After several american conspiracy theories about elections came to brazil, it seems that at least one is going the other way.
Brazil has a robust system for voting without paper ballots, all votes cast at a voting station (no vote by mail), but there are right wing complains for several years that the system is not secure and that it can be manipulated.
However, they never complain when they win nor participate actively in the audits that are made before the elections to ensure that the system is safe.
And, each year a right wing asshole propose a new stupid way to introduce paper ballots again.
If you leave before big brotherâs speech ends, if your participation in the five minutes hate falls short of proper usage of free speech there will be consequences âŚ
Do you remember when they hired some expert from Argentina to prove that Mr. Lula stole the election? Even statistic students debunked that comedy sketch.
Also email spam filters. Any Nigerian prince requests and boner pill advertisement should be forwarded directly to Musk, and if heâs somehow filtering them out and not reading them heâs violating the Constitution.
I am not on xitter, but I hang around an electronics forum (probably the most famous one), quite well moderated, where off topic/politics/religion/pseudoscience etc. is frowned upon and usually results in the thread being locked and some bans.
Even in this âcleanâ technical environment, I have a list of blocked users rivaling my personal contact list and continuously growing?
Why?
Some people are rude, some are a-holes, some are petulant or annoyingly pedant, many are, simply, bigots.
I donât need to read their stuff or interact with them.
A way to avoid unwanted interactions is the very basic requirement of a common place.
If I am at a party, I can move to a different corner of the room, or take a leaf from TMBGâs book.
Online, I need a filter.
Itâs not a joke, just arrogant solipsism. Of course X canât work without a way to remove people, but if Musk doesnât like what someone is saying he can just kick them off the site. This is only saying that nobody else should have the power to block because nobody else matters. Itâs his place and his rules and how dare anyone want different.
I mean Iâm not gonna follow him on any of those either. Iâm done with billionaire social media where they can take their ball away if they want to change the rules yet again and you donât like it.
No more. I havenât signed up to a shiny new service in years.
Iâm surprised Twitter isnât under investigation from Labor (both), equality, and FCC. If itâs not, why not?
Prima facie a bunch of cases to answer thereâŚ
This is the main reason he pouring money into puppet. He hopes his Trojan horse Vance will invoke the 25th and cancel all federal investigations into his house of cards. To him, the sky is falling so it doesnât matter to throw millions here and there to keep the scam running.
If Vance doesnât deliver, then Musk, in his capacity as head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), will recommend abolishing those pesky agencies.
