Barron was at least responsible for his dad’s victory as Musk and Rogan.

That article seems to be pure hysteria

quote:

Elon Musk admitted that X (formerly Twitter) is throttling link-based posts, essentially stifling news articles on the social media platform. In a reply to a post Sunday from technology investor and writer Paul Graham, Musk confirmed that X’s algorithm deprioritizes links, telling him to “just write a description in the main post and put the link in the reply. This just stops lazy linking.”



So far you’ve presented a guy who was banned for doxxing the home address and SSN of the vice president and a guy who’s upset that he can’t post a link with no context (content isn’t banned but “deranked”). That writer clearly has an agenda and is grasping at straws. These are pretty weak examples if we’re being honest.

Can you find something as blatant as was revealed in the Twitter files?

I guessed I missed the whole storyline. I see "royals" and immediately tune everything afterwards out or move to another story

appreciate you proving my point. It doesn't matter what I post. It never did.

I do have to compliment you on something. I wish I had the over inflated self-sense of intelligence you have. It’s impressive.

It's Time for them to go bye bye.

I'm surprised they didn't nominate the virgin who shot Trump or the trans who shot up the elementary school. So brave.

REPORT: After being named TIME's "Athlete of the Year," Caitlin Clark apologizes for her white privilege and says that the WNBA is "built" on black players.

“I want to say I’ve earned every single thing, but as a white person, there is privilege."

"A lot of those players in the league that have been really good have been Black players. This league has kind of been built on them."

"The more we can appreciate that, highlight that, talk about that, and then continue to have brands and companies invest in those players that have made this league incredible, I think it’s very important. I have to continue to try to change that."

as you should. the position should literally be raising awareness and fundraising towards some noble cause, not making news. Kate Middleton has fulfilled that role well.


Dianna, Charles, and Meghan Markle ruined what should have been.

My WNBA viewership will remain at zero, what an absolutely sad statement from CC. She doesn't get it, they fricking hate her guts.

It’s got to be Trump by any measure. POY isn’t ’most likeable’ it’s the most remarkable story.

I’m not sure if Tay Tay has won this before but she did just finish off the most epic tour in music history. Blowing everyone before her out of the water in terms of attendance and revenue.

I would disagree. Maybe next year, but I would say that Musk, between Twitter/SpaceX and his newfound role in politics and agenda setting, has had a much larger impact in the past year than Trump has. Trump would have a better argument next year, in my opinion.


Trump winning this election after everything over the last 4 years is one of the greatest political comebacks in this country’s history.

Completely ridiculous statement and NOT TRUE. It’s just mindless pandering and a lie.

The WNBA has had just as many white stars over the years as black stars. Or at least it’s damn close to 50/50.

This absurd assumption that the league is 99% black and built on their backs is nonsense.

I feel like I’m on drugs

How is Trump not the extremely obvious choice here?

Legal losses, legal victories, shot in the head, greatest political comeback in American history, landslide election victory with basically every demo and state shifting to him

The fat gamer and Joe Rogan have nothing on Donnie

I don't disagree, at all.

I also don't find that a compelling reason for him to be Person of the Year. His election simply hasn't mattered yet.

It should be Elon, but he just got it a few years ago. Funny enough, I think it's down to Trump and Kamala
