so, yeah, five years on and people on Twitter just kinda endured the Nazis, but now Phony Stark might just tank the whole thing anyway.

Phony Stark would absolutely be in the “white male landowners” are the only people who can vote camp. Skin in the game, my ass.

While I share your concern, I feel like it’s a massive leap from what Phony Stark is whinging about to Chinese-style ubiquitous surveillance of the population in public spaces.

Phony Stark seems to want to drive Twitter off a cliff for whatever reason.

Phony Stark sure spends a lot of his life flying from Oakland to Austin to LA to Oakland to…it's like he doesn't trust his employees to carry out his batshit insane instructions if he can't check up on them in person every couple of days.

Everyone except Phony Stark will get burned by Twitter. It's just a matter of time.

I'm not mad at anything Phony Stark does to Twitter. I am mad (or at least dumbfounded) at respectable professionals still using that service, though.

Preprint quantifying how Twitter has changed since Phony Stark took over.

According to @elonjet, Phony Stark flies about daily. I wonder if he flies high and often enough to worry about high-altitude radiation exposure.

When ever I criticize Elongated Muskrat the best his fans can come up with is “so you hate free speech?” Which is hilarious because firstly, speech is exponentially less free post Phony Stark.
Proper noun: "(derogatory) a nickname for American tech entrepreneur Jeff Bezos"[edit]
2022, Marina Hyde, What Just Happened?!: Dispatches from Turbulent Times, unnumbered page:
It's best to think of Bezos as Phony Stark, the kind of off-brand superhero who could only be thrown up by a planet seemingly incapable of rising to the challenge of itself.
