Meta Mistake - Social Media Is Sucio

[Byrthnoth]

It is week 2 of Musk owning Twitter. If he wants to affect that outcome, tweeting is still his best bet. I think he is more or less a rich person doing what rich people do, but ...

It is private now and he is the board, so why wouldn't he do the more insidious and technically challenging things later?

I mean we can hate it all we want but it's his platform now.

Saying celebs are just as bad is overlooking the simple fact they literally couldn't ban anyone and everyone they didn't like.

That said, the right's continued insistence that twitter was some left-wing echo chamber is and always was complete and utter bullshit.

If you think elons and twitters involvement or endorsements stop at a tweet, then lol. He has the power of the algorithm and discourse shifting website at his finger tips and he's going to use it to his benefit 10000%.

The right insists that college campuses are bastions of the left too. It is far from the truth to say the least, but they empower themselves by making others feel they are under threat.

Oh no way Katy Perry is a pretend woke bitch who knew

Context on Katy Perry's vote.

Caruso switched from R to D 6 weeks prior to declaring for LA mayor. So technically still voted D, but Caruso is buying his way to become LA mayor. Spending is $104 million to $9 million Caruso to Bass.

Isn't it illegal to take pictures of your votes?

Not in most jurisdictions

It is almost as if millionaires and billionaires have more in common with each other based on being rich than they do with common folk based on politics. This is exactly like when Ellen Degeneres was photographed being friends with GW Bush. Ultra rich stick together regardless of political affiliation.

People without a material care in the world will gladly vote for whoever they think will make it so they don't have to see homeless people anymore

You're not wrong. I have my issues with them along with the deteriorating condition of streets and the homeless encampments the past 2.5 years which includes a broken bathroom window from crazy homeless bum. Same bum also set off a police response of 10+ police officer units and helicopter backup. But it's also a wee bit unconstitutional to force people into shelters if they don't want to. But that's more for the Local Elections thread and not this one about social media.
