if i see one more twitter takeover meme, so help me..

yeah, well too bad. because this is just irresistible.

because it’s time to make twitter fun again

and let’s face it, this move has made ALL the right people angry.

and if one may know a man’s vices by his friends and his virtues by his enemies, well, then whoo doggie is senor muskrat one seriously virtuous fellah. (yeah, i know, he’s not. but i think he’s on the right side of this issue and i have never seen the oppressive opponents of fair play and free speech widdle their pants so prolifically while wailing woe at the cessation of their aristocrat status.)

they are not even upset about being denied speech. because they won’t be. they are apoplectic at the idea that others will be allowed to speak as equals.

“we’re being inclusive so you all need to be silenced” is not a mantra that will survive contact with free speech.

and the fear of “no rules” is palpable from the class of those who have spent a decade rigging the rules to ensure the continued perception of their relevance.

Stelter on Elon Musk buying Twitter: "If you get invited to something where there are no rules, where there is total freedom for everybody, do you actually want to go to that party or are you going to decide to stay home?"

but it’s all going to go bye-byes in a world where ideas must compete of a fair field.

(it’s also quite possible that this is why no one invites concussed news-potato joy thieves to parties. enjoy your netflix brian…)

because you, like a zillion other woke and bio-fascist faux authority accounts are about to get a whole new group of followers.

and others will drop from relevance entirely, because, let’s face it:

and without overt preferencing and promotion, these covidian clownshows will have to pack up their tiny cars and drive off into the sunset.

in financial news, copium was trading limit up as “if elon takes over i’m cancelling my twitter account” because then new “i’m pretending to move to canada tantrum.”

please leave the place as you found it. j/k, we know you cannot be trusted, especially the bluebirds themselves:

the screaming, wailing, and overall lunacy of those losing their right to manipulate the conversation has been as outlandish as it has been entitled.

“monitoring toxicity and health in trends…”

how about monitoring “self awareness with regard to petulance?”

the outright hallucination got pretty thick (albeit predictable and trite) as team “one trick pony” once more claims that everything they do not like is white supremacy, blissfully unaware that this canard is so far past its freshness date that each use merely discredits the speaker further and reveals how bereft of reason or discernment they are.

even certain internet felines most ignominiously defenestrated from casa del bluebird were being maligned as “propogandists” and “destroyers of democracy" by NPC’s with virtue signal flags substituting for their identities in an apparent attempt on the world record for oblivious self-mockery.

in the plus column, gatopal™ jay bhattacharya was seen to be pilfering cat memes and using them to good effect. (we’ll make a feline of you yet, jay…)

i am grateful to all those advocating for the return of the bad cat.

it means more than you could know.

the end results here are uncertain. i have no idea if old accounts will be invited back or what comes next.

but the fact that it took all of an hour for the white house to respond by threatening censorship and the restructuring of section 230 “the 26 words that created the internet” because they no longer get to place a thumb on the scale makes me optimistic.

Washington Free Beacon @FreeBeacon

Psaki says the Biden administration would support "reforming Section 230, enacting anti-trust reforms," and "requiring more transparency" on social media in order to combat COVID-19 misinformation

you don’t get fear like this unless change is coming, and this is desperation.

they know how much trouble they are in in a world played fair.

and this, like the rest, is not going to work. these are troglodytes trying to take flint axes to microchips and imposing implausible top down diktat upon a datasphere that wants to be free.

the iron law remains:
