    It’s not about being praxis; it’s about the quality of content.

    And it’s also about not spending all your time finding every last person who said something that sucks. It’s not healthy to do that shit.

      Okay, well, that’s what it sounds like when the posts have to be about someone “near the levers of power.” If it is not about that and is instead about the quality of the posts, I ask once again the question. Why is a picture of an Elon Musk tweet inherently a higher quality post than a picture of a tweet by someone with fewer followers?

      • because its fucking elon musk, a person people know and have an effect on real world policies and a vast amount of people

        vs an actual nobody

        you need to stop, you’re reaching into the nonsensical in order to argue at this point

          because its fucking elon musk

          This is literally not an explanation, you’re just repeating the assertion I questioned. I could make just as valid an argument the other way around. Posts of Elon Musk tweets are inherently low quality. Why? Because it’s fucking Elon Musk. Also I have an even stronger argument, it’s because I can go see Elon Musk tweets any time I want by typing www.twitter.com into my address bar. It is higher effort and higher quality to post things that I would not otherwise have found
