On Sunday, Musk also tweeted out a video of Harris saying her pronouns and describing her appearance for accessibility and captioned the post, “Imagine 4 years of this…”
Of all the petty things to get mad about...

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

His transgender child no longer speaks to him.

Don't underestimate how triggered some people are by the pronoun thing. I saw someone get totally irate over the fact that a public place had a single all-gender bathroom even though there were normally gendered bathrooms next to it, and the all-gender bathroom would have just been a "family" bathroom 20 years ago. People are getting triggered by the smallest things now.
Id rather 4 years of that over letting a dumbass unintelligent lazy bully and literal dictator run the country any day
They really shouldn't be using Twitter anymore. Bluesky or Mastodon would be fine.
They go everywhere the people are - lots of people are still on Xitter.
If they went to threads, Bluesky, or their own lemmy server, ALL the news outlets would follow.
i mean i don't think she cares about twitter. her target base isn't white supremacists and nazis
Elon is being on brand? Shocker! He's always been an insecure pissy little baby. I hope there's some legal action he might be threatened with. No matter how small. Because he's just starting.
lol he is so fucking scared right now. It’s pretty obvious.
Can't spell felon without Elon.
But my freedom of Speech. Fuck this musk rat! (If this is true that is, it's too obvious)
Tax the rich and tax all corporations fairly. This will help the average American and it pisses of man babies like Mr Twatzie.
I sure hope this guy gets booted from running Tesla. And same for Xitter.
I'd like more options for EV, but no way I'm ever buying anything Tesla as long as he's the face of that company. It'd be like buying a stupid red hat and walking around, except worse, because people are likely to key my car or throw a brick through the windshield since he's so hated. I guess I could get into a physical altercation wearing one of those dumb hats, but at least it's less of an investment...
I thought Elmo was a FREEZED PEACH AB-SO-LOOOOT-ISSHT!?
