It is extraordinarily, spectacularly funny that Jack Dorsey literally called us “common,” as if he’s the Third Lord Viscount Fartleby sneering at the help while cheating at a game of croquet
"That Bluesky's full of Morlocks, Imma gonna get me an Eloi platform."
back into the sensory deprivation tank, Jeeves!
Did he perhaps mean 'in common' ie similar or overlapping the twitter audience? Or is he just a bit up himself?
Dorsey apparently wanted all the legacy bluecheck celebrities and journalists to come over here and for the rest of the rabble to just like and retweet them, and that favoritism was why twitter sucked pre-Elon.
I thought the biggest mistake Twitter made as a company was tossing out a moderation and ad team that got them clickthrough rates as high as 100x times industry average (and the ad rates to match!) at the behest of a guy named after the contents of a litter box
Before you know if the plebes be asking for hygiene … like racism and White Supremacy are merely social constructs that can be ameliorated by deplatforming I mean … who are these “users” to define and enforce the boundaries of what is and is not politically, socially and culturally acceptable
Wait. Is THAT what he meant? Like. He was calling us COMMONERS?!?!
jack, sitting up in bed, startled awake by a vision of the future: a "social" media app, BUT HIGH SOCIETY!!
"Silence, Faine!" roared Jack, turning to his friend. "Who is this insolent wretch, Lord Musk?" "Looking into it," mumbled Elon, hidden behind towering stacks of POs and service orders from Tesla dealerships.
I hope the door not only hit him, but *propelled* him on the way out.
