The nonprofit Center for Countering Digital Hate said Musk’s debunked claims are spreading widely and don't appear to be subject to X’s Community Notes fact-checking system.

    My thoughts on this:

    Twitter, under Elongated Muskrat, does not have as much of a reach as it used to. Due to this, most of these numbers are probably due to troll farms from Russia, China, North Korea, and any other country who has an interest in destabilizing the US. While we should be wary of these numbers, we should also remember that this idiot has probably come up with a way to conflate these numbers. I don’t understand why people are looking at this like Twitter is still Twitter, and not X. Twitter is dead, guys. The brand has been tarnished. The power is no longer there. He can make every single one of his posts look like it has a billion views, a trillion likes. It’s not real. Twitter has no power. X has no power, except for those dorks who give Elongated Muskrat money to get a little emoji next to their names.

    The people who still work at twitter could do something about this. It’s not like Musk knows how to program a website more complicated than like <html><body><p>hello</p</body></html>

    Maybe they could like shadowban Musk and just have bots interact with him so he thinks he’s making waves and being liked.

    Yup until someone takes care of that little man-child, he’ll continue to do as much damage as he can. Just like trump and those following him. Lie about everything. Literally everything they say or bring up is either completely stupid or a straight up lie.

    They’ll just continue to damage America without any consequences at all. At what point will they be forced to stop their bullshit or will they just be allowed to continue their path of destruction until the very end?

    So when do we finally label this manbaby as a “Threat to National Security” and executive order him to be fired into the sun on one of his own rockets?

    edit: forgot to include the word manbaby

    I read the article but it doesn’t mention how they are counting a “view”. Obviously most people on Twitter see his posts but there are so many bots on Twitter at this point, how many of those views were just that?
