Reconsidering our School's Engagement with Twitter

"My exact location" says the guy who bragged about living in the twitter offices for 2 months or whatever.

Apparently, CNN, TechCrunch, the NYT, WaPo, Bloomberg, some 20-year old kid, Keith Olberman, and NBC News were all trying assassinate Elon Musk.

It ain't gettin better for musky
Imagine being one of the richest people in the world and being a reply guy to Ian Miles Cheong of all fucking people
The Internet Makes You Stupid

"Freeze Peach" was made for this

Who am I to disagree

Twitter's fine. Everything's fine.

Nothing to see here.

this is what happens when you put it in the newspapers that elon is mad

this is musk’s reichstag flyer moment

boer hall putsch
What part of the Lowtax speedrun is this? Closing FYAD?
"without addressing the question you're actually asking, fuck you"
he's not the most evil boy in tech, but paul graham is truly the dumbest boy in tech

"i'm not mad. i'm laughing"

This is all somewhat annoying but the underlying truth that nothing is going well for Elon kinda makes up for it.

coding is hard

adding an extra slash apparently works too

Hard Drive EiC swinging for the fences:
This is the best one yet

the real risk for twitter here is that pretty much the thing that made anyone give a shit about twitter was the journalists and the celebrities, and if he loses the journalists he loses a ton of twitter's agenda-related soft power, which was already in question.

i guess he'd still have ye, though...

whoops

lmao at joining a twitter space

lol its broken

must have been one of those microservices

it started going negative lmao

Jason Calcanis is a shitty C tier venture capital guy who has been Elon's faithful toady for years

let this post be your guide to the general morals and mindset of jason calacanis: paid internships are good, but only if the intern is paying

just to cover the last few days, after being booed so hard he spent all night creating fake stories to disprove live recordings of the booing, elon has reached the point where he is claiming to be the subject of gang stalking and assassins. what research chemicals do we think gave him paranoid schizophrenia?

just guessing but a lot of that "mdma" he was popping was probably meth

his brain is so broken it passed sad and looped back to hilarious

im excited to watch the latest victim of the streisand effect in real time
Elon finally realizing he runs the SA Forums and he can do what he wants
Relevant, always

Lol it's on the main page of multiple news sites now.

He probably thinks he can fix the narrative if he can get ahead of it and stop the journalists reporting on the only Social Media platform there is (ie; Twitter).

And has made it much worse by Streisanding the matter completely.

I wonder how his "hire more engineers and/or get the ones I fired to come back" effort is going

I never understood how an imperial governor would fall to Tzzech.

Now I know. Just as planned.

Twitter suspends several journalists who shared information about Musk's jet

Press advocates said the move sets a dangerous precedent and worried about future moves against journalists who cover the billionaire.

NPR
chuds keep trying to own the libs with this one but i haven't seen any of the libs trying to invoke first amendment rights on twitter
cant wait for twitter to be blocked in europe like a lot of american news sites did when they weren't allowed to harvest their users data

Huh? Doesn't he really want people to say he was right to suspend the account? Why is that not even an option? Is he so afraid that people would say he's wrong that he won't even include that?

And how are most of the banned tweets real time when they are retweets hours later?

I guess you can't apply logic to the flailing of a drugged up fascist

next level of blocking mastodon links:
Those damn nyt reporters flying their private jets

AOC's secret private jet empire

Lmao, good god. A literal man child.

Time to tell the fragile pissbaby billionaire that I know their assassination coordinates
You know for like a day I was worried that Elon had his shit together enough to create this alt right amplifying site that everyone continues to use and advertise on but oh man his brain has broken so badly that everything is collapsing
lol oh Elon, you're doing great honey
I think it’s well established at this point that he can’t dish it out either. Just a total failure of a human being on all fronts.

Ahhh I see, his plane has a cloaking device he invented!

Fuck this Clown holy shit

Just Log Off and Take the L moron

Guess who the NYT and NBC News are punishing for all of this drama?

If you guessed their own reporters for doing their jobs, then congrats; you've been paying attention to how the world works over the past 5-6 years!

Imagine watching all of the criticism and dunking that Elon's gotten for this dumbass behavior over the past ~24 hours, including even Weiss and Greenwald backtracking on whether it's good to ban reporters, and thinking "Ben Collins was wrong to criticize Elon".

Fucking cowards.

Coward
any journalist not shitposting to try and get in on the ban wave in solidarity is a coward

German official dedicates legal win against Twitter to Fauci

BERLIN (AP) — A German official who won a defamation case against Twitter this week dedicated his legal victory on Thursday to Dr. Anthony Fauci, the top U.S. infectious disease expert targeted by the microblogging site's new owner, Elon Musk.

Associated Press
Most of those replies seem to be dunking on him too. Even Twitter won't be a safe space for him.
the breitbart idiot and the most bitchmade man in history
Elon lives in his own bubble and the only time he has ever faced any consequences for his actions before this was as a child when he got shoved down a flight of stairs for making fun of a classmate's dead dad
Musk suspends journalists from Twitter, claims ‘assassination’ danger

Many of the journalists, including from The Washington Post and New York Times, had written about dramas surrounding billionaire Elon Musk's takeover of Twitter.

The Washington Post
even glenn glennwald realized he couldn't totally whitewash this one
@cspam honestly 🤔🤔 I sick of hearing about the fucking twitter elf.
@cspam oh for crying out loud

@cspam stopwatch on now... How long before AOC is banned?

I'd say within the next 5 hours.

@cspam its funny, but aoc doesn't post as much as people think she does
Additionally, please explicitly note that Elon is "Mommy's special, bestest boy" in all future news releases
@cspam This is exactly why a social media site like Twitter should be a public utility, not owned by- and subject to the whims of- one unstable person with a very definite agenda.
