Elon Musk has accused George Soros’s foundation of wanting to destroy western civilisation, as the tech tycoon prepares to meet the Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, in California
Musk made the comment in reply to a post by a user sharing footage of people arriving on the Italian island of Lampedusa from north Africa that referred to a “George Soros led invasion” of Europe
“The Soros organization appears to want nothing less than the destruction of western civilization,” X’s owner posted[…]

…sayeth that which brought something you’d find in say… a toilet to work with him.
Which shows the level he works at. Frankly, the sink would do a better job than you, Muskrat.
People need to dump Twitter .
I found a site called Plurk , which works exactly like Twitter . However, no one uses it and my Plurk account is unused as a result.
Here’s Plurk …
THE SITE: https://www.plurk.com

… maybe this can become a thing! Time to Plurk -ify the web and make it mainstream. Time to demand that sites contain links to Plurk .

It’s the ol’ scapegoat. Soros is wealthy, Jewish and a distraction from the real bad guys.

The problem is, Twitter is what is called a "natural Monopoly" i.e. everyone is on Twitter because everyone else is. So, Twitter will keep it's strong position almost irrespective of how bad it becomes. And even if Twitter fails, it's place would likely be taken by some other large social media site, not something almost no one uses

So what would it take, short of a cataclysm, to disrupt that kind of bandwagon-monopoly? (Although nationalizing Twitter as a public utility has its appeal to me. Just know that the usual suspects will break out the torches and warscythes.)
@Taln_Reich #176768
Well, that can change. Get people to agree together and spread the word. It’s impossible to do on one’s own. Even my Plurk is unused.
However, if a bunch of people at once agree in a group and sign up together, it will be a start, then they can recruit others.

Honestly, I don't know. I really thought the introduction of limits to the number of tweets a unpaid account can look at would do it (given how important doom scrolling is) would do it, but apparently not.
Because somehow, Netanyahu is for western civilization? Musk has a strange conception of it himself and demonstrates it with his actions and relationships.

Well, Netanyahu’s son once posted this …
Alternatively, Netanyahu could mot view this as an issue of antisemitism, seeing as he may well hate Soros for non-antisemitic reasons, being politically opposed to him, (and, hypothetically, George Soros culd be an evil genius controlling and ruining the world but not because he is Jewish.
Also, he may see it as “they are talking about the Bad Jews, not Good Jews who are far-right like me” (as is the case with Ben Shapiro) - which, if you stay near enough to the entrance to the rabbit hole, may even be true. And he may potentially see Soros as the greater threat.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
