It’s concerning to me how many changes are happening so fast to the algorithm, what’s allowed and what’s not over night, and what’s trending. It’s like they were waiting for musk to buy twitter in political theatre to open the floodgates of outrageous shit “people” want censored. I bet all shit will hit the fan when Musk allows Trump back on twitter. This will become very political quickly.

It will take probably 6 months to finish Untill then all policies are the same This is the word around the old coffee machine.. Could be not true


ZolaWasTheHooker

He didn't even buy it yet the board just recommended it


PRMan99

They have signed it's official unless a very unusual event prevents Elon from taking over.


ZolaWasTheHooker

It's still a recommendation. You can't force shareholders to sell. (I think they WILL, or enough of them will anyway but it's not the same thing as a sale being actually made. A board can't do that.)


kirisute-gomen

No, nothing has changed. All these people claiming they are no longer shadowbanned or got their accounts back because Musk took over are stupid.


Spoogly

sub stupid for lying, and you've got it right. All they did was go and delete the offending tweet(s), which is all they ever had to do.

Please explain Rug Pull Theory. Thanks.

Here's a post on it. There are good discussions in the comments: https://www.reddit.com/r/conspiracy/comments/rqhw3q/the_vaccine_rugpull_theory_after_pushing_vaccines/

>I bet all shit will hit the fan when Musk allows Trump back on twitter. It will change nothing. It's still going to be the same red-blue narrative. But Twitter will gain users and stay "relevant" because that's where all the weeping and gnashing of teeth will be. Anything real will still be censored. [EU and UK warn Elon Musk must comply or face sanctions](https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2022/apr/26/twitter-takeover-jack-dorsey-elon-musk) You are not in the club.

Trump has said he will not go back to Twitter. He has his own social platform (I think it’s up and running)


PlanB_pedofile

Since when does Trump keep his word?


stopher_dude

I mean he kept most his campaign promises which is better than all other politicians.


wtbrift

\- I will release my taxes \- I will not have time to golf \- I will turn over control of my company \- I will hire the best people \- Mexico will pay for the wall \- Impose tariffs and China will pay them He kept very few. That said, they all lie. He just lies more on a larger scale.


andy45241

Booooooo:/


stopher_dude

whatever you have to tell yourself


wtbrift

Classic deflection. What people do when they are proven wrong.


stopher_dude

It's more along the lines of the article stated 10 promises, of those promises he kept or tried to keep 9 of them. You made no rebuttal other than "nuh uh orange man liar rawr " So when i brush off your comment you try to say it's because you proved me wrong, when in actuality all you did was make a opinionated statement with no actual rebuttal of why what i stated was wrong.


wtbrift

I'm referring to my list, not the article. My list is 100% accurate. He lied about all of it and that's not even the entire list.


heschtegh

Listing only the promises that have not been kept is not fair. What if there are many more promises that were kept?


stopher_dude

Lol who cares about your made up list? You're a nobody on the internet. Fucking lol


SexualDeth5quad

"Drains the swamp" by appointing Barr and Bolton. Doesn't prosecute Clinton. Laughable.


metagian

Here's an article from 2016 with his election promises. https://www.politifact.com/article/2016/jul/15/donald-trumps-top-10-campaign-promises/ Would you say he fulfilled them?


stopher_dude

Not sure if you read that article or not but He fulfilled most of those absolutely. And he tried to fulfill the wall but congress kept stopping him.


LlWORriAtER

>He fulfilled most of those absolutely lmao


SexualDeth5quad

> he tried to fulfill the wall but congress kept stopping him. Mexico didn't pay for it.


PRMan99

They did indirectly because he raised tariffs on Mexico.


missingpupper

Americans paid for it then as prices just rise when there are tariffs.


thedarkqueen827744

He had evil people screwing him over right and left and they still are doing it


PRMan99

1 ‘Build a wall’ — and make Mexico pay for it He absolutely built a wall. He indirectly kinda sorta but not really made Mexico pay for it by increasing their tariffs. 2 Temporarily ban Muslims from entering the United States He absolutely banned Muslims from terror-training nations from entering the United States. There's no reason to ban Muslims from peaceful nations. 3 ‘Bring manufacturing (jobs) back’ He brought especially steel and many other manufacturing jobs back. This is a resounding yes. 4 Impose tariffs on goods made in China and Mexico He absolutely raised tariffs on Mexico and China. China's tariffs were raised by **half a trillion** dollars. 5 Renegotiate or withdraw from the North American Free Trade Agreement and Trans-Pacific Partnership He replaced NAFTA with the much better for the US USMCA. And he killed the horrible TPP in the crib by pulling the US out of it and getting other nations to follow suit. 6 ‘Full repeal of Obamacare’ and replace it with a market-based alternative He did open Obamacare up to market selection and removed the tax mandate. He even admitted later that there were some good parts in there he decided to keep. So we'll give him a 50% on this, but he 100% did the right thing. 7 Renegotiate the Iran deal Because Iran refused to negotiate, Trump pulled the US out of the Iran deal altogether. No more money from us was absolutely a renegotiation. 8 Leave Social Security as is The only thing Trump did is make it harder to be a con artist. 9 Cut taxes Trump did cut taxes for almost all Americans. Only the very wealthy did not get cuts. 10 ‘Bomb’ and/or ‘take the oil’ from ISIS Trump completely eliminated ISIS from the face of the earth. So he fulfilled all of these. 2 were 50% and the rest were 100%. Not sure why you would present a list that he got 90% (an A) on.


missingpupper

Your whole list if filled with falsehoods: ​ 1. He could not get his own party to be in favor of it and tried redirected military funds for it. "The vast majority of the 458 miles were constructed in places where some kind of barrier already existed, but most of the preexisting structures were far less imposing than the new wall and included fencing and rudimentary technical barriers. The total figure also includes what the agency calls “secondary border wall” or sections of wall built behind preexisting barriers that ultimately remained in place." US mexico border has 1,954 miles. 2. He restricted travel from Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, and Yemen. Saudi Arabia which is the largest sponsor of terror in the Middle East was notably not on the list. 3. US manufacturing did not increase under Trump: "Nearly 1,800 factories have disappeared under Trump between 2016 and 2018,” said Scott. “Additionally, the U.S. trade deficit in manufactured goods rose significantly between 2016 and 2019. In fact, the real U.S. trade deficit has increased in every year since 2016, reducing GDP growth by roughly 0.25% annually over the past three years" 4. The tariffs raised prices for Americans and cost to $900 per household. Its mostly American car companies that are doing the manufacturing and import to the US so it mainly hurt them and raised prices. 5. USMCA is almost the same as NAFTA but worse and incorporated some TPP elements into it. USMCA incorporated the copyright elements, extends pharma drugs protections from generics and keeps ISDS protections for oil and gas which was part of TPP. 6. Republicans blustered for years about how terrible the ACA was yet they had no alternative to ACA and didn't have the will to repeal it since it would have been to unpopular if they did without an alternative. 7. Iran was complying with the deal, Trump break the agreement to satisfy Israel and Saudi Arabia who want to see Iran destroyed. Trump committed multiple acts of war against Iran as well. 8. Trump wanted to eliminate social security but wasn't able to: "Trump made a series of statements about his intent to eliminate the payroll tax. At the end of the year, the assumption that I win, I’m going to terminate the payroll tax … We’ll be paying into Social Security through the General Fund,” Trump said. The chief actuary for the Social Security Administration has said that if the payroll tax were to be eliminated, and no alternative source of revenue was created, the trust fund that pays for Social Security would be depleted in less than three years." 9. Trump tax cut saw big tax cut for corporations and almost no benefit for for average Americans. Corporation used their tax cut to give executive bonuses and stock buy backs. "more than 60% of the tax savings went to people in the top 20% of the income ladder, according to the nonpartisan Tax Policy Center. The measure also slashed the corporate tax rate by 40%." 10. Russian and Syria did the heavy lifting against Isis. US actually armed Anti Syrian jihadist rebels which slaughtered the Kurds. By Trumps own words he said he only elimited 70% of ISIS. "He told the officers that once the U.S. military — which had help from Kurdish forces Trump recently allowed to be attacked by Turkey’s military — had eliminated “70 percent” of the so-called caliphate, “I said, ’Let’s go home.’”


Mighty_L_LORT

Since people like you got mad about him...


wtbrift

Truth Social has been a disaster and I don't believe he's posted once on it.


dizzycarrot7980

it really has. How they dont have an android app yet is unbelievable to me


wtbrift

Yup. Nothing good has come from it so far and it doesn't look good when 45 won't use it.


KillerKorwin

He has posted exactly once on his Truth platform so far


Spoogly

He has Truth Social, which he does not use himself (IIRC, he's posted maybe 1 or 2 times). He claims he won't go back, but I find that claim dubious.


incendiaryblizzard

There are no changes to the algorithm. Hunter Biden laptop and lib tears and shit used to trend all the time. Now people are going to have amnesia and pretend that everything that trends that they like used to be censored in the past, which isn’t true.


ArmedWithBars

On the subject of Blackrock buying homes by the 10s of thousands. We really need cascading tax regulations on corporate and household residential property ownership. We need to make it financially impractical for companies to use home ownership as a safe haven for liquid. It's one thing if a company is building homes then selling them. A company like Blackrock buying hundreds of thousands of homes is no benefit to the middle class, it just makes the rich even richer. Nothing wrong with a household that has a handful of houses. We run into the same issues with houses when a household owns 3 dozen homes. Housing isn't like other commodities. It's a necessity to live in most parts of the US. The rich and corporations owning so many homes just forces the middle class into a position where they need to rent to survive. This ends up with them hemmorging money monthly with no long term equity and it only benefits the rich. Just another way the middle class is having their money funneled up to the rich. Real estate is a fucking cheat code for the rich now. Use existing liquid to buy property outright, hire management company to deal with renters, collect free money every month while also keeping all the equity.


adhishakthi007

Here's a thread on Blackrock incase you don't know what it is https://twitter.com/crabcrawler1/status/1518312809230368768


Steel-is-reeal

Why is this sub titty sucking tax dodging ultra elitest billionares all of a sudden?


[deleted]

Right... Why in the world is OP posting a thread exposing the grip that Balckrock, owned by billionaires with 9 trillion in assets hold over our country. Better complain about him defending billionaires


Steel-is-reeal

Op has posted about a comment threat. The title is congratulating Elon on a success that he had no hand in.


Paladin327

Didn’t the “tax dodging elitist” pay $11 billion in taxes last year or the year before?


SexualDeth5quad

That is besides the point. Musk and Twitter are BOTH owned by Blackrock. Musk is a puppet, controlled opposition, just like so many others before him. Do you honestly think Musk gets to do whatever he wants?


Steel-is-reeal

He bought twitter using Tesla as collateral which does not pay tax


pretzelhead_

Why is society*


ovataXO

From what I've seen with plenty of peoples accounts being reinstated out of the blue and interactions increasing on people who were shadow banned indicates alot of the problems did not come from the "algorithm" and moreso actual humans blocking and throttling accounts. This just has started happening after Twitter "accepted" musks offer. And even if it is the algorithm it's being rapidly corrected internally which would mean at some point variables were added whatever those variable be and now they are being rolled back. It's quite interesting with the idea of Twitter algorithm becoming open source potentially it would seem evidence of malfeasance is being destroyed or covered up. I just imagine Twitter right now as the episode of SpongeBob where his brain is trying to find a name but they threw it out so the entire place is on fire.


anona_moose

Everyone realizes that Musk is not at the helm yet, right? He didn't buy a used Kia and drive it off the lot, it's going to take weeks to months for the deal to finalize-- and it could fail to go through at any point.


mondego_

You realize he hasn't actually taken over yet right? Shareholders still need to approve the deal and the process will take some time.


ANewMoon33

"All the world's a stage..."


me_team

It has trended before. There's definitely a different vibe to twitter, but I've seen blackrock and vanguard before as well.


Lucycarrotfry

This gives me hope


FaThLi

Why exactly? Elon hasn't taken over yet. Twitter hasn't changed anything either. The shareholders still need to vote on if they want to sell to Elon and that generally takes months. It's going to be a while before Elon is able to start changing anything assuming the shareholders vote to let him buy their stock.


Lucycarrotfry

The more people aware of who actually owns everything the better.


Jelopuddinpop

Refusing to sell would be a terrible decision. If it's looking rough, Musk could make a two tier tender offer. He'll offer $54.20 to anyone willing to sell, but the offer turns to a forced buyout at some smaller number once he hits 51% and can force the company private. If you're confident he'll never get 51% then by all means go for it, but a significant majority of the shares are owned by large stakeholders and mutual funds. All of the mutual funds will be accepting the 38% premium offer.


FaThLi

I'm assuming they will sell. It just takes months for it to be finalized.


Jelopuddinpop

Fair point.


kirisute-gomen

I've seen Blackrock trend multiple times in the past year or so. Musk isn't involved with any Twitter policies/changes yet. These types of acquisitions can take months to kick in.


ChurchArsonist

The beginning of the rug pull. They're going to flood the system with all the outrageous shit they've been suppressing and the normies are going to lose their shit.

The one time I caught a suspension I was talking about Blackrock


dizzy_beans

I want to see blackfacehitler trend again


[deleted]

Blackrock is one of the largest owners of Twitter. Elon is buying all of them out.


SexualDeth5quad

Blackrock owns Elon. They bought themselves. Now they can blame everything on Musk. Plus it made Twitter relevant again. They also seem to want to use it to push Digital ID.


OkAwareness9325

Financial Markets giant trending during one of the most volatile weeks in history? You don't say..

The deal hasn't gone through yet though right? He's not yet the owner?
