    I thought all the attention Trump was getting in the news in 2016 would tank him because he always said and did the STUPIDEST shit. It’s hard not to think that exposing as many people as possible to how awful these toxic, narcissistic guys are would make people see the light and help end their crap. But for some reason it doesn’t. Does ignoring it help? I have no idea. Too dumbfounded still to this day.

      Negative press should be promoted. Everything else should be downvoted. This article isn’t negative, but rather a desperate attempt to stay in the 24 hour news cycle.

          I’m curious why you read it that way? This is Elon Musk’s company putting out a PR release for their latest strategy to make money (and make the news). This is Twitter desperately trying to stay relevant. Sharing this information only serves to give free advertising to Twitter.

            Just like you said, the desperation. The act is laughable. But I guess you’re right, I’d rather nobody knew about it and it failed miserably instead

            So you think Musk ordering Twitter to engage in legal identity theft and selling user accounts like a hacker would is somehow a good look?

              “Legal identity theft”? Haha, that’s funny. You have no idea what you’re talking about and you’re drumming up controversy where there is none. You’re just a PR pawn for Twitter, but you’re not intelligent enough to realize it.

                What else are you gonna call selling someone’s digital identity?

                You’re just a PR pawn for Twitter, but you’re not intelligent enough to realize it.

                The only person here being an idiot is you and those like you. Y’all think sticking your head in the sand will somehow make it all go away. Like it or not the shithead owns Twitter. Like it or not he’s one of the richest people on the planet. Like it or not that makes his petty ass extremely powerful. Like it or not there are retards who take digital identies seriously and won’t accept the line of “that isn’t me, Twitter must’ve sold my account” as an excuse when a username you use elsewhere suddenly starts spouting neonazi propaganda.

                Also I hope y’all are happy with this type of behavior because this kind of toxic behavior will kill lemmy in the long run, just like it killed every other Reddit alternative… Y’all make Reddit seem downright positive.

                  Wow, you really are too stupid to realize you’re a pawn for Twitter’s PR team. Go back to Reddit.
