So much for free speech
At this point we just need a large compiled list of every instance of it. There's so much that I can't think of an example right away.
I wonder why the guy who bought Tesla might not want the UAW represented on the platform he bought? I can't think of why that might be
In completely unrelated related news:
One of the things their talking about is an increase for workers who deal with electric batteries...
Ah, the "free speech absolutist" doing completely free speech stuff.
Just as much of a Musk hater as the rest of them, but this was posted elsewhere. UAW changed their profile photo at the same time they announced the strike, which triggered the flag on the account. Apparently this is standard with all verified accounts until the photo can be reviewed.
Anywho, fuck Elon Musk!
From the original Intercept article:
This article was updated to include information about a Twitter policy to temporarily remove checkmarks from verified accounts that change their profile pictures. Twitter offered only an auto-response to The Intercept’s request for comment ahead of publication. The article was previously updated to note that Twitter restored UAW’s Twitter verification after publication.
So, a non-article by somebody who didn't do their research and has already resolved itself. Got it!
Twitter offered only an auto-response to The Intercept’s request for comment ahead of publication.
By this, they mean that any media questions to Twitter get auto-responded to with the poop emoji. Because Musk is a child.
It's time to put some of these billionaires in their place. Nationalize his shit, seize his assets, and revoke his passport and citizenship. Fuck Musk, sick of his childish attention seeking bullshit.
Nationalize SpaceX for sure. Let him keep Twitter though, at this point it's such a dumpster fire that it's more of an albatross around his neck than an asset, we don't need the tax payers carrying that shit.
I would say we give him the French treatment. Fucker is just wasting oxygen
For Ukraine sure but
That seems like a bit of overkill for this
This instance on its own, yeah.
But it has been a pattern again and again.
If you are still on X, then you deserve the world you are struggling in.
Hey the auto workers are striking now... can we just like... do a general strike already?
This dude is such a pussy. I wish he wasn’t terrified to fight Zuckerberg so we could all watch him get his ass kicked.
This whole incident probably took place from automation. As others have stated they changed the profile photo and the system needs verification. The software probably has a hash value for the photo and when they changed the photo the hash value changed triggering the chain of events. You guys are really hung up on hating him but he probably had nothing to do with it other than the initial design verification.
The real story here is that a union was willingly giving money to Elon Musk
That is not the real story at all. Unions work with organisations, that's the point.
Xitter ! love it, now lexicon
Usage: Can’t wait to watch Xitter (pronounced Zit - ter) pop after Musk wrecks the train.
"To a request for comment, X only sent Ars an auto-response, saying, "Busy now, please check back later." (To be fair, in this case "check back later" is a good summary of what happened.)" 😂
Couldn't this be breach of contract for services not rendered?
