  1. That goes along the lines with what I just replied above...at least he's owning the fact he's saying he's going to shadowban certain accounts/tweets and the people will know he's doing it. They can choose not to trust or believe him, but at least it's out there and more information for people & advertisers to make their own determinations. The problem with the last few years is Twitter was doing the exact same thing but telling people they weren't. I don't see how that's hard to miss.
  2. I don't disagree with a company's right to enforce their own TOS but that argument falls apart entirely when you can easily see that they heavily lied about what they were doing for such a long period of time. If Twitter felt they were right in what they were doing at the time then they should have just owned it.
  3. That's my general thought. Happy for Griner but a 1:1 swap for an international criminal known as the Merchant of Death seems a little....unbalanced. It seems we could have gotten quite a few Americans out as part of the deal...but then again WTF do I know.
  4. I could use a copy of that card myself.
  5. I watched The Airport last night and I absolutely never remembered it being mentioned that Elaine had a sister in St Louis. Was that ever mentioned before or ever again outside of that one episode?
  6. Do you know how much duty is?
  7. I’m gonna say they never discussed accuracy and went with a number that would make sense and go over most people’s heads.
  8. 2023 thread already? Ok I’m in.
  9. We had a close friend’s mom pass away similarly but from some really advanced stage mesothelioma. She found out and was dead within like 7 days. I’m sorry about your mom.
  10. Ok, Phony Stark is a way funnier nickname than Elmo or whatever some of you all have been calling Elon.
  11. “They’re for my wife.” “Yeah.”
  12. We’re gonna need some more FBI guys, I guess.
  13. Thanks. I’ve been around here long enough…not a troll. Sorry to share a different viewpoint than yours. Amphetamines.
  14. But you can respect free speech and what that means and that others may have a different opinion than yours? And for the record and this is my last post but my personal opinion is mostly in line with yours. I don’t mind opposing speech or viewpoints in our great country and don’t think it’s typically as “hurtful” as people make it out to be. What a cluster we are in.
  15. You seem awfully caught up in Hunters dong or dongs in general. Please understand that’s not what the rest of us are trying to discuss.
  16. “Just weren’t allowed to use Twitter.” Yeah, suddenly, and for reasons that make no sense and should be concerning to people who may not think about precedents. You say this as if removing a media company from sharing their content with over a million people, probably a large % of their base, is a nothingburger. That’s really all I was talking about, I’m not sure why you are spouting the other shit except I guess you want some rep points from someone and think you got a pwn.
  17. The only place I’m coming from is I’m trying to separate “obviously inappropriate” from “questionably inappropriate.” I think we need lines between the two and they aren’t the same thing. I’m just not explaining it very well with this group, lol.
  18. I never said the NYP was “unapproachable.” I think you mean irreproachable, but I never said that either. In hindsight, wasn’t it later proven as verified? Didn’t CBS and other outlets recently start discussing the broader topic? I am NOT one of those people you describe. As I said from the beginning, my whole point around this is that I don’t think the NYP as a news outlet should have been suspended from Twitter for a story they posted. A different standard was applied for their story, and why that happened is what I think is important and how do we prevent it from happening again…again from a Musk-owned Twitter who may try to silence a story negative towards him or something he favors.
  19. That’s the point I made in my own post and why I said I knew you knew that. You didn’t need to cut out the rest to try and make some other point…this is a discussion not a contest.
  20. Well I think that’s the point being discussed now, right? I’m quite sure the FEC didn’t have the full scope of what happened at their disposal which is what makes this latest data release interesting. You are reaching. In the CR world that’s about 40 flavors milder than vanilla.
  21. “Not get called out.” You are a dumb fuck so neg me all you want. Have a post on Elon Musk where 800 posts before me discuss the same shit, yet somehow I came here to be political…which obtw I never did. It’s impossible to have a discussion on this without there potentially being some lines to cross which again is why I said I was mindful of it.
  22. As I said, my issue has NEVER been about the laptop. As I said, I don’t GAF about the laptop. For some reason you keep going back to that.
  23. Oh get the fuck out of here you clown. This is a Musk thread where most think he’s a dipshit and lines are being crossed given what he’s doing now.
  24. Well I really, really don’t want this to be CR talk. The NYP may have been moderated, maybe (I’m not sure of specific examples), but flat out suspended?? I don’t recall seeing where that happened prior to the laptop story. It’s why the whole thing was such a fuck up on Twitter’s part. And the rest of what you said is 100% conjecture.
