i love how irrelevant elon made twitter. like the big companies may not be on alternative networks but you also dont see hashtags and advertisements to discuss something on twitter anymore like you used to in the 10s
‘in the 10s’
… man I feel old now lol.
Was wondering when we are gonna use decade names.
Finally!!!
Elon seems to be a deep shit blackhole. The more shit is there the more shit is attracted.
This is the third post I’m seing about this. But STILL NO VIDEO LINK.
it also appeared in some credible news sites wo the link as well. Dont know about the credibility of this one but it has the link
Good, for once people are deciding to limit outrage and not continue to distribute and share things that are false. If we did this with every piece of bullshit outrage bait or weird rumor or conspiracy theory we would reduce some of the worst movements and viral trends we all hate.
I found one that could be it but I don’t want to bring attention to it if I’m wrong.
Disinformation misinformation - you’re Just Saying No :)
in Seeming Violation of X’s Policies
But of course. That is why he bought the company – to become un-bannable.
“Nobody can hurt my feelings ever again!”
[In nasal robot voice] “I.hate.your.face”
“Hey look! It’s Bono’s little brother!”
How could he see me?
“I’m a robot. I love robots. I have a robot vagina.”
Does that mean Musk is a snowflake?
I shall be come ungovernable -A long Must

This is what Biden should have been doing since 2020, it wouldn’t even have been a close race.
To be honest, I’m not sure how posting AI fake videos of Harris would have helped
Wait, what the heck. My comment wasn’t meant for this post?
Was the original post changed?
Doesn’t seem to have been. I figured you were trying to say that Biden should have attempted to outlaw deepfakes and/or fake news, so I took you literally as a joke. Might’ve just misclicked.
Yeah I think I did 😁
I thought X got rid of all of the sane policies that twitter had?
I mean isn’t X officially a white supremacist platform now anyways?
And EVERY single news organization in the US uses it both as their primary platform AND source for news.
Even fucking NPR. What the actual fuck is that about ?
90% of screenshots on Lemmy are from Twitter ffs. It boggles my mind, and I am not easily boggled.
The problem is consensus. No one can make consensus on abandoning the site happen.
Give me very little hope that the world can resist fascism if they can’t stop using a website.
I thought NPR left Twitter when Musk had them labeled as “state controlled media”
They still… to this day… source Twitter in news articles. They still embed tweets.
I hope Harris wins and I really hope she is a petty and vindictive person that goes out of her way to make Imon Ketamusk’s life a pain in the ass.
You don’t even need to be petty and vindictive to correct the situation where a single unelected person has that much power.
Is anyone the least bit shocked at the “rules for thee” behavior from these subhuman pieces of shit? Why are we allowing them to be in charge of anything again?
Because people won’t leave Xitter. Mastodon was propped up expressly as a replacement, but the bird yet lives.
I think this is the reason for all word’s problems, not enough people are willing to give up a tiny luxury (in this case addiction) when that’s what we need to move forward.
Ya it’s too bad.
Even before that - folks gotta learn about Mastodon, understand its benefits, and then be willing to give up tiny luxuries (convenience of not switching, attraction to following uh pop stars & ppl…). At least we can feel a little better that not everyone staying on Twitter has heard of Mastodon ever before in their lives!
Because people vote for them.
I didn’t vote for Elon.
Wasn’t talking about Elon.
The rest of us are.
Inherited wealth centralizes money and power, and egregious hoarding like billionaire level centralized wealth makes people greedy, paranoid, and disconnected from the reality most other people experience.
I wanted to comment “Who watches the watchers” but it’s not even funny
everyday I’m thankful that Musk is not an US born citizen and cannot run for office. It’s the only thing stopping him
It keeps you out of the Pres and VP office, but there are plenty of other offices.
I am so shocked!
(Not)
If my younger self from like 3 years ago heard generating videos can be a prompt away and can make gigantic amounts of misinformation, he would shit himself and probably write a manifesto, but fuck me this is still insane today!
That name should be some sort of verb or something, “lets not Musk this up” or “are you really that Musk?” I dunno something like that
“I sure hope he doesn’t get Munson’d”
I hate it when these articles never include the video. How am I supposed to learn about manipulation if I’m “being protected against it”?
You can find it without them boosting it for free. But you don’t have to watch it to understand the story
twitter?
