Remember when he polled Twitter about whether or not he should stop being CEO and the majority said yes and he ignored it anyway?
Now suddenly polls on Twitter matter?
You mean he polled a number out of his ass. He doesn’t need to go through the effort of asking anyone to get an actionable result. The results from bots and racists would have been similar anyway.
You mean bots, right? Polling bots. Also this doesn’t account for all the people that have blocked you or don’t even use twitter anymore. It’s like if my friends all told me they didn’t like Chinese food and my conclusion is that nobody likes Chinese food.
“If you are not part of my website your vote does not count ha ha ha”
Not even a joke though. That is inevitable.
It doesn’t get much more Musk than, "I polled the racists and they said racism is okay, so racism is okay "
polled? more like he entered some numbers for the vote counts in backend
You don’t need to do that with the Twitter user base that’s left.
See, I’d agree but this is Musk we’re talking about. I wouldn’t be surprised if this douche sent some poor, naive and overeager but overworked intern on a groundbreaking task to gain his admiration and trust by fudging some numbers with fake accounts. So while you think nobody needs to do that, that’s it’s terribly inefficient and only a psychopath drunk on power would pull such a thing, what you need to keep in mind is that this billionaire needs his ego stroked on every turn by some fresh young impressionable men, as he does.
I don’t know Musk personally but I believe this because there was once some poor, ground-feeding soul who went through this entire process to please his master and Tweeted about his weeks-long process adding some insignificant feature to the site as if it were groundbreaking work back when the site was still named Twitter and none of the replaced employees knew how any of that shit worked. The dude was nothing but raving and hyping himself up and down the feed kissing ass. I also believe this because one of his former team members blew the whistle on his Substack(?) on the unethical and probably illegal shit they were doing with bot accounts during the elections.
(I can try to find the blog post if you want to read it but trust me bro on the other guy.)
So he polled a bunch of bots and racist mother fuckers to see what to do with the racist mother fucker?
Not event that. Why would he do that the hard way?
He just published a result that shows people agree and that’s it
I hope the masses let that little racist fucker know how they feel about him ad nauseum. Harass the Nazis.
I’m almost foaming at the mouth. Why all this theater? Martian trash!
Geeze… so step 1. turn twitter into a racist cespit that only racists can stomac it. Step 2… use it as the platform for direct democracy…
Well to be fair, and I do not personally believe this is the right thing, no one said democracy needed to be inclusive. In fact for most of history democracy has been the opposite. So it checks out.
no one said democracy needed to be inclusive
I say that.
Is there a form of government that is inclusive? Seems to me that the practice of working to ensure that underserved demographics are represented runs counter to the thinking of the average power hungry dickhead who gravitates toward politics
The whole point is for it to be inclusive. Yes it has never fully lived up to that potential but the people fighting and clawing for the last few hundred years have brought it closer and closer with time.
They were racist remarks. Not inappropriate remarks.
Exactly.
According to NPR :
https://www.npr.org/2025/02/06/nx-s1-5289337/elon-musk-doge-treasury
“You could not pay me to marry outside of my ethnicity,” the account wrote in September. “Normalize Indian hate,” a separate post from that month read.
In July of last year, the account posted: “Just for the record, I was racist before it was cool.”
In other posts, from December, the account pushed for repealing the Civil Rights Act and shared: “I just want a eugenic immigration policy, is that too much to ask.”
And these posts were made like five months ago.
Self-labeled no less!
I polled myself. I say Musk is a Nazi who should be tossed in front of the nearest self-driving Tesla.
This is the guy who has full unfettered admin access to Treasury Department, in case you were wondering.
I’m honestly not sure why Elon is going through this theater. The guy almost certainly didn’t lose that access when he “resigned.”
somebody needs to SHOOT… this guy up with heroin so he’ll just relax
Bullets would give better results.
I don’t know man, I’m just talkin’ bout shootin’ musk up with heroin
“Haha, it’s all right out in the open, look at how terrible I can be and no one can do anything about it.”
“Welcome to your new government, please use Twitter to vote for the foreseeable future”
