Companies aren’t fucking people you braindead, full-of-shit, techbro asshole. (Just to be clear, this is directed at musk)
“Companies are people too, my friend”
-Mitt Romney, in an incredibly out of touch statement.
“In fact, if we look at the only marker that counts - money - then corporations are even more people than people are.”
Corporations own the domestic housing market, your car through software, you phone and devices through proprietary firmware, and your media through subscriptions.
Corporations are the only citizens.
We are serfs with no rights to own anything.
“We do not use the term ‘serf’ here. It makes the serfs uncomfortable.”
Mitt Romney is a real inspirational character. He got to the top of the political world with nothing but hard work, hussle and a 10,000,000$ loan from his father!
That’s why his street name was RMoney

You know what, I’ll deadname it even harder.
I used to call it Twitter/X.
From now on I’ll just call it Twitter.
Too bad I can’t call it Shitter, but we’ll all know that’s what we mean so it’s okay:-P.
I think we should call it “Ten”. See if we can infuriate Musk.
I think I’m in love with you now.
You could call it Zwitter, it is the German word for hermaphrodite.
The prerequisite for being a hermaphrodite is to be a human. The Musk is not that.:-P
Also,
heit wants us to specifically not call the company “Twitter” anymore. So I’m thinking maybe I could call it “Twitter Twitter Twitter Twitter Twitter Twitter Twitter Twitter Twitter Twitter Twitter Twitter Twitter”? :-D
Why not twixtter?
That’s the site dedicated to many people’s favorite chocolate and cookie candy.
What are you, happy on crack or something? Oh then, carry on my good man. :-P
I have decided: The Musk specifically asked us not to call it “Twitter”, therefore I shall call it “Twitter Twitter Twitter Twitter Twitter Twitter Twitter Twitter Twitter Twitter Twitter Twitter Twitter”.
I dunno, maybe some days I could call it “Twitter” for short:-D.
it’s important to remember that elon musk is a 50 year old man which makes it even sadder
X now identifies as apartheid media instead of social media. The name change is important to make this distinction.
Twitter FIFY
The site metadata refers to it as Twitter for like, those media cards Facebook Messenger and Discord make when you send a link, so I guess to stop my browser from deadnaming the site I should just stop visiting it.
Twitter itself still refers to itself as twitter on multiple parts of the website.
They didn’t even change the URL.
Lord the chaos that would ensue if they changed the URL without redirecting from twitter would be a world wide funny. Like when tinypics shut down
X is a letter and not the name of something.
Malcolm frowns upon your shenanigans.
The shithole formerly known as Twitter.
Formerly? You mean it’s not called twitter?
No he means it’s dead.
Like my dead rapist uncle formerly known as John.
Another right-winger who self-owned thinking they’d do a clever script flip.
I know right!
Why do I feel he’s deadnaming his daughter, in the rare times they speak to each other?
When your trans daughter disowns you, and your remarks are anti trans, how the fuck are you not dead naming her.
I would be so shocked to find out he wasn’t.
Elon is a massive piece of shit, but this is a genuine question because I don’t follow everything with him…
Has he been anti-trans?
Edit: Jesus Christ… Can’t say I’m surprised.
He directly promoted the transphobic film ‘What is a Woman?’. Not sure if he’s publicly done more than that, but his trans daughter doesn’t want to be related to him at all and changed her name accordingly.
Yeah he’s been pretty blatantly anti-trans. This article has more info, but the highlight here is that his daughter, who is trans, disowned him.
This is just the first result from Google
https://www.businessinsider.com/elon-musk-shares-anti-trans-content-twitter-2023-6?op=1
tl;dr, At Xhitter, he fired the people who took down promotions for a film inciting anti trans hate and then promoted the film.
I can’t say for sure because I don’t give much of a shit about him, but IIRC (I read this years ago) he has a trans daughter who’s cut communications with him. So probably.
Elmo refuses to acknowledge the transition of his own child.
The fucks going on in Sesame Street
For a while now, yeah.
Very
He deadnamed his own kid, if memory serves. One of his daughters is trans.

can we just go with xitter? yes, that x is pronounced sh :D
I always refer to it as this in text, but say twitter when speaking in person.
I like calling it X. It means I can call tweets Xcrement
Xitter is also acceptable in my book .
Twitter tweet twitter tweet twitter tweet twitter tweet twitter tweet twitter tweet twitter tweet twitter tweet twitter tweet twitter tweet twitter tweet twitter tweet twitter tweet
We should exclusively call it “Twitter (called X by Elon Musk)”.
He really shouldn’t get to rename it to X for two reasons:
First it shouldn’t be up to the whims of one idiot, millions of people use that and it’s just annoying for no good reason. Social media needs more democratic governance from the users. They shouldn’t be the product, they should be shareholders.
Second it’s a name that “harms” language because X is used for many other things so it increases confusion and block out other meaning. It’s just a shit name that now we’re forced to use because of some plutocrat.
So yeah I think people should absolutely keep using twitter no matter what. As an act of disobedience against the rule of plutocrats. Or of course, just always crosspost and refer to mastadon instead.
Or of course, just always crosspost and promote mastadon instead.
“As posted on the subpar alternative to Mastadon: X”
name that now we’re forced to use because of some plutocrat.
no one is forcing you to call it X instead of Twitter
