I did Nazi this coming. Florida Republican Party chair Christian Ziegler seems to be advocating something that sounds remarkably like ethnic cleansing. https://twitter.com/ChrisMZiegler/status/1650966404810547200?s=20

Florida had the third-highest Covid death rate in the country, after CA and TX. Almost 80,000 deaths. We have an elderly population. What kind of brain damaged Governor appoints a quack surgeon general to oversee his state? And he wants to be US President? https://twitter.com/MSNBC/status/1650877452594364419?s=20

@caseynewton OK, here's a nightmare scenario "next step." Musk appoints Tucker Carlson as Twitter's new CEO!
@chenx064 Thank you. Yes, he is out of control. Absolutely oppose him and I also see him as highly malignant and unprincipled.

What Musk is doing with Twitter's blue checks violates rules set up by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).

Musk has 'gifted' checks to celebrity Twitter accounts and other influencers without first seeking permission. But the blue checks act like endorsements of Twitter Blue, the new paid program that charges $8 for premium access and status on the platform. False endorsements violate FTC rules.

'Paging the FTC': Experts Warn Musk Misleading Celebrity Twitter Blue Checks Are Violation

"False endorsements violate FTC rules, legally exposing Musk," said Tim Karr of the advocacy and watchdog group Free Press.

Literally praying that, like Trump's eroding popularity, Carlson's departure from Fox News is another hopeful sign that the long night of our national insanity is coming to an end. https://wapo.st/3oF5MMD

@chenx064 It's like Musk is branding people. Putting his mark on them whether they want it or not. And he's only doing it because if he didn't, he'd be embarrassed by everyone being able to see how many celebs and influential account holders would refuse to pay for it. It's an unbelievably obnoxious and personally offensive thing to do.
@pallenberg The whole Twitter Blue check issue makes me nauseous. If I were one of the accounts that found myself "branded" by Elon without paying for the blue check I'd be livid. Literally forcing his mark on people so his lack of popularity won't become glaringly obvious.
@RollingStone It has been a deliberate campaign to misinform millions of Americans on matters that impact and undermine our national health and well-being.
So, young Americans, do you want to wear the ideological straight jacket conservatives want you to wear? Homophobia. Transphobia. Sexual repression. Racism. Intolerance. Authoritarianism. Ignorance and superstition. Subjugation of women. Religious tyranny. Is this your future??
