He’s accusing Substack of trying to scrape the Twitter database, and therefore nobody can like or retweet Substack posts because their “IP address is obviously untrusted”?
This is the kind of explanation that sounds good when you give it to a close circle of yes-men who won’t dare disagree with you, but falls flat when posted somewhere that anybody can think about critically.
Also, the pandering replies from the social media grifters trying hard to break into Elon’s inner circle are just sad:
> Got it. Please DM so we can take this private.

- jollofricepeas 4y agoThis is what modern corporate cancel culture looks like. Billionaires buy media companies and politicians for a reason. Its the same reason, totalitarian govs control their media and politicians. The playbook is the same: 1. Make an individual decision against an individual, group or organization (ie. target) 2. Make your plea to the masses using your platform of choice to stoke fear, hatred or worst (complacency) with your policy 3. Act violently, disingenuously towards your target We have not evolved beyond lynching in America. We just do it differently now.
