There’s a Twitstorm a Brewin’

“You guys taking it all in? Because this is what it looks like when Google acquires your company for over 200 million dollars. Look: Dustin Moskovitz. Elon Musk. Eric Schmidt. I mean, Kid Rock is the poorest person here. Apart from you guys.” – Silicon Valley

The Mrs. didn’t want to go to a fortune teller because they always looked so depressed, but we settled on a happy medium.

Twitter© has officially unbanned Donald Trump.

It’s unclear if Trump will ever return to the platform that, arguably, he used better than anyone else.  That being said, Elon Musk, who made the decision based on a Twitter® poll, made it clear that he thought The Don could not turn down the offer (I actually verified this one, but not all Tweets© are verified).

I’m not sure if Trump will return.  I think that the number of followers that he has is simply huge, and that’s enticing for him.  But a contract that he signed notes that if he’s going to use social media, he has to use the Truth© platform first.  After six hours, he can use the other media.  I’m not sure he’s that good at waiting, and honestly, the power of the Twitter© platform is the instant gratification from watching the responses and likes showing up.

We’ll see.  The number of followers (over 80 million) is probably too much for him to ignore.

But this has some folks up in arms.

All of the letters of the alphabet have been declared hate symbols by the ADL© except for the letter C.  Why? The other letters are not c.

Some folks are really upset.  I think this one is a parody, but, who knows?

Juneau he’s gonna be disappointed.

And even the Mayor of London can’t resist making the point that his speech is the speech that shouldn’t be banned:

If Sadiq Khan, so Khan you.

And though Musk isn’t going to unban Alex Jones, he is bringing back Project Veritas©.  These folks don’t upset the Left as much as Trump does, but they are still Enemies of the Left.

I hope Veritas© does some investigations into hammers – that would be hard-hitting stuff.

Predictably, some Leftists have left Twitter™ and gone to other platforms; Mastodon® is popular.  But the Leftists are upset that their Leftist ideas don’t get an invulnerability pass like they got on Twitter©.

Why can’t mastodons clap?  Because they’re extinct. 

Some Leftists are just upset that Elon has $44 billion in the first place:

And some called Musk a hypocrite for banning folks for breaking a simple rule he’d put in place:

The Chinese military was banned from using Apple® watches due to them being a security risk.  One soldier cried, “But my eight-year-old daughter made it for me!”

But I’ll leave the last word to Kevin Sorbo (of Hercules and Andromeda fame)

  1. The number of followers (over 80 million) is probably too much for him to ignore.

    Yeah, no.
    75,000,000 Leftard bot accounts, and <5M actual followers is something he can ignore pretty easily.

    When Musk cleans up the accounts the way he lightened the employee load, going on Twitter is going to to look like signing onto AOL.

  2. I still say the ONLY reason Musk is so interested in Twitter is he wants it to be the killer app on Starlink ten years from now. All this current squabbling about what American celebrity personal accounts are on or off and what Twitter staff is coming or going is just noise.

    Precicely zero of those countries other than the US have “constitutionally protected free speech”, and Musk has already said he will comply with local censorship laws when the time comes.

    To Musk, Twitter is all about monetizing eight billion people to fund sending thousands of people to Mars. Everything else is a (amusing) side show.

  3. No matter how much empowerment and privilege the Tracy Chous of the nation receive, they always will hate the Ebil White Male.

    They resent white men not because they are oppressed, but because inside their dark hearts they want to BE white men. Valid or not, they view white men as the pinnacle of creation, and seeing as how they cannot change their skin color or gender, they are left only with destroying white males and the culture that white males — for the most part — built.

    There is no cure for the constant resentment and rage of these Woke Legions, because God is not going to unmake their sex or race attributes and tra la la magically make them white men. They never will be satisfied in their own skins, and somebody has to pay for that.

  4. Emmanuel Trumpstein won’t be returning to the bird brain hive because he doesn’t need it anymore.
    WEF Elon can get some fresh printing press fiat from Klaus or go directly to the private banking cartel after way overpaying for the blue turd.
    OG rapper Tone-Loc can chime in with an I need eight dolla to make you holla, I get paid to do the alphabet soup honeytrap thang from wayback in 1989 and Wild Thing.
    When will we have enviro friendly lithium battery powered Teslas to fly to Mars with its hospital to humans enviroment?
    But, but, but, muh techno triumphalism?

  5. So…CBS “quit” Twitterland for four whole days. That’s not just laughable – it’s pathetic.

  6. 🤣🤣🤣
