Is this a new thing? Just saw this on BBC. I support this, but isn't it going to render 90% of bbc articles meaningless?

However will journalists be able to do their critical "someone said a thing on twitter, here is how people responded on twitter" scoops?!

Not one of pixelatedboat's faked Tweets. Surely no-one uses For You anyway. It's unusable as it is. But restricting stuff like polls is just going to hasten the demise.

Elon is a master at saying lots of words that mean little, I'll give him that.
That's his biggest skill. Making statements that sound vaguely intelligent on the surface but are utter bullshit.

Surely there’s a hardcore software solution to the bots?!

It's a Twitter poll for god's sake. No one in their right mind expects it to be accurate or anything other than a bit of fun.
They will just be widly in accurate in a different way now. And no fun.

Unfortunately hardcore solutions won't work when the tech stack is so brittle.
He'll need to personally rewrite the hex mainframe for the server interchange to enable the kind of hardcore code required.
See I can say bullshit like Musk too.

The only part of the tweets above that actually matters is:
"It's a hopeless losing battle"
Which perfectly describes his Twitter takeover and the ensuing period.

Elon just casually promoting anti trans propaganda in wake of the Nebraska shooting claiming the most recent notorious ones identified as trans/non binary, which is just all lies. Apparently only 3 of the estimated 2840 mass shooters in the past 5 years identified as such.

He's a fuckwit, he's spent 44 billion on a joke he couldn't retract and is burning what value there was in Twitter trying to make money out of it by pulling a reverse Midas with every decision. If he wanted to make Twitter better the best thing he could do is stand down and delete his account.
His massive ego won't allow him to do that though so he'll complain about bots.

He really doesn't care at all about the real world harm Twitter or his Tweets can do, does he?

As if having one ridiculous name for a child wasn't enough, Elon and Grimes have also called their second child, "?". Just a question mark. To "represent curiosity, the eternal question and such"
This from the same man that doesn't understand pronouns

To be very, very, very slightly fair to him, Elon being the absolute worst overshadows how absolutely unbearable Grimes is. I would imagine its her driving these lame names.

Apparently only 3 of the estimated 2840 mass shooters in the past 5 years identified as such. I've also seen this being blasted around the internet by the gunosexuals, to obfuscate the real issue.
So... 0.11% of mass shooters are trans.
Do you know what 100% of mass shooters had in common? Easy, unfettered access to lethal weapons.

Yeah, she's a fuckwit, too.

They both go to the pub and order a single plum, floating in perfume, served in a man's hat

I'm actually surprised Geefe knows a popular culture reference, albeit one from about 30 years ago.
