I do recall an interview with Brent Spiner where he said something to that effect. I figured he (William Shatner) wrote some of them. I forgot about that.
Comment on It's sad that people completely misunderstand what Star Trek is about.

I really dislike Takei’s one (Jay Kuo) because of how shamelessly he uses it to promote his own substack sometimes… and because of a specific substack post of his where he said “oh no it’s so bad Arizona got abortion banned… but there’s a silver lining, maybe they’ll learn to vote blue the next time” or some shit like that.
+3M people losing their body autonomy and the first thing you think is “hey this can be a good thing for our campaign”?? fucking ghoul…

It’s possible on a regular basis.
However, as with other high profile accounts, one expects that messages that are high profile would be cleared with the person under whose name the official account is made.

Not at all. Chapelle told that joke about hearing that “his” “official” Twitter account was having beef with Kat Williams’ “official” account. During one show when both of them were in the audience, he went over to Kat and told him the situation - to which Kat replied, “wtf is Twitter?”
