“Elon Musk's and X's Role in 2024 Election Interference” a testimony: “When Elon Musk took over, everything changed. What started as a social media company became something much darker. I was part of a team that was directly ordered to manipulate Twitter's systems to influence the 2024 US presidential election. It wasn't subtle, and it wasn't ethical.” https://theconcernedbird.substack.com/p/elon-musks-and-xs-role-in-2024-election?r=17wxcu&triedRedirect=true #teitter #x #musk #elections

Drüben, beim toten Vogel, stellt sich ein eitler Pfau mal wieder als demokratisch dar, indem er über etwas abstimmen lässt, das er, wohl aus ökonomischen Gründen, schon längst entschieden hatte. #musk #teitter #tesla

@YourAnonRiots nah.

Imstamves are buckling under the load.
