I didn't leave my house and I easily out-earned you. And the only sweat was from an afternoon run.

That's really galling for you isn't it.

His little baby arms are literally shaking right now. Although that could just be the DTs.

Now now, we all know it's impolite to poke fun at a medical condition. Alcohol addiction is a disease prevalent among the weak minded.

The reason for this Democrat meltdown is obvious. They still, to this day, just can’t stomach seeing an African-American in charge.

Elon told him comedy is now legal and he hasn't stopped telling jokes since.

: So, you guys like to tell jokes and giggle and kid around, huh? Gigglin' like a bunch of young broads in a schoolyard. Well, let me tell a joke. Five guys, sittin' in a bullpen, in San Quentin. Wondering how the F they got there. What did we do wrong? What shoulda we done? What didn't we do? It's your fault, my fault, his fault. All that BS. Finally someone comes up with the idea, Wait a minute. While we were planning this caper, all we did was sit around tell Fin' jokes!

My African-American friend Elon told me this one. ‘’How do all jokes about African-Americans start?’’

Train wreck & entertainment. 

Musk, and this thread.

I guess it was fine when the silenced voices were on the right.  Nobody in politics or the press cares about free speech, the only speech that matters is the speech that agrees with them.

Silenced voices.

Getting banned from a website, does not mean you are silenced. You folks actually complained when Trump was banned, despite him having a TV studio in the white house. He had full access to all kinds of media, but you cry your tiny baby tears, "Waaaah, the right is being silenced!!!!! Waaahh!!!"

 

Here's a thought, don't violate the TOS of a public media site. Then you probably won't be banned. If Kathy Griffin never gets to post again, who would shed a tear? Who cares'? Who knows anything she has ever tweeted?

It really is amazing how two-faced the right wing has become. Musk buys twitter and suddenly Twitter is relevant, twitter is good, twitter is truth, and bannings for violating the TOS is good.

Trump was SO silenced. You barely heard from the guy after Twitter banned him.

 

For inciting violence. (but maybe he made fun of Elon too, not sure)

I couldn't care less about who is or isn't banned from twitter, I don't use the platform.  It's just interesting that what was once acceptable is now an outrage since the shoe is on the other foot.  It is also interesting that those crying about Trump being banned are ok with the current status.  I'm highly entertained by those who first said it is a private company that can do what it wants but now that the shoe is on the other foot have a hard time accepting what they preached.

It's really not. I know you guys think it is but we really don't care. Elon owns Twitter and can do whatever he wants with it. It's just hilarious how transparent Republicans have become. Trust me, we're having fun with this.

Who is outraged? We are making fun of the dolts who cried about Trump and laugh about Griffin.

Trust me, the outrage has been on the right, and now, we see right here, those same people applauding.

Twitter is not a government site. You obey the TOS or you get booted.

You guys don't understand.

There are some left-wing lunatics on twitter who are "outraged" about all this. 

So, obviously, everybody here in CVON left of Mussolini is likewise outraged.

It makes total sense.

The real problem is that the right wasn't just outraged, they had convinced their politicians that it was time to step in and punish private businesses for what they considered censorship.

It's pretty emblematic of where the once-conservative right is now.  They want the government to impose it's will on private businesses, as long as that will serves their daily outrage.

So it was the Republicans who invented the 'Mary Poppins of Disinformation' (Nina Jankowicz).  This was the short-lived Disinformation Governance Board.  It seems like they were the ones trying to impose their will on private businesses when they created this.

That's the same generalization being made now of people on the right, there's no difference.

And what were they proposing exactly?  What punitive actions did they take against social media companies?  Because Trump specifically pushed to drop Section 230 to allow people to sue social media companies because he was sad that Republicans were kicked off for violating their Terms of Service.

You are all missing the point. This isn't about free speech, or cancel culture, or any of it...

This is the best comedy since season 4 of The Simpsons. What would happen if a dog caught a car, or in this case a delusional billionaire bought a company after doing no due diligence, made himself the entire management team and then basically spent all day trolling while the company burned?

Now we know. It's comedy gold.

I'm sorry, but there's no equivalence between the bases when it comes to crazy.

Polls show that most Republicans believe Trump won in 2020. A slim majority of Republicans will view a Republican candidate unfavorably if they don't say Trump won.

Republicans in Arizona spent millions on a fraudit chasing ghosts of bamboo paper and other products of right wing conspiracy theorists.

Virtually any Republican candidate who was even circumspect about whether or not there was "fraud" in 2020 was rendered nonviable by the base. Republican voters nominated Doug freaking Mastriano and Kari Lake, among others.

The only state who DIDN'T nominate crazy right-wingers is Georgia, whose Republican voters somehow had sense enough to retain Raffensperger along with Kemp - who has been putting on a masterclass in how to operate as a normal Republican in the Trump era. 

There are plenty of rank-and-file Republicans here that continue to defend those who participated in January 6th, downplaying the violence and buying into nonsense "false flag" claims. And almost all of them believe Trump "did nothing wrong" on January 6th.Meanwhile Marjorie Taylor Greene and Jim Jordan are two of the biggest fundraisers on the right. And they're both bat-crap insane.

No doubt the left has its crazy. But it's also pushed back on the craziest wing and kept them in check, while the crazies are driving the bus on the right. And you don't have to take my word for it, here's Justin Amash who rarely has a kind thing to say about Democrats:

Claiming there is some equivalence between the voting bases of the two parties is simply lazy BS.
