The Fall of X
Elon Musk has shown himself to be a liar and a hypocrite.
X was outed yesterday as a non-Free Speech platform.
Honestly… Some of us have been saying this for months now. Others even longer. Getting the word out that X is not a free speech platform has been like getting the word out that the Covid vaxx was bad and people need to steer clear, while being on old Twitter.
The people who hero worshipped Musk wouldn’t hear it. Until now, when he screwed himself by basically telling everyone that he and his flunkies are in total control.
Musk silenced tons of people yesterday, even killing Laura Loomer’s premium account, subscriptions, and ability to be monetized because she went up against him on H1B visas. He then defended a racist X employee who was attacking a person because he is white engineer.
Later he revealed that large accounts can block and mute smaller accounts (those that threaten larger accounts and are coming up) and by doing so, those smaller accounts are marginalized by the algorithm and essentially knocked back down the ladder. Also revealed were the back ally conversations by big accounts to target smaller accounts. Musk says they will be charged with spamming but we now know he’s a straight up liar. He basically gave the big accounts the direction to secure their status and silence anyone that is up and coming.
Point blank… X is a shithole and the evil wizard has been revealed as another tech bro tyrant.
Trump needs to disband and abolish DOGE before it even gets started. Musk holds way too much unelected power right now and he is actively silencing dissent. He’s turned the X algorithm into a mini version of China’s social credit score, using a reputation score where he and his minions get to pick and choose “credible accounts” that will have power.
Remember when the Democrats said they need illegal aliens for cheap labor? Well… The tech bros and Musk are basically saying the same thing with H1B Visas. An American employee gets paid more and can leave if the boss is a dick. An H1B employee gets paid less and can’t leave if the boss is a dick. The tech bros want indentured servants over skilled American labor. And now he has gone one step further than the Democrats because the tech bros are calling US skilled labor “retarded”. The sheer fucking hubris from Musk and the tech bros is off the chart.
Cancel your X Subscriptions. Jump ship if that is your primary platform. Get the hell away from the evil tech bros. Elon Musk has now shown everyone that X doesn’t care about free speech. Nothing but a wolf in sheep’s clothing.
I bought the year subscription when it was 45% off last October. I will NOT renew that subscription when it ends in October 2025. X is nothing but a scam. You don’t have reach at all. Articles have even less reach than posts. Grok is now free to everyone. Real endeavors such as writing, music, and art are not valued there at all and get no reach at all. I’ve said it before, it won’t just be the left that jumps ship from X because the algorithm has basically marginalized every small to medium account all while Musk fraudulently sells subscriptions claiming you will get reach. The curtain has been pulled back and Elon Musk has now been shown to the world as nothing but a tech bros liar.

Twitter, or heX as I call it, is a digital caste system.
Regarding Elon’s engineering capability, he sits on the shoulders of technically capable people. He made his money from our tax dollars which lead to his stock wealth. Engineers at Tesla remarked that they were uncertain how to handle the large steel coils in their production environments, it was a challenge they needed to solve. Well the retarded Big 3 and other auto manufacturers have know that “secret” for decades.
We want a Tony Stark, Elon has been made into a Tony Stark. Yeah, snatching a rocket landing in air is a really cool achievement, but when the leader of Free Speech fumbles with basic concepts you have to ask questions. When the world’s smartest man has fallen for the CO2 nonsense, when it’s less than 1% of the atmosphere, demonstrates how little he understands of science, but how much he understands manipulation.
Jan 2024 he released a video about the need for a carbon tax, sounded exactly like John Kerry. MAGA ignored that. In fact, many hadn’t seen that on his timeline. Talking to people about it on Spaces, you got peeping critics.
Yes, he was pivotal to Trump winning, but will Trump keep his agenda if you have such an ego maniac on the inside?
Twitter and X always felt like a digital psych ward to me and I could never get into it. It’s basically a pecking order of shit posters and who can get the most retweeted “zinger” of a safe, low hanging fruit “edgy” partisan talking point. I feel dumber after I look at it.
I appreciate this article & there’s something I wish people would understand about all of these so-called leaders but especially Elon Musk:
First off he is a fraud and didn’t actually invent anything. Second, he was on the roster of the world economic forum’s Young global leaders beginning in 2008. Third, he has spoken publicly about putting chips into people’s brains and has mentioned doing it for the purpose of both extracting and implanting data (thoughts) and has been doing this for nearly a decade.
The other thing is, the CEO of X, Linda Yaccarino, was quoted in 2023 saying “freedom of speech does not equal freedom of reach”.
As soon as any platform partners with big money it is no longer a free speech platform. No tech is immune from exploitation, it was designed for it.
I think Substacks days are numbered as well (given their recent partnership announcement). We have to start using the tools of technology as tools to organize and meet in real life while we still have the ability. I’ll message you about this bc this comment is too long lol
