  1. Just in case anyone was still running around out there believing Jack Dorsey was somehow a reasonable person who just got played by bad ol' Elon:

    Your call whether you think he's a fan of #RFKJR because he *likes* his particular brand of political inanity, or whether it's a roundabout effort to delegitimize Democrats by boosting a candidate who would give Trump some serious competition for "most unhinged President" if he somehow managed to win.

  15. @birchtree Most generous take I can come up with: they're desperate for revenue and throwing everything at the wall to see what sticks. If there's too much backlash, they'll reverse course with the typical "we heard you and listened…" crap.

    The underlying assumption seems to be that 'brands' (who often use the API via apps) will pay for access to an audience, and won't leave or have someone post manually. Don't think that's a safe assumption, but we'll see.

    "Twitter might have had a reputation as a left-leaning workforce, but there had always been a faction that disapproved of its progressive ideals. On Slack, some of these workers had formed a channel called #i-dissent ... [one wrote] “Elon’s my new boss and I’m stoked! ... 😅 🚀 🌕”
    This employee was cut during the first round of layoffs. Soon, all the prominent members of the #i-dissent Slack channel would be gone."

  25. And, this was before #ElonTwitter. Non-paywall article.

    “Congressional investigators found evidence that tech platforms — especially Twitter — failed to heed their own employees’ warnings about violent rhetoric on their platforms and bent their rules to avoid penalizing conservatives… The draft report details how most platforms did not take “dramatic” steps to rein in extremist content until after the attack on the Capitol, despite clear red flags across the internet.”

  31. I told myself I'd never log into Twitter again… but I didn't say anything about not slamming the login form with a bad TOTP value a few dozen times when I hear they're basically DDOSing their own infrastructure, just for shits and giggles.

    It’s pleasantly surprising how many have and are moving here. The #fediverse without software fed timeline makes so much sense. Being able to view/search across home timeline, local, or federated is more naturally social.

    #ElonTwitter data certainly, AND likely targeted manipulation also, will be for sale.

  44. CW: strong #birdsite opinion

    Excuse me. But #elonmusk is a #birdshit dangerous malignant narcissist using #ElonTwitter as his personal “alpha” manipulator playground. Gaming his troll, fanboy and algorithmic influence to perpetrate psycho-cyber #gaslighting. We must assume the whole platform is malicious and for hire.

    Visits are decreasing as time passes. Less the once day now. I do like to check on thought leaders and journalists I don’t see on Mastodon yet. Often get sucked in by some cross posted retweet. I also think it’s important to monitor the massive gaslighting that is #ElonTwitter. I hope psycho-cyber warfare specialists are watching, documenting.

    I do when face-to-face and via comments, social media, and my vote.

    Many journalists, plus experts in fascism and authoritarianism have pushed back on #ElonTwitter’s recent Hunter Biden #TwitterFiles agitprop a lot. Very effectively.

    We all know GOP House committee investigations will be ugly. Much hinges on witnesses being strong and credible, plus Dems questioning and rebuttal. I bet they’re ready.

  53. CW: #birdsite - performative reality gaslighting

    P.S. I bet #ElonTwitter “war room” communications are way more malicious and uglier.

  54. CW: #birdsite - performative reality gaslighting

    Seems Musk has produced the show he wants. @[email protected] — gaslit (or in cahoots?) — is ready to dance this jig. Just what Musk thinks he needs to catapult #ElonTwitter deep into his raging #hellscape of ‘free speech’. Under cover of the distraction and incitement of a staged episodic ‘reality’ show trashing pre-Musk #twitter. “Tune-in”. All by data mining and releasing internal corporate communications.

  55. @drvolts

    Seems pretty clear the new foundation of #elontwitter will some kind of mash-up of: extremist hate + delusional gaslighting + a home shopping network + gadget ads + infomercials + late night paid religious programming.

    His “town square” vision? Maybe he sends way too much insomnia addled nights with the TV or while surfing clickbait websites?
