Musk actually buys Twitter.

So glad to see all of these corporations no longer advertising on X because of its alliance with antisemitism.



:unsure:

Yeah, they Hate Musk and were just looking for a reason. It has nothing to do with antisemitism.

Imagine that...a Chinese company that wants to push conflict and anti-semitism in the West...color me surprised.

Which is kinda of ironic considering this guy Sidney Rittenberg, Idealistic American Aide to Mao Who Evolved to Counsel Capitalists, Dies at 98 (Published 2019) was perhaps their best propagandist.

"a study found," is about as useful an indicator as, "I just made up."
Yes... actually, looking further.
"A study found that tictoc is a significant driver of antisemitism" is Anthony Goldbloom interpretation of a survey.

His actual source is a survey by generation labs.
The survey asked thirteen hundred americans for their political views, and which platforms they use.
The people running the servey then noted that tictockers are 13% more likely to have "anti-semitic OR anti-israel views" than Twatter users.
We have absolutely no idea how generation labs defines antisemitism.

Additionally, correlation does not equal causation.
Even if generation labs were correct and those really are all antisemites.
All it found is that that so called antisemites prefer tictoc to X.
Goldbloom then assumes that this means tictic is the cause of the so called antisemitism.

You guys have to remember that the first domino regarding Musk buying Twitter wasn't them censoring him or anything...

It was Twitter banning the Babylon Bee.

Elon was a longtime follower of the Bee and their silly memes and Christian-right shitposting. One can make the argument he bought Twitter specifically to protect his memes. :p

the thing about Musk is that he's one of the first major defectors to the growing populist movement. As establishments get more tyranical and incompetent they create more defectors like him. My money is that he will most likely be murdered with in our life time.

But that there will be more and angier people as things get worse and worse. He very much singals the begining of the end which is why they hate him so much.

Hahaha. AY Dios mio! Musk really is a sore loser. Isn't there a law against filing frivolous lawsuits? Peppercorn! From my point of view forcing Musk to buy Twitter for the highest price was money well spent. The asshole has a track record of using frivolous lawsuits and loopholes to avoid or delay payment. Fuck him. As a former very minor Twitter shareholder I'm certainly happy! 😄

Are you seriously posting a video from that leftoid cuck Legal "Disney is gonna crush the Florida state government" Eagle? LOL.
I used to watch him when he stayed strictly on pop culture and silly movie analysis; however, when he started getting into commentary on actual current political issues I stopped. I think it was when he utterly misrepresented the case against Roe v Wade and Constitutional Criticisms of it in the lead up to Dobbs. It showed that he was a hack lawyer who didn't understand anything of Originalism and basically dismissed it wholecloth. Which, look, you can disagree with Originalism and Textualism or follow your own methods of Constitutional interpretation, but just dismissing them as uncompelling when the majority of the Supreme Court are either both or one is stupid. For as often as many of us are unhappy with Roberts, both he and, believe it or not, Justice Kagan, along with the more hardcore conservative wing of the Court, all follow some version of those forms of Constitutional interpretation. You cannot just dismiss it and be a serious commentator on the US Supreme Court and cases before it.
