The base eats this up. DeSantis and others hope the base is looking for Trump Lite, for Trump With Polish, for Trump With a Smile, for Trump with a Pedigree.

No—the base wants THIS. And the GOP can’t suddenly condemn this now because they long ago weakly chose to accept it. https://t.co/6fKu1tCrcZ

Candace Owens just finished retweeting Max Blumenthal and now she's debuting as a water-carrying hypewoman for Kyrie. I mean, hats off. I didn't think she could reach any lower. But her hospitality toward antisemitism takes her to a whole new level of odiousness. pic.twitter.com/TBY280fisP

Of Course Democracy Is on the Ballot by Jonathan Chait
Democrats are warning that “democracy is on the ballot.” This doesn’t mean democracy will simply end if Republican win power, but democracy will become more threatened by a party that does not respect liberal norms or Democratic election victories.

What I'm hearing from inside Twitter:

Several people who were let go on Friday, then asked to come back were given less than an hour as a deadline.

Software engineers who got this call I know of all said "no" and the only ones who could eventually say "yes" are on visas.

Elon is just using the same playbook as nearly every authoritarian for the past century
1. Complain about the elites and promise illusory freedoms
2. Sweep into power on the backs of know-nothings and proclaim a new era of freedom
3. Do everything you complained about previously

Really, the mass impersonation of Musk by verified accounts was a magnificent satirical art project that achieved its purpose: demonstrating Musk's hypocrisy, the impossibility of speech absolutism, *and* the utter foolishness of the Twitter Blue revamp.

And people were worried that Elon Musk would secretly use twitter to help Republicans, here he is just doing it publicly, I hope everyone feels silly about being concerned.

I’ve been on Mastodon and/or using webmention and micropub for a while now and I’ll be the first to admit that there’s definitely room for improvement for all of these especially when it comes to onboarding. But, watching people on Twitter lose their Goddamn minds because people are trying out Mastodon is never going to get old.

He's tanking the site, he's drowning in debt, he's a huge fucking baby, and he reads his mentions.

After Mark Zuckerberg donated a bunch of money to local governments, red and blue, to ensure they could run elections during a pandemic, it was treated as a national scandal. The pushback was so great that red states actually passed laws to prevent it from happening again. pic.twitter.com/UjvbT2kM6d

feels like this stuff is a useful brown m&m indicator for advertisers. do you have faith that the guy posting about nazi pigeons and making masturbation jokes will work towards creating a low-risk place for you to advertise in?

no? shocking. https://t.co/Ju7dHLzjsX
