Elon's Twitter

This is for topical issues effecting our fair world... you can quit snickering anytime. Note: It is the desire of the leadership of SFDebris Conglomerate that all posters maintain a civil and polite bearing in this forum, regardless of how you feel about any particular issue. Violators will be turned over to Captain Janeway for experimentation.

As for "free speech"
Yeah you’re better to try governmental accountability and transparency.

Ye formerly known as Kayne West got banned from Twitter. Due to making a David's Star merged with the Nazi symbol.

I guess freedom of speech does have a limit afterall.
I got nothing to say here.

Being an out and out... "Hitlerist", I guess... You can be a Fascist Neo-Nazi, but don't go direct quoting Mein Kampf or whatever... Not enough plausible deniability, I presume.

That symbol is the Raelian UFO cult logo incidentally, he didn't create it.

I saw that as well.

That cult from what I have read so far has nothing to do with Kayne West or Ye's bullshit.

Someone has to ask him publicly how he feels about Nazism on Blacks. Someone has to grow a pair and do that. Because under the original Nazis Mr. Ye would have seen the oven like those Jews that he is openly against right now.

The Theosophist symbol is a merged ouroboros, swastica, and Star of David. It has nothing to do with the Nazis.

Dunno how that relates to West. But Twitter is absurd: it ought to ban nothing that is not prohibited in the US.

Honestly I'm astonished the site is still running at all this long after he fired all the engineers and started tinkering with the back end. It's a Hanukkah miracle.
