@Exoticgamora "Twitter has 450 million monthly active users as of November 2022. Elon would have to do something much worse than suspend some good accounts to get a significant percentage of the accounts to leave."While #elonmusk suspending some good accounts certainly didn't help things, people are leaving for all sorts of reasons including but not limited to his unban crusade, polls driving policy decisions, and paid services implementation.And he seems to be just getting started.

For those Mastonon pros, riddle me this:Why does clicking on a hashtag in a post yield different results than using the search bar?

I have a bad history with organized religion and spirituality orgs. As such, I will likely block or mute any posters that engage in faith-based preaching, fund-raising, or conversion efforts on my timeline. And Scientologists and their ilk can double fuck off.I understand your faith can be quite strong, but I don't want to see it.

@TomWellborn #elonmusk driving #twitter into the ground through thoughtless tinkering similar in style to web 1.0 forums moderation is bad. Completely destroying ones basis of wealth via #tesla cancelled orders and brand destruction is worse.I honestly hope #spacex survives fairly intact as that is one initiative that might do some long term good.

Given what I've learned from a couple of excellent documentaries, I can't say I am surprised to hear that Federal regulators have ordered #wellsfargo to pay $3.7b in damages for consumer law violations.https://www.cnn.com/2022/12/20/investing/wells-fargo-cfpb-foreclosure-fine/index.html

@kairyssdal I think #mccarthy would actually be in a stronger position had he not sold the farm to the extremists. He just looks weak now, and seems to be hanging on for the bigger pension or office at this point.

@1finekitty Out of all the #MAGA nutjobs, MTG has been the smartest about how to actually gain power. Scary statement.

@GottaLaff The Fair Tax Act of 2023 would abolish the IRS, and replace income tax revenues with a 30% use tax. This is a bad idea for many reasons. Added bonus: this idea was originally proposed by our good friends at the Church of #scientology.This is what the #gop-led House wants to pass?https://itep.org/fair-tax-plan-would-abolish-irs-shift-federal-taxes-from-wealthy/
