Twitter adopts 'poison pill' to prevent Elon Musk takeover

Most of the Walmart-affiliated contributions to congressional and federal candidates went to Republicans (54% of the total amount of dollars for both categories).

Some more information on Musk using his power as the owner of X to steal the “America” handle.  And then proceed to post that “Trump is the only candidate on the right side of these issues” with that handle.  But nope, you guys are right, Musk the person and X the company are totally separate.

@Strike, any thoughts on this action by Musk?  Still just him giving his personal opinion and staying separate from the company?

Weird that whenever righties like you and @Strike get proven wrong you usually just disappear and don’t actually admit you were wrong.

Keep waiting scumbag.  Not my fault they took them down as fast as they could.  Link to you proving that I'm wrong?  You can't.

Nope.  I will note that your own article talks about multiple policies that X has that allows it to take back handles, including one regarding non-use of the account, and this account hasn't been used in a couple of years apparently.  So, as usual, you're looking for a gotcha where none exists.

I never said it was against X’s policies to do that.  I said Musk used his authority as the owner of the site to be able to do it, thus inserting his politics into actions of the company.

You thought the kid killed in North Dakota’s mom was already on her way to pick him up from a night of underage drinking at 2am, and he wasn’t specifically calling her because he was afraid of the crazy dude.

Actions of the company lol.  He took one, inactive account.   Compare that to the CENSORSHIP the previous regime at Twitter used to perform daily, and only against conservatives.  GTFOH with this.  Don't be such a joke.

Again, why does it have to be a comparison?  

And again, there is more to being politically neutral than just not censoring one side more than the other (lololol at “only” conservatives though).   

X is not politically neutral.   Musk using his power as owner of the site to take an inactive username to directly support Trump is proof of this.  

Kudos to @nobody for seemingly being the only righty here willing to admit that.

He never actually did.  He had said he was going to but was arrested before he got the chance, so neither of us were proven correct on that one.

It's a comparison because the reason most of us love the fact that Musk bought Twitter is because he did it for free speech reasons.  And the free speech he speaks of was because old Twitter was censoring one side of the political aisle.  He didn't take an account to directly support Trump.  He took an account so he could separate his political posts from his personal ones.  He was going to post whatever he was going to post in support of Trump regardless.  This just gives him a dedicated space to do so.  While the posts are political this doesn't move the needle as far as politics go.  Censoring the right does.  HTH.

Wrong.  You said he wasn't even scheduled to do so.  And he was.  Funny you're trying to change your stance now.  At the time you admitted you were incorrect.  Trying to change the narrative because he got arrested just makes you look even more foolish.  You should have quit while you were behind.

Anyways, the point of my post in this thread was to show that you were duped by SM while you're chastising someone else for that same thing.  I mean, seriously, a kid in a gaming chat room?????  My stance on SBF testifying was supported by legit sources, and IIRC I even linked them.

This is a joke right?  Are you suggesting because Musk took the “America” handle he’s not going to make political posts from his personal account anymore?

If so, holy fock you’re dumb.  For one, that’s already not happening.  And even if it was, he didn’t need to take a handle that was already taken in order to do that.

Speaking of censorship and @Horseman’s blatant lies, also a friendly reminder that after the Georgia school shooting Musk was censoring searches for the name of the shooter.

Here was my last post on that.  I admitted I was wrong that he was supposedly “planning” to testify, but that we’d never know for sure if he would have.    I also had admitted that I didn’t realize there were supposed to be hearings in front of both the Senate and House, and it was confirmed by a senator that he refused to testify in front of Senate, so I was still skeptical he actually would have showed up for the Congress one.  

edited to add:  So the post I cited was never really proven to be fake.   On the other hand, @Horseman has probably fallen for like 5+ fake social media posts just in the past month.

That’s the difference between me and you.  I admitted I was wrong that SBF was supposedly planning to testify in front of congress (unfortunately we’ll never know if he actually would have).  You never do, like in the example I just linked, you said something like “well I just said I doubted it, that doesn’t make me wrong.”   Or in the North Dakota thread where you disappeared after I factually proved you wrong.  Or multiple times in the Covid thread.

I didn’t interpret that as anything to do with his own opinion, but rather a gross oversimplification about his thoughts on each of the generation’s opinions.
