Twitter under Musk....

[winjim]

Maybe try a safe search first ??

Or don't - live dangerously ...

There's nothing safe about it.

I don't want to make too much light of it TBH, it involves big, important issues. But the whole thing is utterly bonkers and just keeps getting more so.

Didn't find much. Is it the Guardian article?

I'd avoid if I were you , if 'see below' is anything to go by..

Oh Jesus, where to begin? It all blew up with the vulva plastercast artwork which was I think featured in the Guardian.

I will warn you that the subject matter is such that it will be nigh on impossible to have a sensible conversation about it on here, but the more you look into it, the weirder it gets. Weird, but also rather sad really.

Her twitter handle is MediClit but good luck filtering out the noise.

Content warning for... pretty much anything you can think of really.

Not t'internet at its best I take it..😱

I think I'll stick to my seed sowing 🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱

I do sometimes have conversations with my wife, yes. We live in the same house, it would be awkward if we didn't.

It'll never catch on in Compton.

Not if the subject is Twitter it won't.

You lot fill yer boots if it enhances your lives.

I found it I think. Or at least an interesting discussion about how Doctors (US ones particularly) are making out that ladyparts are weird and need surgery, whilst men are presumably of quite a different point of view, as porn stars tend to have the sorts of lady parts that doctors think are ugly, whilst simultaneously managing to blame porn for women wanting surgery on their ladyparts.

That's definitely involved, although not really the main event. It's part of what's led her to think the way she does.

God this is complicated.

Origin story. There's an origin story.

Doctors .

Or anyone else, seeking to profit in some way from making women feel bad about how any part of them looks..

Whilst simultaneously finding a way to blame the women themselves for it .

Whodduv thunk it?? 🤔

I think it gets a bit more complicated when your father happens to be a plastic surgeon.

I'd imagine that would mess with your mind (and body image) good and proper ... 🙄

The Twitter being a popular beat combo, I take it?

NPR does not like the Trump like lies coming from grudge city.

The Musk landscape is looking much like that of a Murdoch type empire.
I would think the BBC has lost credibility by sucking up to Musk the mogul.

Further spotlights twitter as being polarised.

I don't think sucking up is remotely accurate. They have covered his escapades at great length this last year, and much of it has been far from complimentary.
(Also, fighting to correct "government-funded" in their profile makes a strong statement.)

 

[albion]

NPR were certainly not sucking up.
