Don't mean to add to the pile but I just had to chime in. But how does wanting to be treated like a basic human being means being "sensitive"? I think I was misinterpreted. I think the word DEI is racist as f***, especially with me being Indian. I guess Woke can also be used in a not so nice manner, but I think being “PC” is too much. Like watching a movie from say 2006 or so, some of those jokes would be frowned upon and people get more shit than they deserve today even if it’s just humor and they mean no ill will by it. |

Ill will, probably not. Lack of awareness, yes. Social attitudes change. Woke and PC are just terms describing awareness of that. Check out the end montage of Bamboozled to see the horrific way black people were depicted back in the first half of the 20th century. The world moves. Talented writers adjust to the times. |

That's my take. If there's no ill will just ignorance, as soon as they realise they'll be "oh shit I'm so sorry, I didn't mean that" and adapt. Or the other route where they double down, it wad ALWAYS OK including now and how dare you think differently. The comedian Dara O'Briain has done a few good interviews on stuff like that. |

Most people don't even call it X. They still call it Twitter. Even the news will say "X, formerly known as Twitter."

It's been fun seeing all the cryptoracists and actual Nazis - my favourite was one who had "14/88" in their profile and described themselves as a "national anarchist" but then got the right arse when they were called a Nazi - coming out of the woodwork over the past couple of days to tell us all why it's actually totally alright to set buildings on fire if there's a few ethnics in them. |

Twitter, along with several other far right social media sites basically needed to be banned and blocked here in Britain. They are being used to fuel the ongoing white supremacist riots across the country, and should be regulated as publishers like TV channels, radio stations and newspapers.

Elon picked the wrong time to let this garbage fly with a technically left wing government with a supermajority for the next 5 years who are not beholden to him in any way with no Tesla or Space X investment of note being used as a bribe. If the aim is to get regulation of social media, this is how you make that happen. |

it's like he's doing everything he can to crater twitter,
not paying bills/staff/rent,
amplifying the worst content available,
telling advertisers who didn't want their branding to be connected to said worst content available to "f*** off",
admitting to self medicating with ketamine,
suing the same advertisers who jumped ship,
trebling the amount of shitty advertisements from questionable companies (temu & dropshippers) and quadrupling cryptocurrency adverts,
making it so his posts are front and centre for everyone,
gutting the staff number to intentionally damage the running of the site,
picking fights with larger companies,
picking fights with governments,
removing any doubt about his political leanings and forcing that leaning on the entire site,
amplifying every weird conspiracy he can find,
removing the account identification for notable verified accounts so he can charge everyone money for that account identification then giving it back for free to large amounts off notable accounts,
trying to change the purpose of the site from twitter to video hosting site to gaming streaming site to porn site to banking site to neo-nazi hosting site to dumpsterfire,
(to be continued.)
