You're so incredibly boring.

The platform previously meant that anyone could interact with anyone, now only paid members have that privilege. You are expose to a mountain of ads which was also not the case previously.

Previously, your news feed was almost entirely made up of posts from the page you'd decided to follow - it's now littered with content from pages you have not followed, but the algorithm has decided you might want to watch.

Objectively, it's a much worst platform now than it was. Pretty much anyone who uses it would agree.


Maybe, but my previous statement still stands.

It was a leftist cesspit, and now Musk is cleaning up and redressing the balance.

like from BBS to HOL ?


are Tech Giants just feeding us all an echo-chamber of our own views ? Youtube, X , facebook etc.

so Anjem Choudary & Tommy Robinson both see mirror opposites in all the daily news-stream ?

Unfortunately, the media generally panders to its target audience.

In the case of the Palace websites, I presume that it is a case of birds of a feather. On the BBS specifically, it is run and paid for by people who are largely left leaning Blairites. They basically ban anyone who disagrees with the clique of leftist users.
That is their prerogative as the administrators.

Elon Musk clearly hates the grip the left has on the media and decided to use his money to change that.

Don't use it then! I never have and never will.

"Pretty much anyone who uses it would agree." Are they all incapable of doing something else with their time, or perhaps switching to a platform that isn't "much worst", do you think?

Agreed.

Now will Elon accidentally on purpose fall down the stairs ? or suffer some other tragic accident ?

befriend Julian Assange & the ghost of Jacob Epstein ? get caught with Andrew Tate's ex girlfriend's dna stain ? or get the cancer that got Bill Hicks ? or do Porridge with Tommy Robinson.

or be implicated for an ex-love affair with one of Donald Trump's exes >

You noticed that.

The left are the useful idiots of the 'illuminati'.
It's funny because their ideals run completely opposite to the people who pull their strings.

Anyone important or influential who speaks out against their agenda will either disappear or have their reputation destroyed.

Did you ever consider you probably don't have anything useful to add to this topic in that case?

Blimey Dan you sound like you've lost a tenner and found a fiver.

Surely you can do something that would cheer yourself up.

Agree - he's absolutely ruined what was a good platform.

The 'For You' section which is a never-ending feed of content from accounts that you don't follow is an absolute shambles.

It's a real weird journey he's undergone Elon - but then he's a very weird bloke.

Have to agree - he's paid a massive price for a loss making company and ruined it.

The 'free speech' argument is not acceptable when people are inciting violence and/or racism as these are criminal offences.
Nobody would bat an eyelid if someone was arrested for circulating illegal images so surely the same has to apply to words.

His actions in recent times have become quite weird - from him strongly disliking Trump to now being his cheerleader.

He has also openly impacted the war in Ukraine by turning off
Starlink to Ukraine despite having supplied these via Pentagon defense contracts and has recently become quite pro Russian in his posts. Is he now actively working to thwart US foreign policy?
