Not saying this is the right thing to do. But it does seem like social media consistently suppresses the spread of “hacked” (whatever their definition of hacked might be) material related to political candidates, regardless of party. The same thing happened with the Hunter Biden laptop stuff, which was pretty much impossible to spread on social media. Although Elon Musk is obviously all in on trying to help Donald Trump win, the decision to suppress this information is not surprising. Meta is also suppressing the links.
elon just gives off such a horrible ick
I’ve been job hunting for 3 months. Hardly any recruiters are reaching out, and my applications go nowhere. A recruiter from xAI reached out the other day, and I couldn’t bring myself to even apply. I told them I wasn’t interested without specifying why, but it’s Elon.
That recruiter might work somewhere less shit in the future, so I’d rather not burn a bridge unnecessarily.
Why don’t we just let Twitter/X die? It’s not like it’s an essential platform, there are other places to post short-form bullshit opinions. Twitter/X is not the sole supplier of any resources except their own brand name. Just walk away and let it burn. Without massive public engagement, it’s just a more expensive to run Truth Social.
I thought he was a free speech absolutist?
“Free speech” just means “I want to spout garbage without pushback (like fact checking) or consequences.”
Oh wow, the trump campaign doing shit it accused the Democrats of doing?!?!?!
I’m 10000% unsurprised.
