    New research shows Hate speech dramatically surges on Twitter following Elon Musk takeover

     

    copied from CNN

     

    New Twitter owner Elon Musk declared last month that “hate speech impressions” had dramatically fallen on the platform since he took over.
    It was a remarkable claim, given that Musk has executed mass layoffs and chased away hundreds of employees, draining the company of much-needed resources to enforce content moderation policies, which the billionaire has also publicly criticized.

    But on Friday, two watchdog groups published research that indicated Musk’s claim simply did not hold water, offering one of the clearest pictures to date of the surging tide of hate speech on the platform.

    Straight from the horses mouth....

    "There are about 500M tweets per day & billions of impressions, so hate speech impressions are <0.1% of what’s seen on Twitter!"

    The Great One will be releasing the crack pipe hooker laptop suppression story at 5pm ET today.  This is the first in a slew of investigative journalism unleashing the truth behind the government suppression of information.  I could care less about crack, hookers and President's kids....BUT, the suppression of the truth by government is something I'll always stand against.  Whether it be from the left, middle or right....free Assange.

    More from the Great One....

     

    Hate speech impressions (# of times tweet was viewed) continue to decline, despite significant user growth!

    will publish data weekly. Freedom of speech doesn’t mean freedom of reach. Negativity should & will get less reach than positivity.

    -Mr. Musk

     Careful...the purpose of posting is to interact with respect even if you disagree. It is better if you stop yourself from posting than reply with childish retorts. And just for the record, Musk is as biased as you will find, so truth from a biased partisan clown is what exactly??

    European union commission warns Musk that twitter could face ban over inadequate content moderation.  Also Washington is reviewing purchase of the social network because of foreign investment.  History shows that when markets fail to protect consumers, governments must intervene.

    Wally....we have had some good talks on thread and off thread.  Why do you "warn" me about posting when I do nothing other than the same posting the other botsbodies do?  

    "childish retorts"  ???  Really???  Have you seen what is posted and how by some in here???  You just turn the blind I when I am called names by others... I could start a thread with examples but that's not what it is about....if there is a rule I have broken or if I have posted something you can show as an example that would help me understand.  In this thread I have merely copied & pasted Elon's tweets in response to the thread title.  You can see my posts, I interact with Darkness, BG, UNI and a few others on a regular basis.  Jupiter's 3rd Moon and myself are buddies now after some insightful conversation.  Third responds to posts but I wouldn't necessarily call that "interacting".  I can't help that Kelly and Fupa choose not to respond to me because they are speechless at my truths and logic.  You need to ask them why they copy & paste repeatedly without ANY interaction except that of each other.  

    I am going to get censored here for what exactly???  

    I don't get into BS over the weekends, it is for family and peace in life... I wish everyone a wonderful weekend and I'll see you Monday morning.  Go Chiefs.

    Twitter must comply with Europe’s platform rules, EU digital chief warns Musk

     

    Washington CNN Business — 

    A top European Union official warned Twitter owner Elon Musk
    on Wednesday that the social media platform must take significant
    steps to comply with EU content moderation laws, and that European
    officials will be monitoring closely for compliance.

         “Twitter will have to implement   transparent user policies,
         significantly reinforce content moderation and protect freedom
         of speech, tackle disinformation with resolve, and limit 
         targeted advertising,” Breton said in a statement.

    Aside from that who cares what a partisan kid thinks? Elon is an abusive smug condescending jerk. He is partisan as much as Don Lemon is for CNN, neither bring much of value to the table. Aside from his obvious biases I just dislike abusive people, he is a horrible example and is a political divider, I see no truth coming from him of any kind. Truth is not partisan, truth is not blanket biases and truth has no agenda....
