One news article said X was drowning in misinformation. Meh. More like Elizabeth Báthory soaking in the tub.

“Amazing to see this exchange!”–Our Elon.
This Xweet reflects an attitude central to the rich-tech-bro philosophy: everything is a big game, and with my money power I can stir the story up and make it more exciting. Ooo, look! I got the heads of warring countries to use my plaything to threaten each other! I’m so cool! Thousands dead? That’s not my problem.

Yeah, this really does seem like Elno’s whole reason, inasmuch as he has one, for buying Twitter, given how he’s been going out of his way to spread misinformation by repeating it and promoting pure disinformation accounts while claiming they’re reputable. If that wasn’t his purpose… then he’s an even bigger idiot than he previously indicated (and that’s saying something).

Since Musk has gutted the safety and moderation teams and no-one is coming back, I can understand why his future scapegoat and her team of lackeys are the only ones left to handle it.

Or is the Scaramucci the appropriate unit?

And also - what could be less amazing than to discover that people on opposite sides of a bitter conflict should express hatred for each other on the internet? Never saw that one coming…
