At this point we are getting daily news about massive scandals, laws being broken, and so on

When can we expect the European Union to take action ?

I know it's not the case, but if this had been any smaller company or poor person they wouldn't be able to get away with it for so long.

Can't the EU ban Twitter altogether though ?

They can, but they won't.
Banning on ever fines are supposed to be last resort action, not starting point.

There are just so many laws being broken though:

- Privacy laws
- Employment laws

It's honestly scary that nothing is happening..

ACAB!

Mermaids is an amazing organisation. Hope they can fight through this. I wonder if this is pushback after Mermaids has been fighting LGB Alliance to remain a charity under the Charity Commission.

So now it's "pushback" and "targeted harassment" to look into charties that may be exploiting their status? And potentially engaged in crimes? I think I know of a few Supreme Court Justices who could get behind this idea for Christian charities in the United States.

Wouldn't stop him from just reporting shit and never checking if it led to a ban like he apparently did before. There was all kinds of TERFy shit you could do on Twitter except misgendering before, every prominent TERF made sure to specifically not misgender while people angry at them would get banned for all kinds of stuff.

I like the taste of coffee. But it is a trigger for me.

I used to be made to drink coffee as a kid. Not weaker stuff, the strong stuff. So my system is shot to hell, my normal is when I'm shaking all over the place and thinking a mile a minute.

It's why withdrawal symptoms don't deter me from alcoholism. It's a similar problem, even with all the pain it brings.

I prefer an orange juice. Or a really nice mint tea.

Them not understanding it is load of bullshit.
Just check out any thread or news articles with a comment section about Musky firing employees who say anything against him, and they are filled with his professional dick riders saying shit like "Private company firing people is nothing to do with Freedom of Speech!" and "Freedom of Speech is not freedom from consequences!".

They understand fully, but they also understand what game is being played, which is the right-wing propaganda designed to trick normies into believing that the left wing is anti Freedom of Speech and that they are its defenders.

I'm done entertaining this notion that these people are anything other than malicious actors.

I will not put all the blame to Right Wing propaganda. You guys have really fought for that recognition, even if it is a half truth.

User Banned (2 Weeks): Armchair Diagnoses of Mental Health

He isn't well, there's a difference between his narcisisitic side and what's he doing now, this isn't bipolarity, all signs point that he is slowly loosing his mind. Right now he mumbles, says things that lead to nowhere and is just resentful, before he had a logic and would come off clean in his thoughts. I feel like he is off every type of med that was ever given to him and his mind is slowly decaying, feels bad watching him in this condition.

Dude completely lives in the right wing online sphere that gobbles up literally anything against "The Left" so yeah just like all his goons he really believes this is all a big deal, which is why he was so hyped up and excited in the lead-up.

I swear I did not keep scrolling just to see if they would come up:

Cool cool, now he is trying to destabilize democracies by making baseless accusations about their elections. Our governments really need to step in and shut this fucker down already.

Many years ago I thought Elon was interesting with his crazy plans for EVs etc. Dude seemed like a smart and driven dude.

Last few years have cemented that he just made too much damn money and that control he gained just made him into a gigantic childish shitbird. Nobody should be able to make this much money that they can do and say whatever the fuck the want.

The quicker someone shuts him up, the better. And take Kanye with him too.

He’s turn crazy, dangerous and has waaay too much power for a mere individual CEO.

This rhetoric can lead to violence.

If only the violence were directed at Musk exclusively... 😔

I won’t say it but you can

And here it is. The point was to amplify right wing voices and conspiracy theiries, silence reporters who actually report facts, and even attempt to undermine democracies where the alt right have a foot hold. That would be worth the billions *someone* gave him

It'll be interesting to see what happens when a terror attack (or several) is found to be directly linked to Twitter and Musk's recklessness. Probably nothing even though it should be treated like the new 8chan at this point.

Fin:

Every right wing nut job has to be borderline having a heart attack on a daily basis. How the hell can they be this angry and worked up on a daily basis? Blows my fucking mind

They don't want to get it.

How can they live in constant aggrievement if they admit the flaw in their logic?

What good faith? You literally said nothing even when I responded again to answer you!

This is exactly what I was talking about. Jumping immediately to the worst thing you can come up with clearly I must have ignored you, it's not like I could have not noticed the answer before... like chill.
I said take a step back reread what they wrote and rethink why they answered to you that you didn't understand a thing they were actually saying. I was echoing that sentiment cause to me it seemed also like you didn't. So I'm confused why you're trying to take their argument now to me. I'm like perfectly fine if you still disagree with them but what you actually disagreed with them about was totally off the mark again.

And here is the radical idea of actually showcasing good faith instead of subscribing your worst interpretation of what they could mean how about asking them what they meant.

But I already said that and you still just went on trying to beef with me instead of resolving that. So let's just drop it.

Learning to not talk down to women while referring to them as men might be a good start. Only one of us turned around to whine about the nebulous 'era' when they received some criticism for it. There's no beauty in blaming the whole forum for your own lack of tact.

Not aware where I talked down to women and misgendered them but if I did I apologize and will edit my post accordingly. There is nothing nebulous about "era" unless you're trying to be obtuse. I'm clearly trying to say without pointing fingers singling people out that it's a few aggressive posters often ruining the discussion by frankly being bullies about their opinions. I don't see the need to be more specific by finger pointing at people in this thread. We all can see who is aggressive and I find it hard to believe if you've been here long enough that you wouldn't be able to observe that, it's part of the culture and reason why many parts of its original community have left this place.

Narcissistic Personality disorder (NPD) does exist, also small minority of bipolar people during their manic phase exhibit narcissistic traits and are often misdiagnosed as having NPD. It’s not until those with BPD get out of the manic phase that those narcissistic traits go away vs NPD, those traits are always there.

Right, like Trump clearly has NPD. Musk seems likely, too. But they seem more or less lucid.

Kanye seems like he's completely delusional at times. I won't be surprised if he starts saying things like he believes he's Jesus Christ himself, soon.

Dude is gone, and like Trump, he has clearly come to terms that this is who he is. Even if he gets excellent treatment for his bipolar disorder, there's just as much chance of Trump becoming a good person as there is of Kanye rejecting his admiration of Hitler. It's wild that he has lasted this long in the industry, considering he's been a absolute piece of shit for soooo long now. I wonder if anyone has been given as many chances as Kanye has...

I just want Kanye to completely disappear. Not wanting him to die or anything, but he needs to just go away. He's so fucking toxic.

This too isn't a diagnosis but it's definitely armchair something (that I see in a lot of the self-diagnosers) BPD (borderline personality disorder) is very distinct from bipolar. If you tell me you have bipolar I may consider if you're in a cycle, if you tell me you're BPD... I see five Kayne Wests* at a table.

I find it interesting to see how many era members have all these reasons to keep their personal Twitter account. You are a positive metric for that piece of crap. I'd like to know for those staying what your cut off is? What has to happen for you to delete your account? Sadly I feel those who haven't already won't ever. I'm sure to get roasted for this but i wonder what it will take.

For an Artist exodus. Twitter is the only place I can follow artists I like. I wish I could delete my account but still have a way to see updates of accounts I like.

Acceptable.

Why do I have to be put on trial for you? I’ll deactivate when I’m ready. People I follow still post there and I don’t get right wing ads. So I’ll continue to post until it becomes untenable.

This is such nonsense. Mind your own damn business.

Many of us have spent years on this platform, building important relationships and communities. We are all waiting for a viable alternative to emerge and be widely available so that we can migrate en masse.

Until that happens, we’re stuck. So cool it with the judgy attitude.

Lol is queen bee really trying to trap someone with misgendering when they used the term “hey man” as if that isn’t a universal phrase for talking to anyone, I’ve said it to my mum before lol

Didn't they already ban for "guys" before everyone culturally appropriated "y'all" as the acceptable progresssive vernacular for referring to a group of people?

[Boredfrom]

lol someone bring out Etika:

This. I'm reminded of the Etika situation and how that was treated here. I honestly believe with the way Kanye is going there is a decent chance he will end up the same way or worse.

I can't understand how people are saying that mental illness can't be used to explain Kanye's support for nazis. Mental illness has excused horrific things in our court systems. Does Kanye have to become a cannibal for people to realize that all of this is due to mental illness?

Guess the ban message.

User banned (2 weeks): Tone policing

Why did you ignore me now lol
What good faith? You literally said nothing even when I responded again to answer you!

This is exactly what I was talking about. Jumping immediately to the worst thing you can come up with clearly I must have ignored you, it's not like I could have not noticed the answer before... like chill.
I said take a step back reread what they wrote and rethink why they answered to you that you didn't understand a thing they were actually saying. I was echoing that sentiment cause to me it seemed also like you didn't. So I'm confused why you're trying to take their argument now to me. I'm like perfectly fine if you still disagree with them but what you actually disagreed with them about was totally off the mark again.

And here is the radical idea of actually showcasing good faith instead of subscribing your worst interpretation of what they could mean how about asking them what they meant.

But I already said that and you still just went on trying to beef with me instead of resolving that. So let's just drop it.

Learning to not talk down to women while referring to them as men might be a good start. Only one of us turned around to whine about the nebulous 'era' when they received some criticism for it. There's no beauty in blaming the whole forum for your own lack of tact.

Not aware where I talked down to women and misgendered them but if I did I apologize and will edit my post accordingly. There is nothing nebulous about "era" unless you're trying to be obtuse. I'm clearly trying to say without pointing fingers singling people out that it's a few aggressive posters often ruining the discussion by frankly being bullies about their opinions. I don't see the need to be more specific by finger pointing at people in this thread. We all can see who is aggressive and I find it hard to believe if you've been here long enough that you wouldn't be able to observe that, it's part of the culture and reason why many parts of its original community have left this place.

No tone policing!  Only gatekeeping!

I shared this story before, but I was… I remember being in English class, the subject of Homer Simpson came up and I remember saying “Well, he’s stupid.” And some jock from across the room shouts across the room and says “You’re stupid, you distinguished mentally-challenged fellow!”

Yeah, because of my small case of Asperger’s, he and some other kids would call me “distinguished mentally-challenged fellow” whenever they could.

Being one of the 5 black kids in a high school does result in a few fights

People even tried to set me on fire, threw up on me, robbed me.

Fuck knows what I've repressed.

Of course I was bullied. I remember telling one of my friends that I would happily listen to the Super Mario 64 OST on a CD player and this kid in earshot thought that was the dumbest thing he had ever heard in his life.

I was relatively well liked and had a highly successful dating life as a teen, so I guess I lucked out in that regard.

Let's just say my doctor told my parents to get me out

I was bullied pretty badly in 8th grade. Kids saying that I smelled bad and was dirty.

Yes. Middle school was the worst. It got pretty ugly and I ended up getting expelled after I tried to stand up for myself.

I ran into some of my Middle School bullies in High School. I didn’t want to talk to them.

The one that really left an impact involved this girl that sat in front of me in bio. She was above average in looks, and I was the nerd-pest that annoyed her, but to the point where (I thought) it was friendly. One day the class is walking over somewhere in the school building for some activity. I overheard her talking to her friends, and my name (let's call me John) was mentioned. So like an idiot I said, "Are you talking about me?" Her reply, "Ummm no? I think I have better taste than that." Her friends did the whole ooooooooh laugh, and was high-fiving her for the burn. It turns out she was referring to this other jock with the same name as me. I was left speechless.

Yeah, quite hard even, including getting my arm stabbed bloody with a pencil and the teacher not being interested, even after showing him my arm, blood dripping on the floor straight in front of his face. I snapped a few days later when I got bullied again. Broke his nose with one heavy blow and went home.
School played the victim blaming game when we had a meeting with everyone involved, parents, teacher etc. and they banned me from the school.
This event changed and fucked me up forever.
I was just 18 years old, shy/silent in class, already having undiagnosed adhd and anxiety disorders.

I was bullied in Elementary school. Badly. By many kids. Dozens. I was effectively a social pariah, all because it was "funny" to pick on me. It was like a running joke for a good chunk of the student body, and it lasted for years. School employees did jack shit outside of having me talk to a guidance councilor every once in a while.

I didn't even have a single friend.

At age 11, I was suicidal. I expressed to my parents and therapist that I wanted to be dead. That was when my parents pulled the plug and got me out of public education in favor of homeschooling.

I'm 28 now and living an infinitely happier, contented life, though I do have a lot of trouble interacting with other people. I can't even make eye contact with my parents, let alone other people. And I freaking despise children.

I was okay up until middle school when the white moms got upset an immigrant Latina was doing better than their blonde daughters. So I got bullied by both the kids and the moms. Fun times.

I think a number of these may be incomplete or exaggerated slightly. Thread definitely has a very fluid definition of "bullying" too.

Also:

Bullied feels too light a term for what I experienced in school.

Well, I have an idea for a term for what Joanne did to you in school.

So hi, I'm the guy who got scammed out of 40 bucks on a hookup app. I'm trying to turn this experience into a net positive and putting myself back out there on more legitimate channels. Would anybody be willing to look over my Bumble profile and see what I can improve? I already know my pictures suck so I would like some ideas on what to do there.

Some reasonable advice

How does this sound?

I'm the guy your mom told you to worry about - the cyclist nerd. I'm looking for a player two but more than that - someone who enjoys conversation, doing right by others and, of course, cycling. I'm down for drinks, walks/bikes or just hanging out and watching/playing something.

Currently learning this the hard way as a potential significant other decided that my support for LGBTQIAA rights and happiness was enough to decide she couldn’t accept me, despite both of us being cis. On principle apparently, questioning my faith along the way.

It’s just more comfortable/safe for some people to lean into conservatism. I expected better. My disappointment is immense, but at least one asshole has been avoided.

He left out the part where he muttered about how she'll be "taken care of when the revolution comes" and when she asked what he said he screamed "TRANS RIGHTS ARE HUMAN RIGHTS! END JOANNE'S APARTHIED NOW!" as he absconded out the window, then ran and jumped into the bushes.

What ResetERA.com expected to happen:
Elon Musk: "Oh god please don't delist us, I was only trying to seize power for fascists globally."
Tim Apple: "Do better, or else, Elon, with great power comes great responsibility. Much like the late T'Challa, I don't take kindly to Nazis, consider this your final warning. I have all the Infinity Gems already, I just need to place them in my Infinity Gauntlet."
Elon Musk: "Yes, yes, absolutely, I will make sure there will be no freedom from consequences, my fingers are not crossed, I am weak and pathetic like all fascists, please don't kill me."

What Happened Based On EXCLUSIVE Internal Spies EXCLUSIVE To The Bire (CONFIRMED TRANSCRIPT):
Tim Apple: "Hi, Elon, thanks for coming."
Elon Musk: "I should have never tried to buy this stupid thing, what a mess. Who knew!"
Tim Apple: "I agree."
Elon Musk: "Oh, well, what can you do now, got to make it work somehow I suppose."
Tim Apple: "I agree."
Elon Musk: "Anyway, I don't remember what this dispute is about that I learned about from some random guy tweeting at me, we don't make any money anyway so what does your share matter?"
Tim Apple: "I agree."
Elon Musk: "Great, hey, check out this meme I just got, it's a Walrus wearing a swastika arm band and a pirate hat eating a pineapple and it says "WOKE REEEEEEE FART" on it, these guys are so fucking funny. Oh! HA! L O FUCKING L, here's another one it has a dog..."

I recently worked with a patient who who had several mental health issues. One minute he’ll be happy to see you, next minute he’ll cuss you out then minutes later he’ll apologize and start crying. He would sexually harass the staff,he was narcissistic, craved attention and would do extreme things like act out as a nazi , seig heil and all. Dude would be sweet too but everyone grew to hate him by the end of his stay and he got transferred eventually.

Guys, seriously, can we stop with the nonsense moralizing? There was no danger, he didn't hurt anyone, there's no need for any nonsense. The dude wanted to break a world record and then went and did it. It's more than most of us can say they've ever done.

How is this a real response from the moderation/admin team? "It's more than most of us can say they've ever done?" Are you kidding me!?

Not only can we not call something out for simply being a dumb achievement, we also apparently can't criticize something for celebrating an unhealthy action.

You should consider changing either your moderation policies or your personal judgement.
