re: Elon sharing more plans of where Twitter is going. No reliance on advertisers

Idk how I feel about this. Most of the country is retarded AF. For example, right now about 60% of people think a stimulus check is the answer to inflation.

I can tell you that you are better off with a bunch of voices explaining why that's not the case vs. the single voice (who wants dependency on govt) being the arbiter of it.

The solution, 100% of the time, is free speech and no censorship.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say I’m worried Elon will be found to have committed suicide by two shots to the back of the head soon. Leftist have proven time and again to be more than willing to do whatever they deem necessary to squash any threat to their Marxist agenda.

A real contender here for ignorant post of the day.

Only an airhead would spout this stale, completely useless, tripe.

Once advertisers understand they aren’t critical to Twitter they will come back in droves. They need the audience after making their cheap headline about not advertising on Twitter.

Something something… we met with Twitter and expressed concerns… blah blah blah…Twitter assured us….

If they want to advertise to the 50% of this country that previously hated Twitter they will be back and I mean fast.

Just how this shite works.

Twitter wouldn't even be in my top 50 as far as sources of factual information.

Because you're mistaking in thinking that Twitter, as an entity, is a source. Twitter is not a source. People are the source. Twitter is just the medium in which a source puts out their information.

A Newspaper article is a source. The paper it's printed on is the medium.

Elon Musk reminds me of Bono....good intentions at first, then they begin to believe their own hype...the power and praise feels good. Pretty soon they become the exact same people they rebelled against in the first place.

You remind me of tits on a bull.

I know it can work, but who’s going to filter it to find the one good one

YOU

The question here was where to go for information. I submit that the answer is anywhere that aggregates with as little filtering as possible.

Now here's the deal though. For any individual. You me or anybody else the bottom line regarding information is this. You have to have the ability to get the information and then do something with it. Getting the information isn't the last step it's the first. Then you have to be the one to analyze it. To question it. To apply your own critical thinking to it. How does it make sense in the larger picture of what you know? If you can't do that then it really doesn't matter where you go for information. Because you will never actually have any arguments or ideas of your own. You will only be repeating stuff you heard. In that case it doesn't matter if you're watching CNN Fox or calling me every morning.

ETA...... I also want to point out another advantage of the aggregating places. One of the ways media Outlets control how you think is by omission. They simply won't even talk about a subject that they don't want you to think about. You would be surprised how many people literally don't even know certain bits of information are out there being argued about. People who actually think they are informed because they have a favorite Channel.
