OT: Twitter in Absolute Shambles
- Thread starter Bill Cosby
- Start date
They act as self important whores for whoever gives them access/talking points. These people never actually break stories or do investigative pieces. They simply say whatever is given to them.
I was around this life but it wasn’t regarding politics. Today’s corporate press are no different than Instagram influencers, really.
These places scrapped their long term investigative reporting budget in favor of emotional opinion piece trash and “breaking news.”
In the early 2000s, Craigslist/internet killed newspapers by taking their classified ads revenue. Newspapers/media outlets struggle so much that they got acquired by large media conglomerates who simply use the bylines and TV time to push the agendas of the money backers. It’s a huge conflict of interest in how they report as the public is no longer their actual money source and they simply will say whatever their masters want now.

God I so hope this happens. Replace these scumbags and get a working media in there. It's the right thing to do for the people of America. Do it without hesitation!
It's not eradicated, but as Elon says, the tide has turned against the malignant pRoGrEsSiVe religious Woke Mind Virus. It can't thrive on it's own merits since it has none. It must be forced.
Much credit goes to Free Speech on X.
Just saw that our local university (ISU) abolished all DEI shit departments and HR procedures and scrubbed all mention of woke initiatives from their website. With demo☭rats no longer empowered to push it, look for it to diminish nationwide after Jan 20th. It's a mandate from the American people. Thankfully most don't accept this garbage.
Shame on everyone who supports or foolishly accepts this destructive anti-American society destroying ideology, and GFY.

DEI garbage, trans garbage, it’s companies being shaken down to do this and them implementing this when they think it’s super popular/approved. They switch up if it hurts the bottom line.
In the last handful of years, we’ve watched the left threaten your livelihood over a jab (and harass you every day with testing if you didn’t do it), discriminate against whites in job hires and Asians/whites in college admissions (predates five years), teach anti-white bigotry in corporate and classroom training, push trans crap to elementary school students, drag queen story hour and events to kids, got the feds and AG to spy on upset parents, pronouns idiocy, let guys win women’s sports, and thought it was okay to allow the government a backdoor portal into social media to silence those who challenged them.
The fact that companies didn’t even hesitate to go along with the above insanity is madness.
But the brains of Gen Z are cooked as are a lot of people’s. You can’t just turn that craziness off. It’s out of the box. It’s just maybe not everyone will oblige it now. But you can’t brainwash and dehumanize and think there’s no consequences.

X is one of many media platforms that have diversified the news landscape. The transition was well underway before Elon Musk. Musk has undoubtedly given his own spin to it, but if we are being honest, it was Jack Dorsey who actually built Twitter. Or did we forget about that time that entire revolution took place in Egypt due to Twitter?
Im actually all for the decoupling from what many term the "MSM". I'm a fan of democratized news, but no...Elon did not create that.
Seems to me he just simply stopped censoring as much and allowed multiple viewpoints, which unfortunately seems almost the exception and not the norm anymore.
I mean, to be fair, he's definitely allowed more of the high profile blue cbeckmarks back on. I have doubts that the actual amount of bans has decreased though.
It's his platform though. He can do what he wants. I have no problem with that. The idea I always thought was laughable that Twitter is so big and so important that it must be regulated by politicians. Like, what are we talking about?
I believe there was proof of government vetting and censorship of information, especially pertaining to public health, which imo is very problematic. So I’m happy that seems to have been ended.
Has that changed though? The freaking owner of X is part of the federal government. lol
Who do you feel is being censored right now? You could be right, just curious whose you think is being silenced currently?
Ok.
Well that has nothing to do with “journalists” killing journalism, whether Dorsey founded X or Elon changed it.
