Or at least fast moderation.
Something vile and illegal stays up for almost days on there when on any other site it would be instantly gone within minutes or hours.

I hate how he ruined the site just out of spite. Get some mods and stuff because its literally becoming garbage.
What is the best alternative to this site that is everyone uses instead? I am gonna leave

Elon Musk is a free speech absolutist.

Unless your free speech involves:

- insults about him
- insults about China
- terms he doesn't like, like 'cis'
- actions he doesn't like, like creating bots he doesn't approve of
- doing anything he particularly doesn't like
- not supporting his political party

Just make sure you like the things he likes and post things he likes and you'll be fine.

I don't think anybody tops Musk in smugness. He'll probably reach the point of petitioning the dictionary to have the word changed to Muskness.

Yep, coming from the guy claiming "I'VE GOT TWITTER FILES THAT PROVE BIDEN WOULD HAVE LOST THE ELECTION IF YOU'D ONLY SEEN HUNTER BIDEN'S DICK PICS" even though that claim was dissected and demolished. Only to turn around and literally interfere on behalf of the Turkish government.

Not allowed but this asshole Elon fired the moderation team and has some interns working to moderate millions of posts a second so trash stays up for days. I hope advertisers find out and leave the site in droves and hope the FBI investigates his platform for making it easier for illegal content.

True but in old Twitter all those guys would get moderated and now they are free to just talk shit no problem it so cringe

Its funny because the discourse is what keeps a lot of the people who are argument prone from leaving. So basically its always been a shithole and it always will be.

Right, this. His site is amplifying and paying (or at least promising to pay, but we know Elon is really bad at fulfilling his promises) white nationalists and other right wing cretins.

Offensive, sure, but illegal? I've been on the site for... 10 years give or take? And I've never once seen anything illegal posted. Maybe a couple things government-censored here or there, but nothing that would be inherently illegal on its own.

Dont take this as celebration of Elon, but yesterday my nephew told me he makes around $200 a month from X. So it seems he kept his word.

A right wing influencer posted some very nasty CP, involving torture.

It was taken down and the account banned.

Musk intervened to restore the account.

That's the person some people defend.

According to Musk, sharing CP is ok as long as you're doing to to promote outrage and it was only deleted for legal compliance.

There is still moderation. Saying cis can get you in trouble. So can attacking bigots.

Yeah, the place is rapidly declining for sure. It's starting to turn out that all I'm seeing is blue checks farming for engagement by reposting shit or saying controversial stuff, and so many replies are from OF girls.

It's strange to me because everybody on the internet claimed to hate Twitter, even big Twitter users, BEFORE Musk even bought it. So what's with the obsession with Musk apparently "ruining" Twitter?

twitter always had toxic traits but now musk has turned it into a full-blown propaganda mill with zero accountability for the worst actors on the platform
