It goes back to the same questions: - Who funds this? - Who ensures employment security? - Would this not prevent diversity? - How would this encourage upward mobility? This seems like planned financial segregation. Factories began doing

Based on what criteria? NPR is specifically in the congressional budget by law..yes, we have a law to keep them funded by the US govt. Is the criteria money? coercion? backdoor-deals? bias? As per Twitter’s criteria, it’s money.

Large shareholders were moved to equity upon purchase. In other words..the Saudi you are referencing was a large shareholder of the “Old Twitter”. That’s along the lines of “how much did Russia fund Facebook” VTB (sanctioned bank) funded Fa

I believe you are arguing semantics. I am arguing that it’s fair. Whether it’s Fox News or Washing Post. If they receive govt funding, it should be labeled as per Twitter terms. The title of the label is a different discussion in which I a

I’m not sure what your argument is… They receive tax payer money. That’s why the label was given. Personally, I feel it’s appropriate. They can’t say they are independent is they receive govt funds.

As per terms, if you receive money from a govt you are state-affiliated. In my personal opinion: If you receive govt funding YoY, a public notice should be given - regardless of the politics.

Actually it does. If we want to hold people accountable, then the same charges should have been brought against Clinton and Obama. This is a stunt. Nothing more, nothing less.

I other words, 18% of the population. This also means 82% do not fall under this category. Obviously 60M sounds better than 18%, but horrible misrepresented title.

I was being a little facetious. You can’t do anything about voting mob mentality, it’s just internet culture. You guys have been great at moderating verbal assaults and bullying. If I could say anything, it would be to stand by your TOS and

If by “finest” you mean a Reddit mob mentality for tech, then yes I completely agree with this statement.

NPR does receive government funding. If the requirement for the label is that a government funds a particular news agency, then the label would be correct.

So..like the current “trans movement”. People so badly want to latch onto something they that they jump on the band wagon for anything that is mainstream.

Hillary Clinton: Charged with $113,000 for breaking campaign finance law. Obama: Charged with $375,000 for breaking campaign finance law. Regardless of how you vote, this is a political stunt and witch hunt. Next Biden will be indicted when

A mockery of our laws. H1-B is intended for companies that are unable to fill a specific role within that company. It is NOT a free green card. It is NOT a free pass to citizenship. Once that role is gone, so is their visa. This is what the

It’s sad to see you downvoted and yet your comment is completely on target. Not every situation is about “climate change”, but unfortunately this is too common when you go against the mob narrative.

We don’t live in a socialist society. These companies chose not to diversify their risk. If they didn’t know their accounts had a max insurance rating of $250k, then they deserve to fold. FDIC insurance is intended for consumers not to be i

97% of accounts are not insured. The whole point of the $250k rule is so you don’t wake up and are homeless. This is a corporate bail-out. 1. FDIC revoked the limit and is ensuring unlimited funds. 2. Providing funds to other banks that may

Talk is cheap. Back up your claim. Do you have downtime for the past 2-3 years?

If they had talent, they would still have a job or easily move into a role they prefer. Doing a job vs talent are completely different animals. By the way, since we are arguing over downtime..does anyone have tangible stats on this?

Or…the code base is a house of cards built by a poorly managed company. Then when changes are made the legacy code falls apart. This is the more likely scenario. Ultimately Twitter like the rest of the Valley was built on some great develo
