Twitter’s source code has revealed nothing but suppression and political manipulation boosting right wing lies. They even have special functions if you are republican… or Elon. 😂If you are the alt-right bird-site? You are literally funding the alt right. I have no respect for you.

@flexghost Wow. Even worse, like Trump, he's retaliating selectively, against those who piss him off. There are still plenty of legacy verified accounts. #ElonIsShit

@flexghost Musk said the quiet part out loud on this one. Twitter deliberately puts stuff that is likely to anger you into your feed. The Dem/Rep stuff is to amplify to opponents, not allies.More upset users = more rage clicks = more time on the site = more eyeballs on ads = more revenue for Twitter.

@CrazyMyra @flexghost idk, most people center to left familiar with twitter don't have much interest in RW gaslighting anymore, & many have left or became inactive. i.e. far less eyeballs than pre-Elon.

@slipperyhero @flexghost This started long, long before Musk. Read @pluralistic on the "enshittification" of platforms by Big Tech. It's about money, not politics.

@CrazyMyra @flexghost @pluralistic I don't disagree but Musk made it much worse. "It was fascinating to hear #Elon initially say nothing had changed when my feed was suddenly headlined by #Republican leadership, #FoxNews, #DeSantis minions, Ted Cruz, and a parade of psychopathic deplorables. Did he think we wouldn’t notice?"

@slipperyhero @flexghost Agreed - he's turned the dial up to 11. I suspect Musk's motives are to drive Twitter into bankruptcy asap, though, as he can't service the debt 😂

@CrazyMyra @flexghost I could only think of a few questionable scenarios in his psychological profile that would drive him to send twitter into bankruptcy on purpose, because it blows up his genius facade.

@slipperyhero @flexghost He'll blame everyone else and say he tried to pull out of the deal when he realised how troubled the company was. Only "honour" forced him to go through with the purchase (not the law). He's a narcissistic conman, just like Trump

@CrazyMyra @flexghost Nah, that won't fly. His rep has already taken huge hits by his baby-man antics and the value being cut in half since he bought it. If it goes bankrupt, his genius businessman rep to his fans is gone, because to many he has never failed before. Indeed he and trump are both on the narcissist spectrum, but they have somewhat different psychologies as well. Everyone who has some form of clinical narcissism is different level of narcissistic con man.

@slipperyhero @flexghost New Yorkers called Trump "Don the Con" for years and were perplexed at why the rest of the country bought his bullshit. We in South Africa had a similar rhyme for Musk and were equally puzzled about why the US thought he was a genius.
