Society/Culture Elon Musk - Takeover of Twitter?

[RCAB]

Even if that was the case

Why wouldn’t he just simply apologise for any angst and show some empathy and explain he understands why people would be shocked by the action

Instead he jokes about it in order to inflame the situation further

"Jokes"

 

[evolved2]

Can we simply **** this off.

He had the ability to explain himself and instead he made a joke about it.
In essence he doubled down.

Not sure about you but the autistic people I teach and live with would be horrified and apologise for any confusion whatsoever.

He doubled down because the people voted for an administration that wont apologise. It has nothing to do with nazism.

The nazis didn't apologise straight away either.

Dude don’t you remember that scene from Rainman where the smoke alarm goes off and Dustin Hoffman starts screaming heil hitler?

And now he is wading further into German politics.

It's amazing that for all the talk of the world being controlled by the likes of the WEF, WHO, UN and the likes of Soros(don't mention the connection there to Judaism.) The far right is so happy to be 'controlled' by the elite in the form of Musk. If it wasn't so scary it would be hilarious.

the elites who follow MY ideology are the good ones and the ones who don't are EVIL.

They don't even consider them elite.

It's the most hilarious part about it.

The billionaires. Aren't considered elite. And no amount of discussion will sway their thinking.
The internet has made society dumber rather than smarter.

Social media is mostly progressive groupthink.

Do you have Facebook? Look at any article on climate change and see what the prevailing viewpoint is in the comments.

My view is that nazism is largely irrelevant. There are bigger fish to fry.

The jarring part about this comment is that just two weeks ago we were being told that antisemitism is the biggest policy failure in Australia

Then Elon does a Nazi salute and it's apparently all cool. Let's not worry about antisemitism anymore.

Don't get me wrong, I thought the LNP and it's shills went way to far, but Musk showed us that they really didn't care.

 

[peetoo]

probably nothing in this. i cant recall anything happening 80-90 years ago in germany that may be bad.

walk like a duck, quack like a duck etc

Can imagine all Germans eye rolling at this simplistic message from an Uber nerd from overseas

Your mind must be an illuminating sphere of color.

The Australian public have more pertinent issues than Elon, nazis, and whatever else fuels general SRP outrage.

Censorship spruikers are the worst of all.

long may it continue.

In Leaked Email, Elon Musk Admits Defeat on Twitter

Twitter's financials are still looking pretty dire — as owner Elon Musk himself admitted in a January email to staff reviewed by the WSJ.

and

ps. and yes i do continue to go there and will do so until bluesky gets a hold of that sort of platform and the posters who haven't yet migrated do so.

If it were granted to you that maybe this isn’t a big deal in the scheme of things, would you at least admit that it happened?

I don't know, cowards pretending to be centrist seem to be high up on everyones list.

But yeah, you keep pushing for the guy who did the Nazi salute. What other Nazi propaganda would you like returned? Bring back the swastika?

What makes you think I'm a coward?

We share our views and progressives call us nazi/racist/transphobic then wonder why we vote as we do. As posted earlier, the right are far more welcoming.

It's a fascinating twist.

You are as centrist as Hitler was a socialist.

You vote for right wing candidates, because you are right wing.

You feel welcome in the far right, because.......

No one from the Centre to the far left feel welcome to places you do because we , you know, oppose Nazi salutes
