I don’t get it, what’s so bad about blue checkmarks? I know you can “buy” them now, but what of it?
I think ppl with blue check shitting on elon and twitter were being called out for paying and supporting him.
People (rightfully) shitting on Elon were forcefully given blue checkmarks and now they can’t hide that mark so that it looks hypocritical.
Get the pitchforks!
I’d think that once you’re at the level where you not only stick around in the dumpster fire, but also willingly give your money to this manchild, you lack the awareness needed to see how bad a blue checkmark looks on you anyway.
Only other twitter users see the blue checkmark. The people who think it’s dumb aren’t around.
FYI: Blue checkmarks were a thing LONG before paying for blue checkmarks was a thing. In the end, I think most people who are making an issue out of this aren’t even twitter users (let alone checkmark users) themselves.
Nobody is unaware of that. It’s just that before Musk took over, the checkmark meant something completely different. What it means today is potentially embarrassing enough for people to want to hide it. Now they can’t.
Before Musk the checkmark meant “This user’s identity has been verified and they are notable enough to need that verification”.
Today it means “This user pays for Twitter”.
Seriously, I don’t understand tgat person’s point. Before elon the check ment “yes this really is Billy West, voice actor for a lot of things”. It wasn’t a hard concept.
Okay… 🙃
