Guy shoots down Elon's brainless submarine rescue idea
Musk: What a pedo guy!
Guy posts actual CP to Twitter (sorry, I'm not gonna call it X)
Musk: This is fine.
sorry, I’m not gonna call it X
I have mixed feelings about this one.
Should I call it X because all that was cool about Twitter is now dead so it would make sense to stop giving that terrible social network any credit from the former one?
Or should I continue to call it Twitter because I know it will infuriate Musk that no one recognise X as his own company?
Or should I use a totally different name that everybody will understand, like say The dead bird, and kill two birds with one stone?
Nah, Musk has been trying to co-opt the 24th letter of the alphabet for 30 years, he's a wannabe Steve Jobs and he wants his own one letter legacy.
The only thing the rebranding has done is make Twitter an X-platform (pun intended).
Calling it Twitter is a reminder that the product/site used to be pretty interesting instead of a broken right wing child sex abuse platform
Do what Elon does with his kid. Dead name it to annoy Elon. Also shame on him for dead naming and misgendering his own child.
Twatter?
you wouldn't really be killing 2 birds with 1 stone. You'd be beating a dead bird with the stone, though
Pretty sure it’s “wow, that was S3XY! We’ll leave your account open so you can send me some more”.
Call it ten
Don't you fucking dare besmirch Pearl Jam's debut album like that.
Ooooooh...
Actually, it could turn out pretty well for the dead bird so I won't
Ten gonna give it to ya!
While the media posted by the influencer has been removed, numerous text interactions with the deleted posts from his followers are still on the platform. Some of those posts mention a child depicted in the photos as young as one and a half years old.
To make matters worse, the image appears to have been on the platform for several days before being removed. Lucre even described the image in detail in a separate tweet, noting that it had been taken from a video. The video in question involved the abuse of three children, one of whom was reportedly strangled to death after the filming.
The CSAM material was left up for FOUR DAYS (July 22-26) before he was even suspended. Then they let him "delete" it...and reinstated him. People commented during those 4 days DESCRIBING THE IMAGES.
What the FUCK please tell me this is worth a visit from the FBI, getting removed from the App Store, some massive GDPR violation, fucking something. How is this story not bigger news?
To put this in perspective, 4 graphic CSAM images that an account with 500,000 followers posted were left up on Twitter for 4 days. The person who posted the images was suspended for less than a day.
Content warning: I deliberately avoid providing much more detail than "it was clearly CSAM" but I do mention the overall tweet contents and pretext.
I remember this from when it happened and unfortunately did see the text portion and thumbnail from the original tweet.
He did it under the pretext of reporting on the arrest of a person involved in the video and large-scale CSAM production. It started as a standard news-report-style where they list the name, age and arrest details of someone taken into custody. Initially it looked like the normal alt-right tweet about "look at how paedophilia is rampant and the world is sinful!".
The guy describes himself as "chief trumpster" and a "breaker of narratives" and journalist. He claimed the details of the CSAM were provided by the Dutch police. He then described the title and detailed events of a CSAM video in the tweet. Unfortunately for me, the detailed events were below the tweet fold, so I had no idea it was going there until I expanded it.
The tweet image attachment or link unfurl thumb had a frame from the video itself. It was an otherwise-SFW image the adult abuser who was being talked about. Unfortunately I didn't realise until after I had expanded the tweet text contents what the thumbnail was. I actually thought it was an opengraph error at first.
Even in the context of "reporting shocking content" the tweet was way over the line and went from 0 to 100 in a few words. I did not need the info on the CSAM, nobody except the police and courts does. The video title alone was over the line.
Musk phrasing this as another "I was told" decision is just him knowingly deferring responsibility.
Remember all that nonsense the media was posting about Mastodon being a haven for illegal porn? Almost feels like a smear campaign to defame an up and coming X/Twitter competitor.
Most online platforms are susceptible to hosting CSAM and Mastodon deserves to be scrutinized and investigated for it as much as the rest. The problem with a million decentralized instances is a million different people in charge of detecting and eliminating CSAM from their platforms, and it’s going to be a challenge as this platform grows.
Context?!
QAnon people are posting photos of child sexual assaults “to raise awareness” because they’re too fucking stupid to realize that’s still insanely illegal and you don’t get to rob banks to raise awareness of bank robbers. (Or they’re just pedophiles trying to share images via a loophole that doesn’t exist.)
One prominent conservative guy got flagged by Twitter and had his account suspended. Elon claims only a few employees saw the image but that turned out to be a lie. It was up for 4 days and had something like 8000+ RTs and 1.3 million views. Elon basically intervened and unsuspended the guy’s account.
Also, if you’d like additional context, [insert photo of Musk with Gislaine Maxwell].
I know when pedophiles tried to normalise pedophilia on Twitter by associating themselves with the LGBT community or by coming up with that nomap bullshit. I would assume they are just that. Pedos.
Also, it is widely known that pedos project like motherfuckers. That teenage billionaire sure threw those accusations around a lot.
QAnon people are posting photos of child sexual assaults “to raise awareness”
Say sike right now.
Please.
Or is it because they think they are being clever and think that they can get away with it as long as they are yelling loudly enough about how much it disgusts them.
conteXt?
The Brand X social media site living up to its name.
Reminder: Musk himself has an alt account where he ERPs as a toddler
"Why does nobody want to advertise on my site anymore?"
It's like literally everything he's done is to deliberately tank the company and lose billions of dollars.
Almost like it's on purpose...
At this point they could have but a giant brown bear in charge of twitter. Gave it free reigns to eat whoever it likes and twitter would still be more successful and have a less damaged brand. Like is Elon actively trying to run it into the ground?
I don't think he is. See, he's lived his entire life in a world without consequences, and he's never actually been a good businessman, and certainly never invented anything. But he's built his own little brand around pretending he's both and not a con man who was scamming carbon credits to boost the stock price of his flagship company.
At some point, he started to believe his own branding. After all, he must be a good businessman if he's the richest man in the world, right?
As a note, Bernie Madoff had a net worth of almost $70 Billion at his peak. He was one of the richest men in the world.
Given the other typos, this might just be another, but in case it's an error and you might want to use the phrase some other place where it matters:
It's "give it free rein" like a horse you're letting choose its own path and pace, rather than a monarch who would "reign."
You could let a bear reign over all Musk's properties with better results than he's having, but it would be a different sentence.
Both reign and rein can be nouns or verbs:
The Fed is trying to "rein in" inflation.
The "reign" of King Charles the Turd has barely begun.
(Sorry, my inner schoolmarm slipping out.)
Yes, that's exactly what he's trying to do. The sooner he runs it into the ground, the less money he's going to lose.

I think any smart run company left Twitter the moment Elon took over (in his own eclectic way carrying a kitchen sink).
https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2018/jul/17/tesla-elon-musk-thailand-diver-pedo
Just one, one drop in a sea of lunacy and megalomania. But that’s Elon. Now if this guy took over a company that directly impacted your profits, what would you do?
The real sad thing is that even if he is the Yahoo to Tumblr, it won’t impact him one iota. He’ll still be rich as all creation and people will still fawn over him and listen to what he has to say.
It doesn’t really matter, but wasn’t it a bathroom sink?
It was.
Ehhh I'm reading some very amusing speculation about his finances.
I swear, I thought it was a joke until I actually saw his tweet on the platform
Terrible decision from Elon.
At least he's consistent
Wow, elon. Just... wow!
.... welp Twitter is dead
classic mastodon w
Because Elon musk (as well as everyone in positions of power) are all pedos. Every single one of them. These are the fuckwads that hang out of Epsteins island.
It’s also why nothing is being done about it because everyone that’s in a position to do anything about it is also a pedo and they don’t want to disrupt their pedo experiences.
That’s all the uber wealthy are into. They use their power and influence to get away with it my corrupting everyone around them.
'Pedophiles control the world' sounds just as far-fetched as 'jews control the world'.
Hitler reading your comment while tweaking would probably make some deductions that he'd like to share in his next meth fueled speech.
Do you have the original x link of this post, since I'm having trouble finding it on his account
Stop saying "x link" like that's actually a thing
Whats X? I only know twitter links
Twitters dead, stop using the brand name.
I ain't white, but isn't this community name (not the community) kinda racist
It comes from reddits "black people twitter" "white people twitter" and "bikini bottom twitter", on twitter people call different sub genres of twitter "x people twitter" White people twitter is just kinda bland takes
Now it's all "x people x"... 🤡
Hey, at least you don't have to post a picture of your skin color to post here, like on reddit's BlackPeopleTwitter.
the "CP" was a news article, but well...
edit: ok, I stopped at "but well" but I didn't know it'd get this much hate, my bad. All I wanted to say is that the guy shared a news article about an incident in the Philippines. In his replies, he also posted photos from a video related to the article. I don't like it when I see Twitter screenshots in which the user changes the words to fit their claims. The post was subject to CSAM concerns along with the photos. So, it's not explicitly "CP", but it still violates the platform's rules, and the guy should have remained suspended.
Think for a second. Why would he be specifically mentioning "those photos" if it was a news article?
Think for a second
That's asking a lot
Look at you telling on yourself putting "it" in "air quotes" and all.
