Crazy that child exploitation drag queen tranny shit was mostly greenlighted by womynz. Another proof that wommynz need checks and balances from !the patriarchy!, esp. single leftoid cat harridans. Otherwise they'll sell out the nation's kids to groomers and experimental gene therapies.

The #1 abusers of kids are women.

The #2 abusers of kids are women's "shack up studs." as Dr. Laura used to say. The recent case, that the shitlibs disappeared just as fast as they tried to use it as a hammer, of the teen girl who was impregnated is a good example. The single mother put up with it in order to get Fernando to stay in the house, paying the bills and giving her attention.

The #3 abusers of kids are women's relatives

Lol took me a while to make sense of it, but that is fucking creepy

I think #pedoroth should be a thing.

Ah, more good accounts to follow!

I'm not sure what he expected, but hats off to Dave Chapelle for bringing Elon Musk onto the stage at his Chase Center show. I think Chapelle recognizes the importance of what Musk is doing. It should be noted, though, if you introduce someone as the richest man in the world, they will get booed. At least Dave was able to get one good one liner off in the midst of the chaos, "It sounds like some of them people you fired are in the audience..."

The Libs have been bitching these past 24 of being "Ratio'd" by "Trolls".

In reality, the false consensus, which requires an army of fake support bots, is collapsing. That and the unbanning and the end of depreciating viral anti-woke commentary.

If Musk is the leader of this mass awakening event, he will be shut down in a second. The elites will cut the length of the leash he has now.

Completely unfunny, censored comedy goes over well with audiences that have no sense of humor.

Awesome!!!

The whole idea of employees pressuring their boss into some business decisions (apart from the usual stuff covered by collective bargaining) sounds completely bizzarre to me. It's like GM employees pressuring the company into abandoning manufacturing of their insanely profitable Suburbans and ramping up making of money-losing Sonics instead.

Yep, a whole new world.

That's what happens when Urban Single/DINK Millie Lib Art Major Trust Fund babies make up a huge proportion of your workforce.

Sure, blame the lowly “activist employees.” Sounds like a way to dismiss direct pressure by government agents — some of whom, yes, may have been agents working as employees.

Hate Elon Musk all you want, but he's got one management trick that every boss should emulate

In an email sent just before Thanksgiving, Musk told employees that "all managers are expected to write a meaningful amount of software themselves" and equated one's inability to code as an engineering manager to not being able to ride a horse as a cavalry captain. Musk's point is salient, and one I've made before: Managers need to be able to do the same work as those they are managing.

Managers have become alarmingly distanced from the average worker, making calls based on guesses that aren't informed by actual labor. This frustrating separation has poisoned most of modern management, creating a class system within organizations where a bloated sect of detached traffic cops extract labor without participating in or properly valuing it.

Altogether, the Twitter Files — an ongoing story — paint a portrait of clear and inevitable partisan bias at one of the most dominant speech platforms in history. A small handful of very left-wing executives, who naturally perceived most opinion right of center as dangerous, worked tirelessly to limit those opinions from view. Empowered to censor “unsafe” content, and protected by a team of people who shared their political orientation, the executives produced, in a legal and decentralized manner, a key component of our defacto state censorship apparatus. While we don’t know for sure this is also happening at Google, Meta, or TikTok (which is for some reason still allowed to operate in this country), I think it’s a safe bet we’re looking at an industry-wide affliction.

But I do have questions.

Where is the full list of shadow-banned accounts? Which political campaigns, specifically, communicated with Twitter, and what specifically was taken down? What about requests from foreign governments? What about requests from our own government?

“This relationship metastasized into something very close to authoritarianism during the Covid-19 pandemic, when a single state narrative was written by the press, and ruthlessly enforced by a fifth and final fount of power in the newly-dominant technology industry.”

You may be onto something here. Since none of these blue-haired content moderators are irreplaceable, they hardly had any real power to pressure twatter bosses into anything.

Twitter has suspended an account that used publicly available flight data to track Elon Musk's private jet, despite a pledge by the social media platform's new owner to keep it up because of his free speech principles.

Tweets from the widely followed @elonjet account were no longer viewable Wednesday. The account had more than 526,000 followers as of Tuesday.

“He said this is free speech and he’s doing the opposite,” said Jack Sweeney, the 20-year-old college sophomore and programmer who started the flight-tracking account, in an interview with The Associated Press.

Started in 2020 when Sweeney was a teenager, the account automatically posted the Gulfstream jet’s flights with a map and an estimate of the amount of jet fuel and carbon emissions it expended.

Sweeney said he woke up Wednesday to a flood of messages from people who saw that @elonjet was suspended and all its tweets had disappeared. He logged into Twitter and saw a notice that the account was permanently suspended for breaking Twitter's rules. But the note didn't explain which rules were broken.

“I haven't heard anything else, sadly,” said Sweeney, who said he has already filed an online form to appeal the suspension.

The University of Central Florida student said Musk last year sent him a private message offering $5,000 to take it down, citing security concerns. Musk later stopped communicating to Sweeney, who never deleted the account. Their exchange was first reported by tech news outlet Protocol earlier this year.

But after buying Twitter for $44 billion in late October, Musk said he would let it stay.

“My commitment to free speech extends even to not banning the account following my plane, even though that is a direct personal safety risk,” Musk tweeted on Nov. 6.

Sweeney runs similar “bot” accounts tracking other celebrities' airplanes. His accounts tracking private jets used by Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos and various Russian oligarchs were still on Twitter on Wednesday, as were his accounts tracking Musk’s jet on rival social platforms such as Facebook and Instagram.

Twitter didn't respond to a request for comment.

Sweeney had days earlier accused Musk's Twitter of using a filtering technique to hide his tweets, and revealed what he said were leaked internal communications showing a Twitter content-moderation executive in charge of the Trust and Safety division ordering her team to suppress the account's reach. The Associated Press has not been able to independently verify those documents.

Sweeney said that he suspects that he was banned because of anger over those leaks.

Musk has previously criticized that filtering technique — nicknamed “shadowbanning” — and alleged that it was unfairly used by Twitter's past leadership to suppress right-wing accounts. He has said the new Twitter will continue to downgrade the reach of negative or hateful messages but will be more transparent about it.

In his push to loosen Twitter's content restrictions, he's reinstated other high-profile accounts that were permanently banned for breaking Twitter's rules against hateful conduct, harmful misinformation or incitements of violence.

Sweeney said he originally started the Musk jet tracker because “I was interested in him as a fan of Tesla and SpaceX."

In the weeks since the Tesla CEO took over Twitter, the @elonjet account has chronicled Musk's many cross-country journeys from his home base near Tesla's headquarters in Austin, Texas, to various California airports for his work at Twitter's San Francisco headquarters and his rocket company SpaceX.

It showed Musk flying to East Coast cities ahead of major events, and to New Orleans shortly before a Dec. 3 meeting there with French President Emmanuel Macron.

In a January post pinned to the top of the jet-tracking account's feed before it was suspended, Sweeney wrote that it “has every right to post jet whereabouts” because the data is public and “every aircraft in the world is required to have a transponder,” including Air Force One that transports the U.S. president.

Boo fucking ho on these communist censors.

They called releasing legally obtained internal communications owned by the company who literally owns those messages to be some kind of Fascist Doxing, because it showed members of the company were colluding with the government to censor people.

Now they're whinging because they can't "Track Elon's Plane", just like they tried to assert doxxing Libs of TIk Tok and SCOTUS in their homes was just "Free Speech" in the knowing hopes that somebody would assassinate them.
