Am I this old now? I know Twitter but what's Snappchat?

You are both old. I didn't know Snapchat was even still around. They are all on TikTok now.
Actually, I'm old too, so it's probably something newer than TikTok.
(And TikTok was the app that first got popular with the dancing Covid nurses--it's a video sharing service)

Antifa extremists stage plans to burn down Tesla outlets following Twitter bans

'As revenge for [Elon Musk] suspending violent extremist accounts on Twitter, [Antifa] in Portland are organizing arson attacks on [Tesla] locations tonight,' reported Ngo, who provided screenshots of the calls to action.

Great stuff.

By the way, it would be great if Musk bought Wikipedia. If you think leftists are going crazy about Twitter, it would be 100 times more severe if they lost Wikipedia.

Wikipedia is not a company or an asset to be traded, but an online free, open sourced, community run protocol for organizing information.

Wikipedia, for all its faults, is still a decent repository for non-political things, and a great "free encyclopedia." It would not be great in any way, for any capitalist, even a so-called good one (which Musk is not) to buy / own it.

To the degree wikipedia is flawed, its because our community is flawed. The solution is to fix our community, not allow some billionaire to "own" information.

Gold check for companies, silver (grey) for Government and blue for regular folk. An insight into peoples pecking order in society?

Looks more like the practicalities behind payment processing. Of course I put in all my chips on the bet that this is the grand plan for Twitter.

Elon should put his money where his mouth is then, and donate $1 million to DeSantis. It would go a long way to deflecting criticism of DeSantis if he was owned by Musk instead of the chews in the GOPe.

Twitter is going to be the best entertainment in the world agian.

 

[Caduceus]

Twitter now seems to add a "context" blurb at the end of misleading mainstream news article titles that reveal the news piece is nonsense.

Big bad bother from Afrika is heating Twitter up.



The answer is - spreading resentment.

They lock to mock.

Is that a flare gun or a normal gun ?

The other gun towards the back seems like an antique.

You have to respect his political ability. Getting strong support from one side, then another right after.
