    Genuinely cannot comprehend the mind of an Elon cultist. Like I still know people who think of him as the epic Tony Stark guy who's gonna save the world and take humanity to Mars.

    It's wild how everything is just getting dumber and shittier at such an alarming rate. Like it's not just me/us exaggerating because we're Too Online or because we're older and more attuned to the world? It's like 4chan and reddit have taken over the world and everything is just a flame war.

      Capeshit nerds who saw him in Irony Mane Deuce who can't separate fact from fiction. That's all you need to know about them.

      It's wild how everything is just getting dumber and shittier at such an alarming rate.

      Buckle up! I have a feeling the next 2-3 years are gonna be WILD!

      4chan and R*ddit were always a mistake on the way to a faster, more open internet. Best to wash your hands and think nothing else of them.

        Seriously. It feels like everyone is on the verge of a mental breakdown.

      A lot of the newer ones are right-wingers who like how he owns the libs and brings back free speech. Been seeing some of them hoping that he buys Youtube next.

        Musk can't even build a miniature launch pad, let alone a server farm able to host that quantity of data.

      All my teammates at work love the guy. They all have Teslas which they love compared to their old ICE car (fair, but there are much better EV options out there nowadays and these companies didn't take absurd amounts of taxpayer money to do the R&D)

      They also praise the success that SpaceX has achieved which again, fair but Elon didn't really do anything himself. He just grifted taxpayer money into a private sector company. Literally hire the exact same people at NASA and give them the same amount of budget and project goals and they'd do the same or better. At least with a lot of other tech companies the CEOs actually did some useful engineering/product/design work from the beginning which built the foundation of the company before becoming leeches

    Wow. I get banned from r/news for suggesting that Biden might still be a rapist even if his accuser moved to Russia. A week later there are protests against the site. I get banned from Twitter for spamming Jordan Peterson and Matt Walsh with Tom of Finland pictures because I was tired of them showing up in my suggestions, then this happens.

    Where should I get banned from next?

    with all these changes with reddit api and now this, i would be mad but at least I'm gaining a lot more time to do more productive things now. I say that but I'll probably waste time some other way.

    I used Twitter for 30 minutes, after that I stopped me from liking posts as it was too similar to a bot or something. Thanks melon-musk, you finally got me off Twitter.

    Twitter responded to CNBC’s request for comment with its customary poop emoji.

    Eric Cartman getting hired to be Twitter’s press secretary is a good BIT, y’all didn’t have to make it REAL

    Now that Nitter has been more or less axed, I hope people jump ship to Mastodon or Telegram so you could actually set up RSS feeds.

    Such a fucking broken shitpile of a site.

    All the while the new CEO is fucking nowhere? Probably making a new CV and calling peole to get her old job back.
