Under Elon Musk, X/Twitter has become a landfill...

[Archae]

Full of garbage.

I just came from it, and all I saw were conspiracy theories, anti-Democrat lies, racism, anti-Semitism and women thrusting their big boobs toward cameras.

And the bosses (including Musk) wonder why they are losing people to Bluesky?

Trust me, I know.

9. Hmmmm ... that is an ambiguous phrase, isn't it ?

In one sense, aren't they all big boobs ?

3. And drumpf rose up out of that landfill like some kind of trash monster.

5. I love how on Bluesky you can block trolls

I usually make a snark comment back to them and then block them !

And I know they’re disruptive trolls because there’s no profile pics.

6. Twitter is what you make it - who you follow

With over one million Americans on Twitter - mostly younger 18 - 45 - I think Dems might want to stay on Twitter to influence the young . I think all the Dems leaving Twitter contributed to our loss.

7. I think there is a happy medium, and that was pre-2019

In my opinion, prohibiting politicians and certain frivolous Covid conspiracy theories from 2020 to 2022 was an error. Conversely, it is outrageous to permit individuals espousing Nazi ideologies to disseminate their hateful rhetoric like they allow now.

Although I have reservations about the evolution of Twitter from 2020 to its current iteration as Twitter/X, I would prefer a return to the regulatory standards that were in place in 2018 and earlier.

10. But Musk can't take away the good...

...and I follow a number of accounts that uplift, inspire, and educate. Elon Musk may lie and grift, but Elon Musk doesn't have the power to take away with the good that people are doing, and there are a LOT of people doing good.
