Presidential banner just says.
Kamala Harris for President, and her www addy.

What is bizarrely missing is the year. I have never seen a political banner for President that didn't include the Year.
Which I see as proof, that she has been chosen as a legal place holder until the contested convention can take place. Had they picked Mark Kelly last week, they would be absorbed in so many lawsuits. It would take their whole war chest to defend.
Often I wish the Trump 2016 flags, bumper stickers and banners didn't have 2016, so they could still be relevant after 2016.

New ones are alive and well. Sign or not, this has a 2016 vibe AND Trump is front running.

Just drove through a good chunk of Wisconsin. Not ONE Harris or Biden sign (yes I know he's done). Those signs can be popped out next day and in peoples lawns the following day. If there was ANY popularity I would have seen one by now. Even in IL.

Also the down ballot signs were all Republicans in Wisconsin. I don't know the math on it, but I could see 320 EC's for Trump. As in a blood bath.

The only thing I've ever been suspended or banned for - and it happened at least half a dozen times including losing one almost 10k account - is for Transskeptic tweets. And that was just before Musk.

I wonder if CA law obligates X to delete Trans tweets?

I'm sure he's not personally aware of most Twitter users, but he is responsible for policy, and the policy is to block entire accounts from using the site until they bow, lick the dirt, delete the offending Tweet, and beg for forgiveness. Bad policy.

Not quite true though. Can you really speak the truth about the trans or homo mental illness on Twitter now?
