He already said people would be coming at him. Surprising that in all the stuff he's ever done and all the things he's been involved in, RIGHT NOW is when something is really really important.

How DARE we be concerned about what our kids are learning, how dare we insist they learn their basics and learn them well so they can actually do things for themselves in their adult lives, how very dare we be adamant that we be involved in any of the decision making with regards to our children's education. I was screwed over bad enough by "no child left behind", to the point that I'm almost outright saying that I was being kept intentionally dumb and uneducated until my adult years. More and more, homeschooling is just looking more appealing with regards to my kids. At least then I know what they're learning and can keep them on the fundamentals that'll actually help them in their lives.

I've been hearing that legacy media has been dying for a bit now, when will it just die and we can level this playing field again.

I'm glad you listened to your audience and heard the concerns and made decisions accordingly. I also appreciate that you weren't just jumping on a trend, that you did your homework and only moved on something you believed in and didn't intend to scam for fast, cheap gains. You can participate in something without drinking the koolaid being pushed by the bad actors.

People in those states have to tell their reps. If those guys aren't focusing on the issues they are about, then what are they in office for?

@noelienoelie8425 I'd say that, if my mother wasn't still watching it all the time and getting most of her info from it. Clearly there's still some kind of an audience, and it's likely people that haven't tossed out their Cable subscriptions yet.

Depending on the context, it could mean any of the following: From my perspective From my point of view The way I see it In my opinion My assessment My share (of the pie) My take (on a movie set) What I infer My net pay

It'll be hard for them to implement a draft considering the nation wide revolt they'd be dealing with if they even tried.

@beauregardrippey5508 None of us have a thing to show for it. Textbooks that were out of date, back problems because lockers were allowed, getting passed along when we didn't leanr anything... why would I support a system like that? Where's all the money going?

There was no way this was gonna conclude how anyone wanted it to. If she was assassinated, then no real justice would have been served. If she was sentenced, she'd get a slap on the wrist (as she has). And in neither of those cases would any names be named. The people have a right to know who they are, there is no justice is allowing them anonymity, there is only protection for them.

There is potential for other platforms to do this, but it'll be a situation like WoW and Final Fantasy. One finally overtook the other, not because it was necessarily "better", but because the more established MMO had "updated" itself into a worse experience over all, with crappy mechanics, terribly plots and a company that was rapidly losing favor with its fanbase. YouTube is sort of in that same situation. The thing is, a switch like this takes time, and it'll also require some of the more popular content creators making the switch over as well. YouTube really caters to the latter there, so it'll likely be a WHILE before we see any major shift here.

It's a shame that this won't be a trend for like YouTube and Facebook.

@wai828 Here's the thing, the reason he knows, is because it wasn't a big deal until suddenly now everything is gonna be a big deal when he's bothering the people whose only effective tactic is to discredit their opposition's character when they can't beat them any other way Elon has outplayed them all, he's put them in position that even if he were to lose out on the deal, they'll still be in ruins, the dirty laundry of theirs is already out. Trying to drag out his now is a last, desperate and doomed to fail effort. It's the last bit of kicking and screaming the tantrum throwing toddler that is Twitter and its backers can now muster up. And just like Trump, he's ultimately gonna be able to walk away from it all while the only people whose time and money is wasted is ours.

@spaceboi231 And if there's a case to be made, what should public opinion matter? You act like the only thing that matters is the crowd, you do realize there's an entire justice system that has a job to do here right? So if there's a case, let's see how it goes. My prediction... nowhere.
1
@spaceboi231 I mean let's really think about this. Where was all of this when everyone was buying his cars? Where was this when he started a space program to get everyone to Mars? Where was all of this when he was handed millions of dollars to build a vacuum tube for a train? But no, RIGHT NOW while he's ruffling certain feathers, suddenly there's a big accusation against him? Right now he's suddenly run out of power, influence and money to not be able to "suppress" this? It's not hard to work out what's going on here. A big slander piece from the people he's been outplaying for months now. People that cannot take him in his own arena and stand no chance of stopping him. And he's getting ahead of letting them turn the mob of public opinion against him. Outplayed again.

@aimokoivunen7046 ... What? I think I'm missing a reference here.

@wai828 Which is why I say, we let the court decide if this highly coincidental timing is merely coincidence or if any of the accusations of a leg to stand on. It just seems undeniably fishy to me. That right now of all the times any of these accusations could have come forward RIGHT NOW is the time they do. They line up perfectly with him bothering a particular batch of people that really like to making baseless sexual assault charges on people they don't like. It's been a very easy pattern to follow over the past couple of years now. So let's wait and see where this even goes.
1
@LW13rc IF... big IF. And it just undeniably fishy that right now, of all the times this ever could have come up, RIGHT NOW is the time it's coming up. The at this time the fact that he's bothering a particular group of people that love to make baseless accusations of sexual harassment, suddenly he's getting accused of it. I mean when did this supposedly happen?
1
@LW13rc Paid her off... sounds like a business exchange at that point. What am I supposed to think of that? Doesn't that tarnish the idea that she's an innocent victim if she accepted money for it? How much? What was her dignity and silence worth? Was she even paid afterwards or was before it all happened? I can't imagine any girl I know that would have taken his money if he'd done something wrong like that, even if they could have really used it. I know gals who were victims of stuff like this, they didn't keep quiet or accept bribes.

@LW13rc A lot of wealthy people settle out of court. See Michael Jackson the first time H had allegations thrown at him. The second time, he didn't stand for it, went to trial and won. I'd be really really surprised that if Elon Musk, a man that is incredibly business savvy and potentially the richest person in the world, paid this woman and there was no non-disclosure agreement in place. So it'll be interesting to see how the court case actually goes, if it even gets that far in the first place.

@Tangarisu Not sure it's gonna go quite that far. I mean if it escalated like that, there would be no denying that something the hell was up XD

@wai828 I'm not sure how it can be a "conspiracy theorist game" when you outright say at the start "it's not a coincidence". Right, it's not a coincidence, it's coming out now because right now it's the most important time to try and turn people on Elon when he's become so popular with the general public, beyond just his hybrid cars and aspirations of space travel. He's saying things that people relate to and feel strongly about and he's pointing out the major issues with not just Twitter, but social media at large. And rather than just being someone TRYING to tell everyone like people have been doing for years now, he's actually being heard and paid attention to. He's winning, so they have to start playing dirty to try and weaken him. I don't think this tactic is gonna work either.
1
@wai828 I didn't deny that, nor was I referring to his response being the coincidence, I'm not sure how you're interpreting what I'M saying, but I've understood you this whole time and have been trying to explain that the coincidence isn't Elon saying anything. It's the very thing he's replying to coming up NOW that seemed like an awful big coincidence for not having a very clear motive behind it, and I'm not talking about the pursuit of justice for a wrongdoing. “Also I'm curious to know what makes you think Elon is winning.” Winning what specifically? Public opinion? People have hated what Twitter is and watching him not only back them into a corner by outplaying them with his business savvy, essentially setting them up to either take his deal and give him the reins or collapse from having to pay him and their share holders a massive stack in the millions of dollars for not going through with it. Twitter had no choice, but to accept, they couldn't afford it otherwise, especially with their utterly abysmal stats right now in the stock market. The people that have invested in them are getting constantly disappointing returns and right now they're in hot water for continually fluffing up their numbers in order to get advertisers. THAT could land them in some serious trouble. So you tell me, what exactly you mean and I'll try to explain why I think he's doing fine. “Personally I don't think getting so political is a winning strategy, especially when it comes to supporting a party as controversial as republicans.” Which explains why you're confused, because he isn't getting political nor is he siding democrat or republican. He specifically indicated that he's leveling the playing field and intends to allow anyone regardless of their affiliations speak on the platform and that he'll be enforcing the TOS fairly. If those are “republican” values, that's news to me. Like me, he doesn't seem loyal to either side, he just wants Twitter to be just as neutral and treated as a public square and not an echo chamber, especially with the kind of influence it clearly has. Which seems to be getting more and more true the people resist his acquisition of it, to the point of digging up any dirt they can to try and discredit him to the general public as a last desperate effort to turn people against him. But the damage is done and Twitter probably is too, even if he doesn't follow through with the deal at this point. “In my opinion he just fucked up and is trying to damage control.” Well, I'm glad you have your opinion. What was your opinion on Trump every time he got drug into the court room any number of the times he did? I remember people claiming there was a smoking gun and he was going straight to jail. Lots of wasted time (and tax payer dollars) later, he's still here and might even run for re-election when the time rolls around. So I'm wondering, how fucked do you really think the richest guy in the world is?

@handsomebarber424 We've known Universities were for a while. I had some hope that maybe public schools just couldn't risk it seeing as how they don't have all the financial advantages and the fact that their students aren't generally being as heavily monitored by their parents since they're mostly adults by that point. I guess I'm just disappointed to see the direction modern education has gone and how much worse it looks than even when I was in school during the 90's.

Elect an old man, get an old man reaction. In all honesty, our current president should be at home, being taken care of. I don't like that they push him out there and expect anyone to really rally behind him. He doesn't exhibit the strength, discipline and soundness of mind that we would want representing us and managing our policies.
