The thing that pisses me off the most about this is that evil gets a shit ton of money from elon musk.
>>342976Musk also gets his money from evil.
>>342975Hope the sales goes through, and that Elon stays true to his word of making Twitter more open to free speech (and shitposting).
>>342976Tesla makes it's money from carbon credits.
The same carbon credits that every faggot wants and gleefully pays.
How does the scam work?
X company pollutes.
The State says X company needs to pollute less, or pay into something that offsets it's pollution production.
X company shops around and finds that they can pay Tesla B dollars to make The State ignore them.
X company pays B dollars to Tesla.
Tesla uses that to produce "green energy storage", which it uses in it's "carbon neutral" vehicles and grid tied energy storage.
The State tells faggots that they can't have petroleum powered vehicles.
Instead of killing The State, faggots shop around and get a vehicle from Tesla for those sweet upvotes while showing their loyalty to The State.
Elon has managed to get faggots and the evil syndicates to pay him to exist as long as "going green" exists.
This is an evil I can get behind.
The biggest scam, which wasn't created by Elon, was to convince the world that current generation lithium batteries are green.
NiMH Priuses are unironically more "green" as long as they're driven till the wheels fall off, then rebuilt. An 80's I4 Japanese diesel is more green as long as the same is done to it.
>>342979I'm no Musk simp. I just like that this is making trannies seethe.
>All of the trannies who've been telling right wingers to move to Parler are suddenly upset about lack of other options
I've been suspicious of Musk (as I'm of anyone working within society) and I'm been on this rodeo enough to not care for some supposedly e-celeb /ourguy/ doing something for us. Did Trump's presidency bring about change? But I get that's not what anyone of us is saying either and I do like how fucking stupidly these people are reacting. He is obviously not gonna remove them or block them but just because others are not gonna get "moderated" it's no longer a home for them. Kek.
>>343001>pic 3Maybe the plan was unsatisfactory? Maybe the story is fictional.
>>343007Elon would accept Torba's offer to fund Gab if while he and Twitter are in the news if he was serious about free speech.
I expect him to turn Twitter into a cuckservative haven where you are permitted to mock CRT and marxism, but talk of the jews behind it all gets you banned.
>>343007This. Nothing ever happens, all that's left is the honk.
Here is basically my take on this:
According to the statistics I've seen, only around 20% of the US population actually uses Twitter, and 80% of the posts come from the top 10% of that 20%. That slice of the population is overwhelmingly left-leaning, educated, wealthy, and urban. As a news and information platform, Twitter is not that different from the legacy media it replaced, insofar as it is a mostly one-way conduit of information controlled by the progressive left.
Elon Musk's characterization of Twitter as the world's primary political discussion forum is therefore inaccurate; it's mostly a tiny circlejerk for lefty journalists, celebrities, politicians, PMCs, progressive wonks, trannies, and other mental defectives. The irony here is that in a sense the predictions these faggots are making in these screencaps are accurate: if all the mental defectives decide to leave Twitter in protest and the site can't attract a new userbase, it probably will collapse. Personally I don't think any of them will actually leave; most of these people are too addicted to the sound of their own voice to willingly give up their megaphone. We'll see what happens I guess.
Anyway, as I see it there are two big takeaways here. The first is that, for us, this isn't really that big of a deal. This is mostly just another "own the libs" kind of empty victory, where we get to have fun watching these idiots overreact to something, but it's unlikely that anything that matters is going to change as a result of this.
The second takeaway, however, is that there is literally no downside to this either. One of two things is likely to happen: either Elon Musk succeeds in transforming Twitter into an actually useful platform, and it becomes a legitimate public forum where ideas can be openly and seriously discussed. Alternatively, it collapses and goes the way of MySpace, in which case nothing of value has been lost.
So, all in all, I would say this news is a good excuse to crack open a tasty beverage and enjoy a nice hearty kek.

>Yes, Elon Musk buying Twitter has the potential to be a very good thing. No, it's not because Elon is our savior, or principled, or anything of the sort.https://www.bitchute.com/video/zNrtCNm_kj0/>>343024Seems to me like it's a good thing for lefties to self-select themselves off the platform. Reducing their own social media reach only damages their ability to spread propaganda, after all.
I am somewhat concerned if they have enough collective numbers to boost a competitor to a viable size and bury the "New Twitter" before it can really achieve anything. I suppose this is where we must count on the principle of normie apathy; that 95% of people don't give enough of a shit to change websites, making any attempt to sandbag the site pointless and ineffective.
I believe Elon will be faced with a number of tough challenges as he moves forward with reforming Twitter:
>employee disobedienceWe can be sure that a high number of the employees of Twitter are true believers in The Message. These people would be completely poisonous to keep around, since their political stance would push them to sabotage the site and interrupt attempts to change it. But, you can't just walk into the company and immediately fire so many employees, since many of them are important individuals with system/ technical knowledge that can't afford to be lost. They'll need to be phased out gradually over the coming months, ideally with enough time to train replacements and document "tribal knowledge". A tough balance to achieve.
>competitor sitesWe can be sure that the woke mob will attempt to self-segregate themselves from Twitter and create a competitor. The media of course, will boost these alternatives as much as possible. If they were to succeed in poaching all of Twitter's userbase, it would basically make the entire purchase a massive waste of money. Not sure how you necessarily fight this scenario, other than to just make sure people would rather stay on Twitter.
>advertiser pulloutI expect to see a number of woke companies pull out of Twitter in protest. I don't know much about how Twitter is monetized, how profitable it is. But Elon will need to make sure that the site can stay profitable in the face of any economic warfare that will be levied against it.
I've been thinking for a while about how we could have a self-sufficient ecosystem of right wing websites and platforms if only we had options for cloud hosting, and payment processing. Maybe the next step for New Twitter would be to expand into offering such services, making use of Twitter's cloud infrastructure to give other smaller sites an option for hosting and monetization outside the rest of the Big Tech monopoly. This would go a long way towards creating the self-sufficient ecosystem I described earlier, and I believe it's an untapped market with a dizzying amount of potential. There's a huge number of people throughout the west that have basically been shut out of the internet due to censorship and deplatforming. Millions of paying customers just waiting for someone to give them a home. That's what I think New Twitter should become. Go beyond Twitter and create a web of services that enable our side to exist.
>>343057Gab wants Elon's satellites so ISPs cannot censor Gab, right?
>>343057> I suppose this is where we must count on the principle of normie apathy; that 95% of people don't give enough of a shit to change websites, making any attempt to sandbag the site pointless and ineffective.I don't see any reason why this principle wouldn't apply; this is basically the reason why Gab and all that never took off.
MY TAKE
it'll be shit. Or worthless change at best.
the problem with twitter is it's shit userbase. it's filled with too many libshits controlling the conversation. adding """free speech*""" sounds good but Elon will most likely appease the lefty mob. therefore:
no ban appeals for racism
racism still bannable
racism still illegal
white people get 1 Nword pass(only 1)
porn still allowed
bringing normal people to twitter is more akin to a 2016 tumbler raid, but people only get banned later for racism. I don't think anything has fundamentally changed. just another window to make things worse.

It's very difficult for anyone to buy a network made of thousands of independently owned servers. (It's the same reason why no one owns the world's email network, because there are so many independent providers out there.)KEK mastodon (the website) is so pozzed. The software is decent at least. pone.social is a good website.
>The real purpose that Elon Musk acquired Twitter that I don't hear anyone else talking about - (9:50 long)https://www.bitchute.com/video/nOV6njuu72ju/Spoiler alert:
It is a monologue saying it out loud: after creating a bubble of sheeple, the next step is to open the gates for the opposition to make the final dossiers. Do not fall for the NWO honeypot.
>>343139Idk. Yes, but also no. I doubt this Elon Musk guy but I also think that the idea that we need to preserve our anonymity is kinda pointless. For all we know, Bitchute could also be a dossier of dissidents. The internet could very much be an aquarium. It's better to give the fight your all than to try to keep your opinions a secret.
Idk. Perhaps I'm wrong, but I can't help but to think that the fear of being public with our opinions keeps us from changing people's minds. I actually doubt that the police is gonna come and kill you and so on for being a dissident. The frog is being boiled slowly so it's not critical like that yet.
To be honest, I don't what is the right or wrong thing to do in this situation just wanted to add this perspective. Please tell me what you think, I'm curious.
>>343139>Do not fall for the NWO honeypot.Did you think Twitter was anything but a NWO honeypot before Musk bought it?
>>343163If you use Google, YouTube, Steam, Windows/MacOS, or pretty much any other modern computing service that connects to the internet, unless you are super-autistic about blocking cookies AND don't put any personal info of any sort on any account, there is enough information about you online that you could be found if someone wanted to find you badly enough. I've actually been taking some normie-level PI lessons in my free time just for giggles, and it's amazing how easy it is to find most people. There is literally no way to prevent information being collected on you other than to not use a computer at all, not have a bank account, not have a mailing address, and not have a job; in other words, have absolutely no public identity.
Skynet isn't anything super-sophisticated, it's basically just that pretty much all companies collect data of some kind, and they all share it with each other. Government scrapes this data regularly and keeps it in a large database along with the stuff that they themselves collect on people. Odds are, for the average person, that data will never actually be scrutinized by a living person; the point is that they have it if they need it. Thus, your basic point here is correct:
>I can't help but to think that the fear of being public with our opinions keeps us from changing people's minds. I actually doubt that the police is gonna come and kill you and so on for being a dissident. The frog is being boiled slowly so it's not critical like that yet.The extreme paranoia exhibited by some people on the right is silly and unhealthy, for three reasons:
1. Odds are you're not an important enough target to actually merit the close scrutiny you're worried about
2. Completely hiding yourself and refusing to actively engage in the public debate just gives credibility to the enemy and prevents like-minded people from forming effective networks
3. If they want to find you badly enough they can find you, so it's a futile effort anyway.
The only way to 100% guarantee your own safety is to be a complacent goodthinker who does everything he is told and never complains or questions (and even then there is no actual guarantee of safety, because by taking this approach you are basically waiving your own right to exist). If you were that sort of person you wouldn't be here at all.
>>343169>If you use Google, YouTube, Steam, Windows/MacOS,Well, I don't touch any of those globohomo services from at least 2008.
>>343169>Odds are you're not an important enough target to actually merit the close scrutiny you're worried aboutSure, most are nobodies, however the point is not play the adversary's game.
Remember, there is a clique of government's employees that claim to be more rightful than the rest and the citizenry are not allowed to put them under surveillance, let alone to police them.
This is a very serious matter that cannot be dismissed or diminished.
>>343171Right. But the overall point is that if nobody stands up to them the situation is never going to get any better. No worthwhile fight has ever been won by people who refuse to assume any level of personal risk. If our side is so cucked and pathetic that people are afraid to shitpost memes on Twitter because they think the Feds are building a dossier of their shitposts then we probably deserve whatever happens to us.
>>343178What is the safest way to spread redpills on twitter without getting arrested?
>>343179Investigate your local laws and spread whatever redpills don't violate them? I honestly have no idea how to even answer that.
>>343179One doesnt simply 'spread a/the redpill' arbitrarily, or along a 'well established method'. You have to INVENT the method and means, because all the 'conventional' methods/means have bee observed/compromised.
If you want it done right, DIY
>>343169>I've actually been taking some normie-level PI lessons in my free timeWould you mind sharing where/how you got those lessons? I'm interested.
>>343170Alright, but do any of your immediate relatives, the business you work at, or your neighbors use those services? Data isn't collected just by what you do, but everyone around you as well. It's not that hard to trace people through their friends/relatives.
it's official, the EU wants to abolish free speech.
Macron also wants a law that restricts and cancel anonymity on the internet.
I never thought I'd say this that I'm going to use Twitter as a mean of free expression, that says a lot about the world we live in now.
>>343163>I actually doubt that the police is gonna come and kill you and so on for being a dissidentThe fact is that they already do and have done this for a long time, if you are dangerous enough. Just look at GLR, Francis Parker Yockey, Malcolm X, Bill Cooper, Dr. William Luther Pierce (I believe his death was unnatural), John McAfee, and various journalists. There is good reason to suspect that, with Twitter's censorship essentially defeated, the U.S., UK and EU will engage in more coercive measures to keep this regime together and will go after more people.
However, I also agree with
>>343169. There's an above-average chance of me dying from unnatural causes because I'm a political dissident, but that shouldn't stop me from working towards a better future. Don't be afraid of death.
>>343249>Dr. William Luther Pierce (I believe his death was unnatural)Same, he was heart attack gunned, for sure.
>>343431By the way, the GOP is silent and absent.
>>343432They will quietly "reach across the isle" and support the Democrats when they come out with a bill to "regulate" social media (AKA criminalize free speech in the name of combatting their twisted definition of misinformation). I'm sure they'll sell it to their voters as fighting Big Tech, even though the regulation will just further entrench the existing major players as the only companies capable of running a social media platform, because the laws will make it impossible to do so without an army of lawyers.
>>343179Kill the person who arrests you, convince others to also do so, and wait for the opposition to run out of police. it's unfortunately the only actual way and why most people allow themselves to be enslaved.
>>347562They chose to die on the
"How many of your Twitter accounts are spam bots?" hill?
Why? Is that really so important to them? Is it possible that the spam bot information resource that is being asked for instead contains some links to some of the information and proof that is REALLY damaging to (((the ones responsible)))? What might that information potentially be?
If I had to guess, I'd suppose that the information might lead to some sort of AI bot that's managing the thoughts and opinions of very large numbers of people at once. The bot that updates the programming of the NPCs, if you will.
>>347571Look like Twitter really don't want the real numbers to come out. Could be in addition to having to lower the price they will be liable towards their stockholders for lying or willfully deception in their SEC filings (or yearly/quarterly stock filings).
>>347571>If I had to guess, I'd suppose that the information might lead to some sort of AI bot that's managing the thoughts and opinions of very large numbers of people at once. The bot that updates the programming of the NPCs, if you will.I believe that is very likely to be the case.
Just look at this video:
https://youtu.be/efPrtcLdcdMMan trains a ML chatbot on 3 years of archived 4chan /pol/ posts and the end result is something frighteningly convincing. The only reason why it was noticed at all was because he wasn't trying to hide it, and he let it make an inhuman amount of replies over the course of a few days.
This is just some guy on Youtube messing around with publicly available AI technology. It is certain that governments and tech corporations have their own ML projects that are years ahead of what this guy had access to. In addition, the NSA's work over the last two decades of collecting and archiving all Internet communications (as well as private conversations) provides a gargantuan dataset prime for use with training chatbots.
Given this information, I think it's safe to assume that these entities have all the requisite resources and motivation to create fake Internet accounts that parrot government propaganda online. With cooperation from social media companies, it would be trivial to create an endless amount of fake but 100% legitimate accounts. In fact, most of the company wouldn't even know about this. It's possible that the numbers Twitter gave to Elon were accurate as far as their business department knew, but fell far short of the real numbers that only the glows would be aware of.
I feel like this doesn't get talked about enough, but we are already living in a post-human era. It's impossible to know exactly how far these AI systems have spread, but they are already being used all over the place in Tech. Our destiny is no longer our own.
