I stopped bothering a while back so unless someone else sends me something interesting/funny I donāt have to scroll through pages of racism, onlyfans bots and an unblockable Elon to find the 1% of worthwhile tweets.

If you guys didn't spend so much time on twitter we'd have far more content over here, you bastards. Tbf, most posts are either highlighting something said on twitter or reacting to said posts. Totally guilty here too.

Said it before, but if you guys stopped posting twitter embeds, I'd probably never see twitter at all. Then again, there might be a lot less discussions here.
Luckily the new pollicy of not letting you see replies unless you're logged it (which I'm never) means I don't see most of the other shit or get dragged down a rabbit hole. It also means those tweet 1/47 things totally don't work anymore.

Obviously cross over with the other thread but this is specifically Musk being an absolute twat, the new government has already said they're going after online crimes linked to the riots and he tweets that, oh dear.

How long until there's a case to answer for inciting riots? I just want there to be an open police warrant for him so he can never step foot in the country again. We can still put warrants up across the EU right?

Edit:Reply to Zephro
There are other routes. The U.K. has strong ties to Saudi Arabia where a lot of the Twitter money came from. Perhaps the Saudiās could explain to Elon how they deal with people who insult their friends.

Does it count if I only ever made mine for a project years ago and got logged/forced off of it like a year ago? I don't even think I can remember my username and password to get in and delete it (side note, it's quite nice that you only get the diet version of it when you're not logged in. I can't see replies to tweets, for instance, some posts don't show up at all, I can only assume because they're "NSFW" - they honestly aren't -, translating posts never works...)

Dear Elon,
Civil War is not inevitable. What is inevitable is that you are going to be legally responsible to be more morally and professionally considerate in the canāt come soon enough future. 198m followers? You should be disgusted by your comments. Get your alien brain out of the sand and read the room from time to time you idiot.

That would require him having a brain in the first place... If he ever had one it's apparently rotted away by now

Starmer should get in touch with Bluesky (or whatever agreed platform they go with) along with maybe Democrats in the US and a few European governments. Present Bluesky with a bunch of rules to ensure the platform doesn't become hate filled. If they agree to adhere to them then the government agree to shutting down all government X accounts and ban it on government devices, and shifting over to Bluesky. Journos will have to follow them. BBC, ITV, Sky will have their political news staff moving over, so easy enough for those over on sports desk to do the same.
If politics and sports all move away from X it will just be the cesspit of altnews and a few Love Island contestants left there.
Alternatively, we all just agree that this whole idea of completely open Internet platforms with everyone shouting over each other was a silly idea and return to forums! Or sites where the default is closed off invite only communities for you to chat with friends and like-minded people (like Discord, but without the shit interface and less focus on instant messaging).

If you want advertisers to come back maybe ban the openly hate filled accounts that encite violence? Just a suggestion.

So confused. Theyāre doing an antitrust suit because companies donāt want to advertise with them? Do they think the result is that theyāll be forced to advertise again? And what happened to Muskās āfree speech absolutistā claim?

It's mental, companies don't have to advertise with you Musk, they can even talk to others about not advertising with Twitter too.
The brainworms are getting worse aren't they Elmo?

I reckon there will be repercussions from all this Musk/twitter/riot stuff for social media, and we have the absolute ideal PM to handle this as well with measure and legal clarity.

Rico? Yes, not spending money on advertising is a criminal enterprise now.
K-holed 4 life.
