Elon's Folly

Fuck you rocket Kiko hahah

• Brazil asked Elon to ban 7 fascist accounts spreading disinformation
• Elon refused pretending it was a free speech issue even though he complied multiple times with similar requests from right wing govts

Gotta say, this is new information to me. I’ve briefly looked at the stories and the banning of twitter, but I never realized this was entirely because Elon wouldn’t ban accounts as he does for right wing government.

Elon seems like a kinda shitty guy.

But remember kids, he's some sort of business and tech genius!

He wants Twix to be Truth Social, but also profitable, and doesn't understand why he can't have it both ways.

He acts literally like a fucking toddler.

Perhaps even a toddler in a tantrum.

Sounds like another Dan of The Art of the Deal

Twitter is now removing the block function next. It ought to bleed users like crazy.

Why, oh, why, Bluesky and not Mastodon

uuh, new users for the fediverse. looking forward to y'all ;-)

I still prefer to refer to him as “Leon.”

Permanently Deleted

Because he is a bitch.

This is a hint at why he wanted involvement in PayPal and wants X to be a financial service. You can't take away money from a system he controls.

Stay on blue sky guys.

Elon hasn't said a word, but we will.

Fucking emerald spoon clown.

Elon should have received additional fines for his taunts and threats, honestly.

Having an account on X supports this shit whether you like it or not it.

As long as the general public only hears the first half of the story, it's good marketing

Why BlueSky or even Threads tho?

Brazil didn't shut down "X". They did it themselves so X wouldn't have a Brazilian entity subject to Brazilian court orders. That is why Starlink got caught in the mess.

Local press and lots of people in Brazil criticize judges because, due to flaws on local laws and 80's redemocratization efforts, they have some perks, privileges and exceptional powers no democratic country would give to them. There are cases ranging from content showing them traveling overseas being not visible on local internet and TV people being given cease-and-desist orders for disagreeing with some judge decision, to people being detained by Federal Police agents for criticizing justice system inside a plane that happens to have a judge among the passengers - not to mention those FBI agents detained at Rio de Janeiro airport for containing a judge's wife who got unruly in a plane for drinking too much during the fly.

This time however he asked for it, and our justice system toke the right decisions. Elon Musk should know how ridiculously overpowered our judges are before acting like that.

Master gambit, Sir.

I wish I had his problems.

How's this a meme?

First of all, Elon is probably just trying to do some marketing bullshit But Brazilian STF is full of crap also, Alexandre de Moraes is Just censoring people without any judgment or justification, he tried to prohibit the use of vpn and created a "fake news" committee where he get to say what is real or not

Yes we all saw it. Do people really need to get an ELI5?

I'm just curious tbh if there were people that didn't realize all of this?
