@elonmusk@twitter.com Notably, this response came in reply to an account promoting a right-wing news site.
Opinions from the right are the only ones he values.
Coming up on the show from 3-6p eastern today… Congresswoman Zoe Lofgren and Congressman Joaquin Castro plus suspended twitter journalists @donieosullivan and @w7voa as well as @mollyjongfast SE Cupp, Jefferson Morley, Mike Isaac, Bill Weir, Chloe Melas, and Brad Hendrickson - American helping civilians in Ukraine. See you soon!
Every news outlet should stand up a Mastondon instance for their reporters & staff.
It’ll be great to see GivennameFamilyname@mastodon.famousnewspaper.com or whatever domain they want to use.
Built in verification. Every reporter for the Washington Post on a washpo domain. Every reporter for the New York Times on an NYTimes domain. Etc, etc.
Plus the “local” feed for each instance becomes a feed of all the posts from that institution mixed together — providing extra discovery.
If you're trying to find journalists on Mastodon, I've created a verified database of several hundred here: http://presscheck.org. Since the backlog has become enormous, the unverified waiting list is now public also: http://presscheck.org/pending
another interesting idea is to deactivate/reactivate your account a lot. That's a heavyweight operation because it has to archive and unarchive the graph edges, and graph operations are complicated and often have high constant factors.
This is wild. This is just a short list of prominent journalists suspended from Twitter for the “crime” of being critical of Mu$k. They didn’t promote violence, misinformation, or any form of hate. They simply were critical of his policies. And for their simple criticism—they got suspended.
This is your so-called free speech champion who will save humanity. 🙄
Stop trusting billionaires. Start taxing them.
