It's "Twitter Freedom Friday!"

[schism666]

But you’re not obsessed.

i'm sure that you find all 6 of my posts in this thread "obsessive." you're the squeaky wheel who never gets the grease which just makes you another unsatisfied karen.

Back in the real world, on the issue of advertisers:

Elon Musk personally called CEOs of companies that stopped advertising on Twitter to complain, report says​

https://www.businessinsider.com/mus...-to-complain-ad-spending-twitter-2022-11?op=1

Musk's calls backfired and other brands joined the growing list of companies to withdraw spending.

Genius billionaire move, right there.

My own feeling on Musk's Twitter takeover is, he had an opportunity for reform and improvement, and blew it in dramatic fashion. Months ago he spoke about things like making Twitter algorithms transparent to users, and new features like post editing. As a Twitter user, I'd have been very receptive to these changes. I'm still receptive to opening the verification process, done properly. But with Twitter's future so uncertain, my involvement in the platform has essentially evaporated.

Americans yelling insults at each other to defend their right to yell insults at each other.

Polite (/Correct) Speech, so it goes, has no need to be protected...

Not just Americans. Twitter draws insult yellers from all over the world.

You are wrong.

Only 13% of Canadians use Twitter.

And Canadians on Twitter are more Positive....

you just proved his point.

 

[schism666]

Wrong again.

Take a breath next time; your obsession is showing, deadluk.

no, i'm correct as usual.

quit obsessing over deadluk. it's very unmanly and your current crush might get upset.

As if deadluk getting upset would bother anyone...

derp.

How did you fail to notice you fucked up? Bigly. Again.

 

[ll74]

And yet Elon is using an iPhone to tweet.

nice try, barrister but that flimsy hearsay has been tossed out of my court.

Lucky you, you're deadluk today.

Canada’s 13% are part of the “all around the world” category, eh?

 

[BabyBoomer50s]

"Twitter draws insult yellers from all over the world."

Canadians aren't "insult yellers" on Twitter.

See the NPR article. Or remain dim like the deadluks. Your choice.

Lol. Canadian researcher finds that fellow Canadians are not as mean on Twitter. Guess I touched a nerve. I should have known better as my research finds that Canadians on Lit are very sensitive. But I do acknowledge that our little brothers and sisters to the north are super nice and sweet.

 

[BabyBoomer50s]

I realize it was difficult for you to admit you were wrong.

Quality people have no trouble admitting to their mistakes, btw.

No Canadians yell on Twitter.

 

[BabyBoomer50s]

True. Social Media's more an angry American thing.

Proud to see Canadians adopting American culture on social media. They’re still yelling at each other on Twitter over Covid vaccinations! Also saying some really, really mean stuff about their prime minister.

The numbers still say you're wrong. You'll get over it once you find something else to wind you up.

One of the more ignorant posts from him.

Federal government to pause advertising on Twitter indefinitely​

The federal government spent over $3 million on Twitter ads through its media and marketing partner Cosette from 2020 to 2021​

In Canada, Twitter has been used primarily as a "press release" service and a convenient way for politicians to make "statements" without facing questions from a broad audience.

In fact, fewer than 13% of Canadians use Twitter at all, and most of them are government employees, members of the media and people with anti-government messages...it's a very thin slice of Canadian life, basically irrelevant.
