All this twitter and facebook stuff ....

I wonder if they were ALL part of trying to sway the election away from President Trump and have now finally conceded ....

Why would a bunch of talkers suddenly stop talking unless there were never any talkers there in the first place ?

Twitter’s major problem is leftist trolls preventing balanced participation and leftist bias in their algorithms and moderating staff.

When Twitter and Facebook level off,reform and stop their overt political activity, IMHO they will be good investments. Like it or not they are a part of the culture and young people will continue to use them as their means of communication and identity.

Amazing. Censorship and discrimination isn’t good for business.

Just ask that zit-faced Zuckerberg and the commie at the Red Hen.

Just for my political views.

I bet they regret banning all those fake users (Obama followers) and “Russian bots”.

Actually, Facebook is becoming the new Myspace. Young people are leaving it in droves and it is seen as “what my grandma does.”

I think everyone is kind of tiring of the whole thing, except those that spend all day on social media. Again, mostly grandmas.

Twitter is sewage for the weak of mind.

I don't use FaceBook. I don't use SnapChat. I have a flip phone that doesn't even allow texts.

And I don't Twitter, Tweet, or make other bird noises ...

Wall Street is trying to tell us the reason for the price plunge today is the result of Twitter purging fake accounts.

However, ‘shadow banning’ is a major factor for the price drop.

Twitter is playing politics and Trump called their bluff.

Hoping they lose all their money and go bankrupt. They have established themselves as the front line in destroying any thought that runs counter to leftist dogma.

Something like social media is probably with us until something happens that causes a collapse of the infra structure, but it seems to me that there will likely be a great number of platforms succeeding each other, and that squeezing money out of a particular product in the long term is not something that can be guaranteed. The most likely scenario to me is a series of electronic gold-rush towns. Very good to be the first in, and ok to be a little late to the party, but you want to be sure that you will earn your capital back and you don’t want to buy in when the thing is on its way to being a ghost town.

If it wasn’t for the President’s Tweets , I would never look at Twitter.
