Who cares? He's done his bit by releasing the "files."
We'd be better off if Twatter just vanished.
No we wouldn't.
If it dies, ones of its imitators will takes its place, and it will be one run by leftists.
I don't get why he chose to go the route of censorship. The best tool against the people he suspended is to let them talk. Without the protection of the old regime that made it look like there was no dissent to the insanity journalists spout on a daily basis most of the would meltdown within a few weeks.
Democracy is fake and gay. If one cannot curate a platform, why bother?
The similarities between him and Trump are astounding.
Came in pretending to be a savior, made empty promises, didn't deliver, did nothing but invigorate the left, and by the time it was over, even the people who originally supported him wanted him gone.
The best part is, the same people who support him and Trump will learn nothing from this. TPTB will just create another celebrity hero and they'll fall for it all over again.
Why the hell would Musk make this stupid poll?
This was a terrible unforced error.
Did he just naively think he was actually more popular than he really is?
If I had to guess, he was considering appointing someone else as CEO anyways.
It is going to be fucking Lex Fridman isn't it?
Who is that?
Some jew
He really showed how much of a Jew he was in that Kanye interview. The longer it went on the more I facepalmed at how much he kvetched about "muh oppression".
He already intended to step down with a replacement in mind. The poll has created engagement and given the people that hate him a false sense of power, which will encourage them to stick around.
These polls are perfect demonstrations of the effectiveness of democratic illusions, and democracy is always an illusion, to placate the plebs.
I want to believe that he is smart enough to know that and either puts these polls up as an example, or simply enjoys the Machiavellian dictator role and using Democracy as a tool.
But most likely he's just another autistic liberal who can't make that leap past his secular religion.
Musk is still quite progressive, but high-ranking progressives know they are manipulating the masses.
I think he's just looking for attention and validation from the right (seeing as he's a spergy white male and therefore unlikely to get it from the left without self-flagellating), but unfortunately, reactionaries are highly outnumbered by basic bitch conservatives and libertarians. The whole polling thing absolutely reeks of lolbert autism, and he's probably more concerned with winning points from that crowd than locking down one of the most valuable propaganda platforms ever invented.
I don't get it, where's the fire? Can people not waste their life on Twitter anymore?
Also who is "the people who originally supported Trump wanted him gone"?
How do you make it here and still spout this line?
Please answer the question
I disagree that no one learns anything. While more people fall for these "worked shoots" than don't, not everyone does. I fell for Trump but learned from it. I didn't fall for Elon, and I'm far from the only one who followed this path.
Are you fucking retarded, or are you just another subversive doing everything in your power to lose ground?
Disregarding that most of what you're claiming about Trump is false, just focusing on Elon, again almost everything you say is false.
You can't purge leftists once and be done with it. You'll just make it worse. They're still riding off of McCarthy busting the balls of a handful of commies 80 goddamn years ago. If they manage to weasel their way back in, they're gonna lock down even harder and nothing like this will happen again until collapse.
As opposed to no purging them?
This is an L for the Left. So was the fact that several spies got exposed by the HUAC, and the fact that Soviet Infiltration into the US Army was exposed in the Army-McCarthy hearings.
Yes, the Left crafts narratives. Good for them. That doesn't mean that these are tangible victories against a platform that is built and paid to solely direct public conversation.
It's just basic strategic thinking. Victories come with costs, and if the victory doesn't lead to anything, then it might as well be a loss. Don't win a battle at the cost of the war.
Elon will probably never be able to make a move like this again, and leftists still hold the majority of cultural territory - the factories of the culture war. Lord knows if we'll ever have anyone crazy and rich enough to pull a stunt like this again at all. That's gonna be true no matter what happens. If leftists retake or destroy Twitter before we get our use out of it, then we're coming away worse off for our "victory."
Elon stepping down doesn't mean he relinquishes ownership. He gives it to some delegate of his.
No, it's a bed-wetting black-piller who is more useful to the political left than anything else.
This victory has lead to more exposure of corruption and a major disruption of both the USIC & Journalistic class's narrative building for normies. Yet, you refuse to take the opportunity to recognize a significant tactical gain, so you throw the whole thing away because you are fucking controlled opposition, dedicated to demoralization to anyone on the dissident right.
I'm genuinely sick of pretending you're not traitors at this point. It's ridiculous to watch black-pillers like you demand defeat where there is none year after year after year. Part of me thought it was an ingrained mental illness of the right who always 'button-up' when threatened, but I'm more and more convinced you're just enemy actors. You are morale terrorists, and you serve no other purpose.
Shut up, failure. We both know that there is literally nothing on this earth that you would consider "use", and so you will declare any action "coming off way worse".
If Donald Trump became CEO of Twitter tomorrow you'd demand we all kill ourselves because it means that the Left "won the argument".
I have plenty of ideas of how Twitter could be useful, but we didn't get to that point in the conversation before you had a fit. It doesn't take an enemy actor to betray your own, all you gotta do is just be another spastic, paranoid nigger.
Point all the fingers you want. If you believed this victory was any more valuable than I did, you wouldn't be two steps from a psychotic break just because I told you otherwise.
Oh, sit down you defeatist faggot. You insist on failure because you want the failure, so that it doesn't increase your resentment of those who are your betters, and actually achieve something with their lives.
My account is still banned, I broke no laws, I've appealed multiple times.
nothing has changed.
