White Dudes for Harris Founders Blame Elon Musk for X Account’s Suspension
White Dudes for Harris Founders Blame Elon Musk for X Account’s Suspension
The account was unable to advocate for donations the day after a major event featuring politicians and celebrities brought in nearly $200,000 for Kamala Harris' presidential bid.
Never thought I’d see the day where he censored a bunch of white dudes but here we are.
He is not a free speech absolutist that’s for sure
He's all about free speech he absolutely agrees with.
Of course not, he is after all a republikkklown
Just African-Canadian things
Haha underrated comment
They should join Mastodon to get away from Elon’s narcissism.
Mastodon lacks full-text search, which kills the main reason that Twitter appealed to me, the real-time-updated full-text index.
Mastodon added text search a while ago.
Elon Musk doesn't have NPD. And accusing people of being disabled is not an epic burn. It's only an insult if you think disabled people are worth less than neurotypicals. Sensible people don't hate the disabled, so calling him a n*rcissist isn't an insult.
Calling him neurotypical is a bigger insult. Because it implies that all of his weirdness is a choice.
in case it was unclear: accusing someone of narcissism as a personality trait isn't the same as accusing them of a PD.
narcissism /när′sĭ-sĭz″əm/ noun
-
Excessive preoccupation with or admiration of oneself. synonym: conceit. Similar: conceit
-
A personality disorder characterized by self-preoccupation, need for admiration, lack of empathy, and unconscious deficits in self-esteem.
They said 'his narcissism' They made no diagnostic qualification.
Ie. Displaying narcissism and being a narcissist and having a narcissistic personality disorder are all different things with different definitions which can be applied in different ways.

You're allowed to say narcissist lol
Can we please keep calling it Twitter, just to piss off Elon?
this would be awesome for c/enoughmuskspam
I will forever victim-blame these folks.
They are an advocacy group, they go where their audience is. Of you are looking for white dudes what's the point of looking for them in the fediverse, where 98% of them already agree with you?
Eh, if they were doing it on Mastodon nobody would see their campaigning. And of that tiny amount that do see them, they'd mostly be preaching to the choir.
For an average user you have a point, though.
As people have pointed out, they're an advocacy group, and trying to reach less aware people. The fact that Elon banned em shows it was most likely working.
The ban lasted 2 hours and 45 minutes. Id guess it was triggered by so many people suddenly joining the account. Musk ain't great but the hyper sensitivity around him is getting weird.
What a coincidence, a strong liberal fundraising account getting banned just as Musk promises to donate $45mil/month to the Trump campaign and complains about the "woke mind virus." I'm sure you can point to similar conservative accounts getting banned and staying banned for several hours right?
The ban lasted 2 hours and 45 minutes.
You mean during the time that they were holding their fundraising event?
Except that no reason for the ban was given. If the ban was due to a sudden uptick in followers, why wasn't that reason sent along with the ban? And then there is the timing which coincided with the fundraiser. All of this on top of Musk publicly declaring his endorsement of Trump and the promise of finding his campaign. Too many "coincidences" are a clear indication of intent.
