Elon’s Propaganda Popup on X/itter [1]

['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.']

Date: 2024-05-31  

Quick diary. Ive been scrolling twitter since the verdict yesterday. I only follow accounts on the Dem side of election twitter, but since yesterday about 90% of the posts Ive seen have been from accounts claiming to be undecided voters that are now absolutely committed to Trump (lol). Seems like an intentional move by Elon to amplify and flood the feeds w these kinda of accounts.



Starting a couple hours ago, whenever I click on a long post to read the expanded version, theres about a 20% chance that a popup window shows up (see the image above) discussing Bill Clinton’s “hush money” payment in the 90’s. Ive never seen this happen before, its very annoying and its clearly intentional by Elon to add some “whataboutism” to the discussion. All this is just gross and obviously intentional.

for the record Im not a conspiracy theorist, this is just my guess that Elon’s trying to steer the narrative rn.

sad day for social media.
