I believe censorship is the endgame here in any direction. We either successfully regulate these companies into removing false content, or an authoritarian will eventually do so. It's unavoidable.

The owners of these platforms: Elon, Google, Meta are also intentionally designing their algorithms to promote this nonsense since it is more profitable and in line with their political beliefs.

I constantly get right wing content recommended to me. Given that I work in tech, I've concluded it's a combination of algorithms favoring content that generates rage which is something the right specializes in. The age old saying of a lie spreading around town before the truth gets its legs applies

I remember when they used to compete for customers. Now they are self aware that they have nearly no competition and try to steal as much as they can without you noticing.

we need them fast

Fascism is a cancer on the host body of democracy. If cancer is not forcefully cut out and removed, it will eventually consume the entire host, killing itself in the process.

everyone i met in Canada was exceptionally clear that they aren't coming to visit

one of the worst takes i've seen in some time. it's not corrupt unless you put it in writing that you're violating the law!

Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops.

I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III.

Remind you of anyone?

sure! that's the only explanation that makes any sense

much legitimacy in the past few years, that when they ultimately decide to display their courage by attempting to stop the President, he will simply ignore their rulings.

Half of the country exists in an alternate reality. I visit their reality occasionally and it's like living in the upside down.

FBI agents who overwhelmingly voted for Trump are somehow shocked when he comes after them.

After he said he was going to do this for years.

Yes. I've been watching people who can't open a PDF destroy America for decades.

It's embarrassing to have 80 and 90 year old Congresspeople continuously injure themselves simply by walking. Why do we allow this?

I will repeat that elected officials should have a mandatory retirement age of 60 years old.

The term for what Elon is doing is state capture and it's consistent with a coup.

The U.S. is currently undergoing a coup and Democrats are issuing strongly worded letters.

@mcuban.bsky.social Please comment on the Luka trade

they are sending strongly worded letters

Trump acts in the exact same way that Putin would if he was in the White House. There's no daylight between what their actions would be.

We are picking unnecessary fights with all of our allies while ignoring all of the very real threats from our enemies.

only slightly kidding

Who wants to marry me so I can get EU citizenship 😭

I give it six months max before the military has to make a decision. And I have no faith in them.

We are speedrunning a constitutional crisis.

Trump's hiring freeze and Elon's tampering with the FAA directly contributed to the deaths of 67 people.

Americans are incapable of defending themselves at this point, so I hard disagree

history will remember nothing about him other than he failed to stop this
