Anyone still use twitter?

[Ryeknow]

I never had an account, but still checked out bands and band members accounts for updates. Now I see you have to log in to view and the design is an X, what's up with that chit

[Mesarthim]

Never have, never will.

[jawn galliano]

yeah but i kinda weaned myself off of my old extremely unhealthy levels of scrolling. just check the group chat once a day now and that's about it

[Grudge]

I've removed myself from Social Media. I even deleted my LinkedIn just yesterday.

[shadowalk]

Never have, never will.

[User]

[Z's bouncy tits]

I had myspace and facebook but in the day and I remember checking out twitter and thinking it was dumb as fuck - never in a million years did I think it would catch on like it did…. But, i said the same thing about those stupid croc shoes so what do I know.

[Ninny]

Twitter will fall down in a giant display of homosexuality

[slugbait]

Elon Musk is a megadouche

[Abzu]

I quit when the rich kid tech bro douche took over.

[jawn galliano]

yesterday, he immediately unbanned a hard-on bearer who got axed for posting a heinous child exploitation video

i think i am logging out

[Corpsepyre]

Yeah, I have to to keep track of all the game news, but I don't actively participate in tweeting.

[deckard]

rare tweeter but i follow for football stuff and game news

[Noyka]

Its now “x”

Still a cesspool

[Z's bouncy tits]

Same with arsebook.

Loads of African manchester reds fans praising mason greenwood.

He's a sex offender and rapist. She dropped the charges and her family pocketed a chunk of change from him.

[deckard]

his career is dead and buried. dont care he got on that stuff, i saw some of the stuff reported, fuck him.

[Z's bouncy tits]

I'm not, no. I just like fucking with their fans.

[deckard]

[Methuselah Honeysuckle]

Never did use

[agony bagony]

i use ein twitter

but i can see the day coming when it will be unusable

[slugbait]

Apparently 45 is unbanned now. I didn't use the app anyway but now there's no way I'm going even close to that shitshow.

[agony bagony]

he's been unbanned ever since elon musk made twitter his little folly, he just hadn't posted anything until last night

[vO)))id]

Who's that?

I'm staying away from all of it.

[Methuselah Honeysuckle]

bag of diarrhea inside another, bigger bag of diarrhea

[vO)))id]

Oh, the 45th president.

Why is him being unbanned such an issue? You rather have censorship?
Or c.ensor the people you disagree with so you can be "safe inside your digital bubble" ? (Not aiming this at you, Nick - just in general).

Freedom of speech also means having people like Tr.ump and Biden be on platforms like Twitter.

[slugbait]

My dude, there is a terms of service agreement that you have to agree to on any of those platforms. If you violate them, you get what you get.

It's not censorship or "cancelling" to kick a Nazi out of your house because he's spitting Nazi propaganda.

[Mesarthim]

It still baffles me that people don’t understand that.

Of course you need to accept the terms and adhere to them. But there is a difference between the limits of freedom of speech that the law sets, and the limits that a social media platform sets.
From the Twitter Files we know that the CIA conspired against anyone who disagreed with the narrative of leftwing politics, big pharma, etc. and those people got banned.

I'm not saying I agree with what T.rump says or said but I am pointing out that true freedom of speech (within the boundaries that the law sets) goes both ways, whether you like it or not.
We need to be able to have a public debate without any big tech company meddling, and trying to push their narrative by silencing those who disagree or have a different point of view. That is called censorship, and it's exactly what happened.
The public debate should be respected and is eventually the only way to get to the truth, or a "mutually agreed upon truth". And not a prescribed truth, pushed by these big tech corporations.

Biden and the likes who were never banned from the previous Twitter company (before Musk's takeover) were fear- and warmongering just as much. Just look at the European and Dutch left political wing and its pro-Ukraine and pro-War and anti-Russia propaganda that they are spewing forth. It's disgusting. But I would not want them to get banned either.

[jawn galliano]

i dunno, 'm not really married to the whole 'free speech' thing because it doesn't and has never existed. for every big Triumph of Civil Liberties you can find that supports the absurd notion that it exists, there are a thousand counter-examples that expose the entire enterprise as nothing more than a hollow legitimizing myth.

societies repress those elements it deems undesirable, it's just the nature of power. it would be nice if it were some other way, but it isn't, and nobody has the power to change that. and if i had power, you'd better believe i'd chili cheese fries and destroy every last one of my enemies. especially the fwee speech dweebs like glennwald and taibbi and the rest of thiel's hired guns, because there's little i find more irritating than having to listen to these mercenary hacks bleat about how fucking principled they imagine themselves to be.

that type of argument can be used by people who are just wanting to not hear opposing views though.

although i domt know how to draw the various lines that need to be drawn
