Enough Musk Spam

His "clarification" was great too.

“By ‘free speech,’ I simply mean that which matches the law. I am against censorship that goes far beyond the law. If people want less free speech, they will ask government to pass laws to that effect. Therefore, going beyond the law is contrary to the will of the people.”

So, you know, North Korea's idea of "free speech" is just fine with him.

It probably means he's on blood thinners. You'll bleed like you cut an artery even with a tiny nick.

So he probably had a tiny cut that just bleed a lot because of blood thinners.

Hard to get an audience if you leave big tech, Twitter included

When they don't also deepthroat Netflix after they banned password sharing. All the optimistic people, me included, said "oh this will make a huge dent in Netflix what a stupid move." But they read the room like a hawk.

People swallowed the hook and signed up in huge numbers. https://www.businessinsider.com/netflix-password-sharing-crackdown-worked-how-to-increase-subscription-streaming-2024-1

The West has created the perfect neutered, obedient consumers who will drink whatever coolade they are given. Until we have enough people who are willing to challenge convenience and stop bowing at the altar of comfort, we will have no meaningful change.

2 weeks is plenty of time for a shallow, skin-only graze to heal. And ear cuts can bleed a ton.

When an octopus gets frightened it releases ink to confuse predators. Due to his love of hamburgers Donnie releases catsup.

Do you think the orange douchewipe wants the focus on his ear?

I mean, yeah, I kinda do. I expected him to milk the assassination attempt for all it's worth, and I don't think that makes me a conspiracy theorist.

Knowing how Trump has played up his assassination attempt at every opportunity.... He absolutely would want to bring attention to any damage to his ear.

I don't really care one way or another about whatever drama is going on about his ear. I'm just saying, I don't think he'd choose to use makeup to cover up any scars on his ear.

It’s amazing what can be covered with a little bit of makeup.

Because Trump is known for using a "little bit" of makeup. If he was using makeup on his ear, it would be to make it look worse, not to cover it up.

THIS SHIT ISN'T FUNNY ANYMORE

There is no such thing as a "neutral carrier" for social media. It's a made-up concept used to pretend that a social media site isn't allowed to be partisan.

There are zero legal ramifications for making Twitter as partisan as musk wants.

I mean, they didn't even do that when he literally fucked up a Ukrainian operation against Russia.

Money rules this country. It stopped being a democratic republic a long time ago.

Last time I saw ‘em, he said something about hanging out with his buddy at Boeing.

I’m sure everything’s fine, they’re prolly just messin with planes & stuff.

No bullet touched him, it's not like in the movies, if a round had even grazed his ear it would have removed a nice chunk of it. Extremely fast objects don't slice you nice and cleanly.

I should have made this a top-level comment:

TL;DR: he wasn't banned, he quit:

On Saturday, I was perplexed by photos online of Trump boarding his plane en route to a bitcoin conference. There was no bandage on his right ear. I re-posted one of the photos on Twitter and wrote, “look closely at his ear that was ‘hit’ by a bullet from a AR-15 assault rifle.”⁣
⁣ “Fake news,” someone responded. “It’s the wrong ear,” said another, which of course was not true. “This is an old photo,” which I felt the need to reply to. I re-posted a screenshot of New York Times photographer Doug Mills’ Twitter post of the same situation of Trump boarding his plane, which included the date and time of his photo. Doug is one of Trump’s favorite photographers and Trump has publicly called him “my genius photographer.” So I thought the maga world would at least believe Doug Mills.⁣
⁣ They didn’t. The comments turned ugly. Mostly about me, but also some that disparaged Doug Mills. ⁣ ⁣ Since 2017, I’ve been accustomed to having vile and hateful comments thrown at me. But I had now exposed someone else, Doug Mills, to be the recipient of hateful messages on MY Twitter account. Not cool.⁣
⁣ On top of that, I’ve been at a cabin with no Internet and sporadic cell coverage for the past week, which made it difficult to post anything in the first place but also a challenge to push back against the hate.⁣
⁣ So I de-activated my Twitter account. It was a gut decision, made only by me. I am still not sure if this is a temporary or a permanent action.⁣
⁣ I was unaware that some on Twitter were a⁣ responding that Elon Musk had deleted my account. How would I know? I wasn’t able to access Twitter. I did receive a few DMs here on Instagram about this, but didn’t think much about it. ⁣ ⁣ Until…late last night, I received a text message from a New York Times reporter asking me to comment about my supposedly “being kicked off X for posting a photo of Trump’s ear.” And then this morning, I received a text message from a childhood friend who asked, in jest, “Is there a Free Pete Souza donation site?”⁣
⁣ It was time to respond. I have so much more I want to say about the state of social media, but for now I want to make it clear that I was not kicked off Twitter. I kicked myself off.⁣
