If you think Twitter is anywhere near close to being as important as civil rights you need to put the phone down and be with your family for a while.
I didn't suggest any such thing.
Lol right. Because we all know 'whites only' businesses appear everywhere all the time.
What exactly was your analogy supposed to say?
Do you even understand what whites only businesses represented?

Then why mention whites only business as if that has any place in a discussion about social media websites? Lol
If you're going to make weak personal attacks, I can just block you and be done with it.
I think arguing that massive websites can do whatever they want and no one should ever complain is pretty moronic.
You can complain, but that doesn't make it news worthy. People feel entitled to demand things of a free service. Now if you paid for it, you'd be on to something.
And yet, it means jack all since you have 0 control over it. You can cry foul all you want, but the only thing that matters is whether or not you leave. Their power, and ability to abuse it, stems solely from that. Having a discussion of ethics when Musk is involved... Just go yell at a wall.
This is a blazingly hot take but you are entirely correct, and people need to hear it. People will scream "FUCK SPEZ" while logging in to 400 different reddit tabs daily and continuing to feed a corrupt (and soon to be) corporate entity.
I'd be more upset if this was something actually important like a government website or something people's lives depend on, but yeah, it's not. It's just entertainment. Folks need to move on.
