Tbh I thought twitter users were mostly cunts before musk, and are mostly cunts now. It's always been a cess pit where people create their own echo chambers or deliberately seek to cause or feign offence and outrage. The only positive purpose it seems to have is to act as a sort of sump for online idiots. Maybe in the very early days it was less toxic.I think you’ll find he isn’t here to have a real discussion, he just wants to post ignorant takes that are veiled defences of horrible people.
I've always thought the echo chamber issue was a strange way to look at things. If you've read someone wax poetic on a topic 18 different times, or seen someone wax poetic once each on 18 different topics, and either disagreed or learned nothing interesting/new every time, why would you listen to that person any more? They're a distraction or a waste of time. But let's say you do stick with them . . . then instance 19 better be so profound it makes up for the other 18 times they were useless.Tbh I thought twitter users were mostly cunts before musk, and are mostly cunts now.

100 percent this.I think you’ll find he isn’t here to have a real discussion, he just wants to post ignorant takes that are veiled defences of horrible people.
I see what you did there.Looks like it, yes.
So, basically a massive pissing contest. Musk is absolutely showing contempt. If he truly wants to do humanity a favour he should pull the plug on x/twitter and write it off as a tax loss. If we all woke up tomorrow and found twitter had vanished, would the world be in any way worse?SEC plans to seek sanctions against Musk for skipping testimony
It was the second time the billionaire tech mogul skipped out on testifying for the probe of the acquisition of the social media site now known as X.
“The Court must make clear that Musk’s gamesmanship and delay tactics must cease,” SEC attorneys wrote in the filing.
Musk was slated to testify on the morning of Sept. 10 at the SEC’s Los Angeles office, the agency wrote in the filing, adding that three of its own attorneys had flown in the day before. However, just hours before the testimony’s scheduled start, one of Musk’s attorneys notified the SEC that he would not be able to attend because he had to “urgently travel” to Cape Canaveral, Florida, the day before for SpaceX’s latest launch, Polaris Dawn, according to the filing.
The SEC wants Musk to be held in contempt for waiting so long to alert the agency that he would not be in attendance for the testimony. It’s also seeking to recover its travel costs and for other relief deemed appropriate by the court.
Your mistake is thinking Musk has ever actually done anything with the goal of helping humanity.So, basically a massive pissing contest. Musk is absolutely showing contempt. If he truly wants to do humanity a favour he should pull the plug on x/twitter and write it off as a tax loss. If we all woke up tomorrow and found twitter had vanished, would the world be in any way worse?
