We should treat billionaires such that people actively avoid becoming billionaires
We kind of already do, but being a billionaire is not near the top of the list of social ire just because there's so much other crap you can be that's more repulsive
We absolutely do not put the proper level of fear for their actual lives in billionaires, whatever joke of a tax they pay is not "fear"

Have you considered the fear of someone yelling at them on the internet though

but also i am too exhausted to care. the world is going fascist again, nazis are rising again, supposed allies are transphobic to me on the daily
saying "billionaires should die" is not a crime and even if it was i truly do not give a shit. their rules have gotten me nowhere by design. i know the consequences of my words and actions

for once I'm like "...well played, Chappelle fans"
well in that case it's time we got down to the real shit like the number of lizard men in Congress and how they're affecting the Illuminati's role in the true beacon of hope for our society, Wikipedia's secret drone fleet that's spreading chemtrails full of fentanyl which THEY don't want you to know is actually a harmless byproduct of UFO flybys.
Musk getting booed it's hilarious but I'm very curious about the mental gymnastics involved in being a Chapelle fan in 2022 but not liking Musk.
They're both rich assholes with crappy opinions..
Plenty of people are just straight unaware of the controversy around Chapelle or believe that it's mostly exaggerated and the shows are good besides some bits people are trying to be offended by.
Bringing Musk out is an obvious signal that Chapelle is actually, clearly leaning into the culture war in a way people might not have believed to be true or been aware of.
I think a federally mandated assassination would be a most condign demise for these boards, what you think its gonna last forever, cant you see the suns setting fast and just like they say nothin good ever lasts
Do you like my photos? The stupid things I say? The way I am alive? You can contribute to that staying the same through the following link

Chapelle has gone on the record as hating people quoting his old Chapelle Show skits back at him, especially the Rick James lines. So it’s an already tone-deaf thing to say on several levels, and the fans would likely not respond well to that. Especially since it’s played out in general.

I would prefer not to lose a good place I genuinely enjoy hanging out at because of impotent death threats lobbed behind a veil of not giving a fuck.
"i think it would be cool if the richest man in the world died" is not a threat, it is a cry of exasperation. as you said, it is impotent. it means nothing.
some of us can't afford to go "blood libel on twitter? nazis? attacks on minorities from every angle in the real world? let me post pictures of my pets!" i get wanting a break or distraction from the horrors of the world, but after a point that just becomes choosing ignorance
i would prefer not to suffer in silence and have people tell me to shut up because they want to post on the internet. in 4 months i will have been on these forums for 20 years, i've spent more time posting and talking to people on here than anything else i've done in my life, these forums have saved my life many times. the only way i know how to pay that forward is to try and stop the things that cause suffering. i'll fail and i'll die doing it, but hell, i will be doing something

Marty: The future, it's where you're going? Doc: That's right, twenty five years into the future. I've always dreamed on seeing the future, looking beyond my years, seeing the progress of mankind. I'll also be able to see who wins the next twenty-five world series.

I noticed that I couldn’t see most of the channels when not logged recently (was connecting from a new machine)
Great change overall. Like, yeah sure someone could still create an account just for the purpose of scraping the forums, but at that point you are looking at someone with a specific axe to grind, and we are too small fry in the grand scheme of the internet for most anyone to care. So, that solves about 99.999% of scraping issues. Awesome!
Also, Elon isn't really funny. He hops on memes slower than a Slowpoke, and it always feels like your dad or some corporation trying to jump on trends that make you instantly cringe.
For example, his 'My pronouns are...' is sooooo old, that even the right wing doesn't use that joke much anymore. And using 'woke' just sounds like he's using internet lingo because he heard the kids these days used it. Next he'll be saying 'Based' and 'Cringe', without understanding the underlying meaning.
I’d say he uses woke lest because of that and more because the right has latched onto it now because “political correctness” as a term no longer holds any societal power
So they just appropriated “woke” from AAVE (since it was catching on from Black Twitter and filtering into mainstream twitter from there) and slapped the term onto their old usage of Political Correctness
the truly frustrating thing about the dr. fauci stuff is that he absolutely is a monster responsible for the deaths of millions, but that's all from his handling of the AIDS crisis and has nothing to do with whatever conservatives are mad about
Fauci might have been hobbled by the Trump Administration, but his saying as such meant that when Biden took over, he was lauded as a hero for saying how things should have been done differently... while nothing different was being done by the Biden Administration!

While it is reassuring to know that some folks here know/trust those users, I have no idea who either are - can any context be provided around the twitter users being referenced for sake of legitimacy?

are you referring to the twitter whistleblower thread? It's a public document they are referencing, so I don't know what legitimacy they require. They're just taking parts of a huge document and highlighting them.
Twitter didn't monitor employee computers at all, it was not uncommon for employees to install spyware on work devices
Twitter does not have separate development, test, staging, and production environments. At least 5,000 employees had privileged access to production systems.
In 2020, Twitter had security incidents serious enough they had to be reported to the federal government on an almost weekly basis. Meanwhile, Parag Agarwal was lying about how secure Twitter was.
On 1/6, Mudge (the whistleblower) wanted to take action to prevent potential sabotage by a rogue employee. He learned it was not possible for Twitter to secure its production environment.

Chapelle mostly limits his shittiness to attacking trans people, which unfortunately is still broadly socially acceptable with many

Now I get why the entire security department got sacked (Pre-Musk).
Yeah the lack of access control is pretty...yeeeeikes

holy SHIT
I've seen 5 people web shops with better devops and security. Musk basically blew his money on a complete dump
He's going to use this to justify his crusade against the Woke Mind Virus
