I can't even read specific public transport updates in my city because they only post those to Twitter, only vague messages on their own website.

That’s a rather poor state of affairs but is surely an issue to take up with our local authorities. Is that their only communication channel? There’s no website, RSS feed or at least mirror feed on an alternative platform? We should have prevented Twitter/X and other platforms becoming quasi-official communications channels for public institutions.

Have you thought about complaining to your public transport provider?

  If he salutes like a Nazi, pushes antisemitism like a Nazi, and promotes Nazi policies, he's probably a Nazi (or at best, functionally indistinguishable). Plus, his parents had close ties to Nazis: https://www.democracynow.org/2025/3/27/elon_musk_south_africa https://www.democracynow.org/2025/3/27/elon_musk_south_afric...

    He is not though. Then can we please stop driving Volkwagens (original Nazi car), BMWs, Mercedez-Benz, Audis, Ford, and Porsches because they contributed to the actual holocaust and the Nazi regime. Maybe stop using IBM's services, close your Deutsche Bank account and stop reading the Associated Press. What you are describing is guilt via the sins of the father and diluting the word "Nazi" to become meaningless.

  X is 88 in ASCII. That is literally Hitler. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/88_(number)#In_neo-Nazism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/88_(number)#In_neo-Nazism The renaming of Twitter, the MechaHitler incident, the Nazi salute, the 14 flags post, etc etc. It can't be any plainer. Not only does Musk ideologically align with Nazis, he can't stop expressing all sorts of literal Nazi symbols. https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/events/elon-musks-14-flags-posts https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/events/elon-musks-14-flags-po...

    >X is 88 in ASCII. That is literally Hitler. I hate Elon Musk with a passion, and he's definitely a Nazi, but he's been trying to do something with "x.com" since he bought the domain from Paypal in 1999.

      Couldn't that simply mean that his Nazi proclivities go back all the way to at least 1999? ASCII was invented in the 1960s.
