A Request- Stop Calling X by the Old Platform Name. [1]

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

Date: 2024-06-03  

Hello everyone. It’s past time for dropping the reference to Twitter each time someone mentions Elon Musk’s horror show X. We know the nature of the beast.

Reminding people it was Twitter perpetuates the platform’s image of a dynamic, powerful, social social media site. It keeps X more afloat than it should be.

The media will keep on referring to it by its past name, because just calling it X is not as attractive as calling it “formerly Twitter”. It’s no longer because they are educating anyone by making the reference. The old name is years gone and anyone with half a brain knows X was Twitter and Musk For Brains changed it while degrading its utility and strengths.

So let’s just stop helping Muskie feed off the old site’s reputation.

BTW while I have your attention, would everyone puhllleeeese stop posting photos of Donny the Loser?

Thanks,

ObviousMan™
