  As if they’re not openly making plans to do precisely that to to visibly queer people.

  Who is “they”?

    The far right, of which Musk is a member.

      What does it mean to be right wing to you?

      • lolcatnip@reddthat.com ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

        The usual thing it means to people who follow politics. I’m not gonna explain basic vocabulary to you.

        Far right isn’t the same as right wing. Right wing could be a liberal. Far right is where you start sorting people by their “worth” and such.

  This is a thread about Twitter blue check marks.

    It’s a thread about a far-right asshole going after unions with whatever he has at this disposal.

  That’s a pretty bold allegation. Any proof or are you just slippery sloping the shit out of a blue check mark?

    How about the history of the state of Florida over the last five years

      We aren’t talking about Florida. This is about X.

        this was answered already, but since you don’t seem to get it the first 5 times, “they” refers to far right actors, such as Musk.

    Read about Project 2025. The far is right is announcing its intentions to anyone who will listen.

      Wait, we jumped from X removing a blue check mark to the far right spouting nonsense? That’s a huge leap

        Have you heard the things Elon says, or seen the people he signal boosts, or heard of the people and groups he associates with? It’s about as big of a leap as me getting out of bed in the morning, specifically back when I lived in a treehouse and slept on the floor.

        it’s not really a huge leap. Musk is literally part of the group, trying to pull it off.
