Donald Trump

My point precisely really. They just can't help themselves. I don't want to see trump's nonsense so I just don't look at it. These folk seem top get off on trolling themselves in a sort of masochistic way. They take the hurty things off twitter and scurry back to the safety of bluesky with them. Odd to say the very least.

Yep.
If you ignore it, it hasn’t happened.
Perfectly legitimate these days to live in your own fantasy world.
They used to put you in an asylum when you are out of touch with reality but now they make you head of the FBI or President.

I'm not saying ignore it, but it's the same folk that flounced off to bluesky after Nov 5th that seems to not be able to leave X . It makes me wonder if they really object to misinformation or if they just object to views they don't like?

Why the false curiosity? You’ve already presumed it’s because of views they don’t like, not random decapitation videos or Elon lies. Everyone is the same of course — there can’t be multiple reasons and no matter what all are worthy of your criticism.

You aren’t wondering anything. And “flounced off” is a giveaway.

Sorry for having a view you don't like - sort of proves my point really. I think 'flounced' is appropriate as the exodus to bluesky seems to have happened immediately after an election result people didn't like. The same people who it seems are still logging into twitter and probably drive Tesla's for the most part. I imagine Elon is laughing all the way to the bank.

And you’re proving my point. You can’t tell the difference between “a view I don’t like” and misinformation. When you say “I wonder”, you’re lying. You don’t wonder. It’s misinformation.

So why would anyone think what you had to say on this topic mattered? It doesn’t. Utterly worthless.

I think you are fairly typical of what I'm describing. Disinformation is everywhere and if people choose twitter as a source of information they pretty much get what they deserve in that respect. What I'm seeing is people who don't like misinformation that doesn't fit their view rather than misinformation in general.

You think wrong. I am off Twitter because I do not want to give Elon Musk my eye- or mind-share. As I noted about 37 times, I didn’t have the same issues others did. I am not on Bluesky either.

The distinction between misinformation that doesn’t fit someone’s view and misinformation generally doesn’t exist.

Anyway — You sound like one of those “I’m just asking questions here” knobs which you’re not, normally.

The problem in just 'ignoring' what Trump and his band of racist and corrupt grifters are doing leaves them free to be racist and corrupt.

Twitter is toxic.

Also, you are way off the mark regarding Twitter posters driving Tesla's. It's way less than 1%.

Im staggered that people even talk about twitter likes relevant to anyone but then loons. The richest man and most sinister man in the whole world bought it as a loss leader knowing that Trump managed to get elected off the back of it in 2016. Then he got kicked off it and there was outrage. Own it and Musk made himself Jesus to them. But he will get reap the benefit of that loss leader. He is basically President lets face facts. If you own the narrative, which he bought and manipulated, you can own the world so long as the figurehead is a desperate compromised crook who needs you

You don’t want to see Trump’s nonsense but have a great interest in this thread, where his nonsense is dissected. How do you manage to avoid reading his stuff while keeping on the ball about the people who dissect it?
