  • I love this narrative that space colonization is about getting the “elite” off Earth after they’ve supposedly ruined it, leaving the rest of us behind. And then what? Are the elite going to sit inside a tiny capsule on Mars for the rest of their lives, eating potatoes and drinking recycled urine?

    If an asteroid were about to impact Earth and I had to choose between the elite escaping to another planet or humanity going extinct, I’d gladly let the elite survive to restart civilization elsewhere.



  • To claim they’re not trying to combat the problem is a lie. I used to get several bot followers a day around a year ago. Now I got none and I’ve lost a ton of subscribers because the bot accounts are getting deleted. The amount of bots was also the reason Elon wanted to turn down the deal to begin with because twitter lied about it.

    Also, misinformation can be combated with community notes. An open source feature I’m not aware of any other social media platform having.
