I think Elon saved America's discourse

So says Wikipedia.

And?

Wikipedia and its 406 footnotes detailing the acquisition of Twitter.

I'm pretty cynical about what any rich person does, no matter who they are or what their political affiliation is.

I must have missed your cynical posts about Reid Hoffman, Mark Warner, Jared Polis, Henry Laufer, Michael Bloomberg, George Soros, Dustin Moskovitz, Tom Steyer, JB Pritzker, Nancy Pelosi, Daniel Goldman, Suzan DelBene, Don Beyer, just to name a few.

Hey, if you are upset with having to put up with people posting stuff you disagree with and find annoying, and you are a Progressive Leftist / Democrat, you can always go to one of their echo chambers like Bluesky or Democrat Underground where they censor and ban anyone that deviates from the approved narrative in the slightest.

I think she infests Occupy Democrats or some such echo chamber.

Were there threads about these people and how they acquired their money?

It seems to me that Soros does what Musk does, supports liberal candidates while Musk supports conservative ones.

Hilarious. I'm here to counter all the propaganda coming from conservative echo chambers by magas and RWNJs... the same thing you're doing for your side.

I'm sure there were. Look into it.

So much for bipartisan cynicism, then?

You brought it up, you look into it.

Is that so? How many conversions have you achieved in all these years, Saint Kitten? Changed any hearts and minds? No?

Admit it. You're here to feud with folks who "wear the wrong jersey", as @Damocles puts it.

BTW, I don't have a side, as you know better than most.

 

[Diogenes]

You look into it.

I have. Do a site search with Soros as the keyword.

But Y O U just made this claim:

Well?

1. Probably none. I can think of something I changed my mind on, though.
2. As we all are. I find it healthy to vent here since we can't actively change what's going on in government.
3. I know but I still think of you as more conservative than liberal.

Well what? I may be cynical about how Soros uses his money but don't agree that he's the monstrous bogeyman that RWs make him out to be.

 

[Diogenes]

1. Probably none.

Heh.

I can think of something I changed my mind on, though.

Do, tell.

I find it healthy to vent here since we can't actively change what's going on in government.

Maybe Y O U can't.

I know but I still think of you as more conservative than liberal.

Sigh.

You have a rather reserved way of expressing this alleged cynicism, I must say.

 

[christiefan915]

Heh.

Maybe Y O U can't.



Sigh.

I'll give you a freebie. It's embarrassing to admit that at one time I considered Julian Assange to be a victim.

That's not an argument. Wasn't he?
