He really had no choice3 after Musk shut down his kiddie porn and kiddie prostitution ring on twitter. He needs those little boys.

” As influencers and celebrities fret over chaos at Twitter”

My heart is broken.

Just like twitter but with more censorship. Who would find that attractive other than libtards?

So that’s why he has been mean-mouthing Musk all day.

I’d like to ask what ‘chaos’ is there? For the average person at Twitter you can log on and use it as always. And its basically just the same as before except for slightly altered moderation policy for controversial accounts. Theres not any service disruption or anything like that. The main front facing controversy is who gets blue checkmarks. So really there isn’t any relevant ‘chaos’ unless you consider musk taking over to be ‘chaos’

“ironic choice of names”

“Echochamber” would have been much more appropriate.

With prominent leftists signing up, it sounds like it will be just like the old Twit. Pass.

Even better, it will be almost exclusively Libtards who join, guaranteeing a vast echo chamber devoted to un_personing.

I agree. I have Twitter. I couldn’t care less about blue check marks…

Radical leftists currently find Twitter toxic now that people can contradict and mock them without being shadow banned and cancelled.

Regular Twitter users are doing just fine.

Radical leftists want the ability to influence regular people. Being isolated in an echo chamber won’t satisfy them.

Let the liberals currently in Twitter go over to Blue Sky.
They have no sense of humor and can’t meme. They can bore each other to death in their little echo chamber
