The shitlibs are completely freaking out over Elon Musk.

It's amazing to watch them backpedal on "Private Company can allow what they want!" and especially on the "Blue Checks should be decided in secret according to the subjective and opaque impressions and policies of mostly unknown individuals!"

Lol, now I understand the outrage about the $8 more.

If just anyone can get a blue check, well, that does devalue the elite on Twitter.

Why would Elon have ever thought for a moment that activists could be appeased?

Megacorps: don’t reactivate any accounts until after midterms or we’ll pull our advertising.
Musk: You got it!
Megacorps: we’re pulling our advertising anyway.
Musk: Hey, you do that one more time and I’ll-I’ll-I’ll let people know you don’t like me!

He needs to decisively move forward and immediately release the hall of shame, short term there will be pain and revenue loss, long term the maga crowd will more than make up for it, see Goya Foods. Never apologize or waver to leftoids

Kathy Griffin imitated Elon Musk, complete with Checkmark (some malfeasant still at Twitter?).

Here's how she was booted - and then reinvited:

People are also questioning why hes working/meeting with woke activist groups on how the future of twitter will work.

I recall he once said he wanted to make the radical 10% of the left and right equally unhappy, as he felt that would be where maximum happiness of users would likely be. So that may be part of it - he does want to appeal to both sides somewhat.

But, I also think he knows that many things will work out better if he can genuinely say he made an honest attempt to work w/ wokers. If they decide to be irrational and unable to be pleased, oh well. He tried. I have a feeling he will gather plenty of data he can use to show how he tried, but they acted like intolerant children, which will damage their ability to attack him effectively. So far, he's been pretty good at clever maneuvers which result in a checkmate, and I think we'll see more in this realm.

Journalism is not a profession or a trade. It's an activity that anyone with a smartphone and a Twitter account can do.
The democratization of journalism outrages the elites because it takes away their monopoly. That blue checkmark was their "proof" that they're better than you.

I can hear the reeee this morning

Elon Musk Puts ‘Woke’ Celebrities Quitting Twitter on Notice: User Numbers at ‘All-Time High’

I love seeing stuff like this. It shows everyone how the few highly influential voices with megaphones who call for the demise of twitter, the cancelling of their advertisement revenue, and so on, are just fucking wrong. The real users love the changes.

Make em reeee, Elon. Show people a ripple in the matrix.

Elon is right, its about power. What kind of power? Symmetry of power. But the fight to gain upper hand will never stop, its human nature.

Not sure why video isn't showing up, but it's Ryan Long doing a parody of coping with life after leaving Twitter because of Musk. Pretty funny.

At least quitting twitter is easier than moving to Canada.

Countries are now shooting down each other's satellites all the time,

Any proof of this?

There is none, because the only shooting down of sattelites was countries targeting their own old sattelites to demonstarate capability. We did it in mid-80s (ASAT), Ruscia and Chyna did the same recently. But no shooting down of other country's sattelites ever happened.

F-15 launching ASAT (ASM-135):

Mossad satellites traveling over USA (terrorist EMP pulse or DEW?) were shot down last year off the Pacific Coast and the flaring fragments were observed by many in Washington and Oregon. If a government has a malignant, weaponized satellite shot down, they won't acknowledge it because they would have to admit they had the satellite in the first place. Its like the U2 planes in the day, only in space. The space objects, however, conveniently burn up, although there may be attempts to locate fragments.

No, I won't do your research for you. What happens in space tends to stay in space.

You made the claim. Also, I remember people making fun of Trump(?) for creating the US Space Force.

Right. And the many in Washington and Oregon who observed these flaring fragmens knew these were from "Mossad sattelites" exactly how?

Making claims is fun. Providing evidence is meh.
