  > impotent seething Interesting word choice from a man who idealizes people like Trump and Musk, can't stop posting about how oppressed and marginalized men is, and calls transgender women men.

    I don't idealize Trump. I said he was objectively right about Russia in one conversation where he got laughed at for saying they're a threat and that Germany is too dependent upon them for energy [1]. Nothing about that involves seething. I agree he was a terrible president overall, and I've said as much. I don't misgender people, either. Never have. I just don't demand everybody else should have the same view. Again, no seething. And why would I stop posting about male sexual assault victims? I am one, I am mad about it, and you bringing it up shows what kind of "person" [2] wants to control the conversation :) [1] https://youtube.com/watch?v=M5MJEMHZZsI https://youtube.com/watch?v=M5MJEMHZZsI [2] https://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/article/the-problem-with-fake-male-feminists https://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/article/the-problem-with-fake-...

      > I am one, I am mad about it I didn't know that. That sucks. Unfortunately it is an underreported issue because of the stigma. > he was objectively right about Russia The media presented it like he was a genius stating the obvious in the middle of his isolationist speech. It was an obvious talking point. He certainly did a lot to cozy up to Russia, and more so to Saudi Arabia.

        > I didn't know that. That sucks. Unfortunately it is an underreported issue because of the stigma. Almost like men are subject to gendered expectations and discrimination, isn't it? The feminist superposition of simultaneously totally caring about those issues (toxic masculinity!), but also attacking anyone who talks about them, is quite tiring. > The media presented it like he was a genius stating the obvious in the middle of his isolationist speech. I doubt any mainstream media outlets outside of Fox News presented him as a genius. More likely they took the same mocking tone as the other representatives at that NATO dinner. He's a broken clock, but he was 100% right about energy dependence and NATO defense funding. How you read that as me "idealizing" Trump, I have no idea.

I bet the lickspittle 'joirnalists' that work at that digital rag stay on the platform.

  The article was clear about that, the hopelessly addicted politicians, reporters and celebrities will stay, not question about that. The argument here is that heavy moderation will stay too, for one because that's how you make money, and for two because Elon Musk wants to follow the law of the land, and those laws keep tightening. Conservatives don't mind digital gulags as long as they get to be the wardens, but they will be disappointed this time. Everyone will be. And that's how Elon Musk will bring people together. We will all sing kumbaya while hating on him.
