I’ve seen too many alternative platforms fall by the wayside to even trust Trump to build a successful new one

Tell us you don't know what you're talking about without telling us you don't know what you're talking about.
The platform has been in beta for two months. Trump has one Truth posted. There isn't even the web version launched yet. He's starting to use it this week since they just existed beta by going on Rumble Cloud to onboard the backlog of millions of people on the waitlist. Deal with it.

I got banned there years ago. I think it was for complaining about a Peter Bright article...
Now their favourite rocket boy Elon has sent them into a tizzy.
They also rag on the SLS despite proclaiming to love space exploration. I mean, yes, it's a massive pork barrel, but wishing it to explode, etc. is just... ugggghhh.
They are very good at downvoting the Russian trolls though, I'll give them that.

After the mass casualties we had from The Joker, Cyberpunk 2077 and Jk Rowling, not sure society can sustain another catastrophic event like Elon buying Twitter. The death toll will be incalculable

feels like at one point she used to be the darling on the left but now that AOC has taken that crown she's gotten more and more unhinged and irrational, especially at how much Trump clowned on her and broke her brain.

Can someone break it down for me why is this a good thing that we're going to have to pay for Twitter now that Elon Musk bought it?

Difference is come USA election time and another story like Hunter Biden comes along, Elon Musk's Twitter won't suppress the story, hence no election fraud.

Is this more bullshit like the bot accounts who were claiming Trump was charging $5 a month for Truth? I haven't seen anything legitimate saying it other than hyperventilating on Twitter.

Death by being subjected to opinions you don't agree with is common for San Fransisco folk.

I think the difference here is they're building it on the Rumble backbone, so they have a concrete foundation that won't kick them off and shut them down like the other platforms had to deal with by being on AWS.

From what i've been reading on the other forum, it seems the forum itself it's imploding, since 2 days ago they are making threads and posts trashing anyone old aka older that 25...

I just got done listening to an interview by PB S news from Washington Post "journalist". She said there was a real concern about removing the protections Twitter developed and having things like terrorist beheadings and child assaults on Twitter coming back after Elon Musk removed all the safe gaurds that Twitter employees worked really hard to put into place.
These people really do live in their own reality I am sorry that so many people probably end up taking this information seriously.

I'm hearing that a number of people who had been banned on Twitter are finding their accounts active again.
So the woke on Twitter know:
They are coming.

Imagine if the day Elon takes over, he immediately bans every single Russian state Twitter account.
Just *imagine* what the reaction would be among the whiners.

It died really really quickly. They banned everyone and the ops are total cunts. And the owner sold out, screwed the site over, lol.
The ops there are a true special case of stupidity. It's hilarious. Half of them can't even type.

...this is all literally because he tweeted that pronouns suck, isn't it?
Like... forget the entire company he set up to provide vehicles that don't run on fossil fuels, and the space program.
Because he said pronouns suck, he's the devil.
Is he perfect? Fuck no. Does he sometimes say and do stupid shit? Fuck, yes.
Is he worse than Jack Dorsey, or any other major player in global technology? Also, fuck no.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Mockingbird but that was more of a joking jest since it was all they could parrot.
And piss off with that dismissal, we all know by admission the current administration works with big tech(which we government funded) to censor and you're naive enough to believe they don't with big media.

Because it's inevitable that "Truth" becomes a spectacular failure. There's no more room for another social media platform.
FunkMiller

One of the main reasons Trump might not come back onto Twitter, even if Elon lets him back, is because he knows if he starts spouting his same old dumbass bullshit, Elon is likely to call him up on it, and make him look stupid. Donald Trump hates to look stupid, and he *really* hates to be reminded that he's not the biggest dog in town.
I want him to come back just to see the reaction from all the Trump fans when they realise Musk isn't on their side.

And he definitely will say something stupid. He's not even on Twitter and managed to say Putin was smart when Russia invaded Ukraine. So yeah, not a full deck of cards and definitely would get pilloried by Musk.

Yep. Musk is as likely to haul Trump across the coals as he is AOC.
The thing is, neither right nor left actually want a platform designed around the notion of free speech and equality, because that doesn't suit either of them. What they want is a platform that favours their particular viewpoint.
They're not going to get it with Elon Musk in charge. He's going to ensure Twitter does two things: makes him money, and attracts the highest number of subscribers. And he'll do that by squeezing the extremes out, to let more of the centre in.
My popcorn is ready for the joyous meltdowns to come.
