      As far as I’m concerned it’s already there. 70% of respondents wanted Alex Jones unbanned.

        If you believe Elron didn’t just make up whatever results he wanted. I watched it and the ratio didn’t change at all in the last 800,000 votes, which seems a little weird.

        It’s not like that poll goes to everyone, it goes to musk’s followers first and foremost.

          Musk’s posts go to everyone I’m pretty sure. Many people unfollowed him and he didn’t like that, so now you get his excretes whether you want to or not.

      I see a merger in the future. They can complete the circle of bullshit and nonsense like the dragon 69ing its tail

      Yeah it makes total sense. It’s a fantastic way to make sure you only get the most gullible, hardcore idiots that are easy to make money off.

      It’s like those longer running scams. They have built in mechanisms to find the best marks, by disqualifying anyone who might not be easy to convince early.

      Same here. If you cultivate a crowd of conspiracy theorists, that have a proven track record of being easily swayed not by evidence but by lack of evidence, then you got the full-day morons eating from your hand.

      It is the only social media I can still view only those I follow and in chronological order. I don’t like the algorithms. I re-followed Elon for about 12 hours the other day. Then I remembered why I unfollowed.

      My account has been silent since Musk bought Twitter. I’ve to muster the courage to ask my mutuals to follow me on another platform or exchange Telegram handles.

    Leaving whilst it was still Twitter was one of the best decisions I ever made. It’s never too late to just step away from X.

    Well, well, well, if it isn’t the alt-right idiot spouting his runner-up information. I guess he’s joining his crowd of idiots.

    Elon saw how much Alex is making from his “rare earth mineral supplements” and said shit I want in. Alex lost everything in his divorce and got banned from every major platform and all it did was increase his store sales. Hell Elon is most likely asking for advice.

      same, this one is shit. the worst part is that this very post was by a moderator’s bot.

      I’d gladly help to moderate a better tech community if needed.

    Twitter really must have lost about all their advertising if they think BrainMush Plus pill advertising might save them.
