Peter Thiel doing the ole libertarian 'I'm a libertarian, which is why government shouldn't regulate me because any use of state violence no matter how small or justified is evil, and I'm a libertarian which means I support free speech so you can't criticise me for my racist speech, but also as a libertarian I believe that we need concerted state violence to kill my my enemies and ban all their writings and opinions for the crime of wrongspeech and badthink'.

Elon still doesn't seem aware he has cut off a lot of the people who paid him from their actual followings.

Many people are desperately afraid of “forever masking.”

I'm afraid of #COVID19 remaining a top five cause of death indefinitely.

I'm scared COVID will leave billions with lasting damage to their heart, brains, and immune systems.

I'm frightened that children infected three, four or nine times will have lifelong health issues.

#Cryptocrash (FTX), #Tesla Stock way down, #Musk meltdown ongoing, #Trump/Maga not as successfull as predicted in #midterms, #Putin redraws troops from #Cherson w/o fighting. Last days could have been worse, I think.. Times might just start to getting a bit better. Hopefully...

The sad and not so slow destruction of Twitter has proven to me that you shouldn't trust a company to do the job of a community.

Unfortunately, it's way too easy to let companies slip into these roles - they have inherent advantages of resources and unity of purpose that allows them to make progress while a community is just getting started.

I don't know how to square this circle...

Clorox has recently raised prices by 12%. But the company doesn’t have to worry about losing customers because they already control ~60% of the consumer bleach market.

This isn’t the “free” market. Corporations are raising prices because they have the monopoly power to do so.
