More background on that gentleman here:
(I refuse to follow Twitter links, even for stories that are critical of Twitter. Why give him the ad revenue?)
I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who thought of that.
TwitterIsGoingGreat linked to the Southern Poverty Law Center profile and an Associated Press story from when the bench warrant was issued.
Edit: I missed the BoingBoing post.
The post that I was replying to definitely has a real Twitter link in it. I was just trying to clarify why I was posting a story with redundant information.
The eternal question. Is Jesus’ love big enough to encompass even Nazis?
I mean, without giving too much of my religion in here, I actually think the answer to this would be yes.
But it’s also Jesus of the infinite love and grace fame of the Bible. I think he’d be okay if not everyone could be that way. I certainly don’t think he’d expect others to share that level.
And Ye is nowhere near Jesus so…
Elon Musk treating black people differently from white people is the least surprising aspect of anything.
No worries. I wasn’t trying to imply that it didn’t, just offer another alternative which was relevant to what else I wanted to post (but I see it has already been covered).

"The real McCoy" is an idiom and metaphor used in much of the English-speaking world to mean "the real thing" or "the genuine article", e.g. "he's the real McCoy".

Under Elon Musk, the company has cut its financial expectations as some advertisers request discounts and are offered incentives.
they’re singing about him aren’t they?
Hey, someone who wasn’t fired got a chance to talk.
The social-media company is doing away with certain manual reviews and favoring restrictions on distribution rather than removing certain speech outright, its new head of trust and safety said.
Irwin, who joined the company in June and previously held safety roles at other companies including Amazon.com and Google, pushed back on suggestions that Twitter did not have the resources or willingness to protect the platform.
She said layoffs did not significantly impact full-time employees or contractors working on what the company referred to as its “Health” divisions, including in “critical areas” like child safety and content moderation.
Two sources familiar with the cuts said that more than 50% of the Health engineering unit was laid off. Irwin did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the assertion, but previously denied that the Health team was severely impacted by layoffs.
That article also talks about the move toward shadow banning, which reminded me that by restoring Trump’s account, the 2018 nuclear button tweet is back since Twitter didn’t remove it at any point before the account was banned. Which means it also shows up in the news articles which linked to it. But the important part is that it might not be in anybody’s timeline, sure.
The tech billionaire's latest move will likely ingratiate him further with conservatives — and plunge the social media platform deeper into political controversy.
Earlier this week, Elon Musk teased the release, tweeting, “The public deserves to know what really happened …”
