Well, I did it. I left Twitter. Crushed at what Elon Musk is doing to the site. Posting an "88" meme did it for me.
@jacklerner
I haven't heard anything about this yet. Is the Musketwit's tweet still up?
@EarlDGray @mbauman @jacklerner damn, I understand now why it was offensive.
Also you need to fix your link, it's adding the username at the end. (You can edit posts)
@lgtm @mbauman @jacklerner I’m a newbie. How do i edit posts?
@EarlDGray @mbauman @jacklerner On the website click on the three dot menu on your post, you should see an edit option
@lgtm @EarlDGray @mbauman @jacklerner is this something that only works on computer I don’t get option on my iPad?
@saversms @EarlDGray @mbauman @jacklerner it’s on the website. The app you are using might not support editing, I’m using the Toot! app which has editing.
@mbauman
Thanks for finding this. Geez.
Normally I am charitable to people online because of a variety of factors, ranging from my own personality and philosophy of discourse to compensating for my own lack of a reliable social "gut sense". Sometimes, though, there's so much evidence around something that there is no charitable explanation, only ones that are uncharitable to various degrees.
This is one of those occasions. I don't see any way this can be read to not make Musk look worse than he did before.
@jacklerner
@mbauman @jacklerner @mathlover So, straight-up Nazi dog whistles from Elon Musk. Good to know.
@mathlover Yeah unfortunately it is.
@jacklerner
Geez.
I was looking for it just to confirm that he's gone over the stupid end, but I haven't found it in his recent media. I assume it was an older post of his? (Good lord why haven't I heard about this then?)
@jacklerner
Okay, figured it out. Found the tweet, which is text. Yeah ...
@jacklerner @mathlover yes.
