Waiting for Spez to weigh in with his typical subtlety and even-handedness... 🍿

    THATS what spez looks like??? I was expecting some corporate looking lawyer type face. This is more like that incel who repulsed girls in high school, and is now in his 40s.....but still very much the same person.

    Such a punchable face.

    Remember last time Redditor's protested only to cave so they could keep being mods? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

    I was the founder of r/TIHI in a past life and u/spez removed all of us moderators because we weren‘t opening the sub as part of our protest.

    I them requested them to take down the subs title picture and logo which I created and they didn‘t even bother.

    Oh yes for the totally unproblematic picture taken at the inauguration, and since it's so unproblematic he can't possibly have an issue with it being posted.

    Although a solid second favorite is him in a punk leather jacket. Mostly because he hates it.

    Can’t musk simply state that naziism is wrong and hitler was a very bad guy?

    That’s right of coarse he can!

    HHHMMM!

    Why?!

    Le epic 14 y/o troll mAStEr mOvE was doing the worst nonverbal political thing one can do and getting away with it without apologizing.

    The centrists accept it might have been inadvertent. He'd never have the lefties anyway and the far right will, of course, absolutely love it. It's the kind of thing a kid in shoes of power might dream up and run by the team and all have fits of laughter: “they can't prove anything if you don't say anything!”

    /fiction /conspiracytheory

    Nice way to commemorate the Jan 6ers’ prison release. And great distraction, as it must be.

    Don't do it as a "protest." Do it as the new norm. Xitter has no worth and should be relegated to the porta-potty of time.

    Aaaand here come the admins to relentlessly bully any mods involved in this into submission. Because the reddit admins are pathetic, greedy little pig boys who don't give a flying shit about their users or moderators.

    Twitter probably benefits from people being redirected to their site from repostings with how it has become the go to source for news like sports, so it might. Won't hurt Elon financially but less people being exposed to the content there that Elon wants to push that don't actively use Twitter is a good thing even if it is only a few.

    Even small moves is a good thing with how over the years sports and game submissions have become increasingly more Twitter submissions.

    Liberals are just sheep. They believe whatever the media tells them.

    That projection.

    My first reaction when seeing the salute was ” oh come on, it can’t be that bad… oh it’s way worse than I thought”

    Beware of this festering pile of excrement that is the conservative subreddit. Ready your sanity and eye bleach before venturing in

    Holy shit. I made the mistake of looking in there. What a festering pile of misinformed louts. There’s not a brain cell to be found in there.

    Yeah that'll show him. I'm sure he's gonna lose a ton of sleep over the miniscule amount of traffic that's going to drop for his shitty website that he bought and drove into the ground.

    Wait actually he cares way too much about how people view him so it might actually bother him a ton. It's hard to say really.

    Either way stop using Twitter and reddit. Both terrible.

    A more fractured internet is coming. Posting sources will be forbidden. Discourse will become more polarized, disconnected, and extreme.

    Most of these Reddit bans on Twitter are also half assed. They still allow screenshots of Twitter posts. That means the content is still spread, and Twitter remains relevant.

    Lots of these subreddits don’t even get a lot of Twitter links in the first place. Like for lotrmemes it makes zero difference.

    That said, Musk and Twitter suck. I have deleted my Twitter account three years ago.

    However there still is some information, where Twitter is a good source.

    Kinda wild to me it took this long but I'm not going to be mad about doing the right thing.
