Is booing Elon Musk a threat to our democracy?

Also, Adam “tinfoil hat” Schiff is super pissed at Elon.

i didn't really like the part where Dave was mocking his own fans for what they supposedly paid for tickets to his show. I mean, i'm sure they were cheap. Anyone who has tried to buy tickets for a live event knows its very straight forward, fair, and equitable pricing.

Yeah and he still has a lot of people who will cape up for them. He chose to mock people who have been watching him since he was on Def Comedy Jam and Half Baked all because they booed this rich man who spends all day trolling people and making enemies. He's a sellout. He lost me when he was throwing around his money on his NIMBY crap in Yellow Springs, this is more of the same. He's become a detached elitist and it really makes his social justice based stand up empty and hollow. It appears that 8:46 was a tipping point for him.

Harder to separate the artist from the art when that’s how he decides to do off the cuff crowd work

I thought we had a twitter files thread, but didn't see it on page 1 or 2.

Bari Weiss dropped the first thread that I felt was more than basically a nothing burger today regarding the twitter ban on trump/jan 6. Interesting read.

If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

Is that it? The end of the Twitter files?

That last thread had some slacks(?) among employees but didn't seem to include anyone who actually agreed to make the decision. To me it just showed that there was debate and some people were happy about it and maybe the way the ruling applied to trump wasn't applied consistently across the world? Yawn

 (and fwiw I don't think he ever should have been banned but could agree with riot-inciting tweets being removed)

If that’s the end of the Twitter files it shows twitter was a pretty well run organization pre-Elon.

Agreed. It’s like the people lapping this up have never been in a work environment before?

It was all just a big conspiracy theory until it wasn't.

Twitter moving along just fine with substantially less staff . . . but it was an extremely well run enterprise (that of many things allowed pedophiles to flourish) . . . #blueanongE  :thumbsup:

Ted Cruz shared a link to some porn that one time. That's still not exactly "porn on twitter" though.

I saw a really funny video, so I looked up the guy who posted it on twitter. Turns out, he's like a gay burlesque performer or something like that. Whole lotta penises in his posting history.

Twitter - The playground for pedophiles, no biggie.  Some chick says she's not going to wear a worthless mask (unless it's N95 or better and in a highly ventilated area) and #blueanongE goes into meltdown mode disguised as DeflectoBotting  :thumbsup:

A new CEO was hired to take over a struggling company. The CEO who was stepping down met with him privately and presented him with three numbered envelopes. “Open these if you run into serious trouble,” he said.

Well, three months later sales and profits were still way down and the new CEO was catching a lot of heat. He began to panic but then he remembered the envelopes. He went to his drawer and took out the first envelope. The message read, “Blame your predecessor.” The new CEO called a press conference and explained that the previous CEO had left him with a real mess and it was taking a bit longer to clean it up than expected, but everything was on the right track. Satisfied with his comments, the press – and Wall Street – responded positively.

Another quarter went by and the company continued to struggle. Having learned from his previous experience, the CEO quickly opened the second envelope. The message read, “Reorganize.” So he fired key people, consolidated divisions and cut costs everywhere he could. This he did and Wall Street, and the press, applauded his efforts.

Three months passed and the company was still short on sales and profits. The CEO would have to figure out how to get through another tough earnings call. The CEO went to his office, closed the door and opened the third envelope. The message said, “Prepare three envelopes.”
