X is very much Musk's "the hero fights a giant spider" and Twitter has become Wild Wild West (1999)
Others have pointed this out, but this renaming is stepping on the exact same rake that got him ousted by PayPal. Wrote about this in my book

The Government has confirmed today that the publication of draft trans guidance for schools has been delayed again. We welcome this delay, as the Government's current approach to trans young people would be discriminatory, harmful and unworkable 🧡

Ricky Gervais has recently been liking tweets that bully, harass and deadname a trans woman. But the people who criticise him doing that are the *real bullies.* "It's just "facts"" etc. And "All laughter is good" is such a stupid thing to say. I'll prove it in the next tweet...

The regret rate of gender-affirming surgery is 0.3%. The regret rate for knee replacement surgery is 6-30%. "Transition regret" is a false narrative being pushed by the media to prevent people from getting access to life-saving, gender-affirming healthcare. However... Let's address that 0.3%. Many outside factors contribute to a trans person's regret: πŸ‘‰Unsupportive families. πŸ‘‰Transphobic environments. πŸ‘‰Normal post-op distress. Just because that 0.3% of people regret their surgery doesn't mean they're not transgender. The fear of regret shouldn't stop thousands of trans people from getting access to the healthcare they deserve. Regret rates exist - but not for the reasons the media are trying to push.

In the 1st day of Pride, Elon Musk proclaimed he will lobby to criminalize doctors giving care to trans youth. He then supported removing trans people from the LGBTQ+ community and shared Matt Walsh's anti-trans documentary. Subscribe to support my work. erininthemorning.com/p/musk-…

Hey @johnalexwilly you might want to tell the @Telegraph picture editor to double-check who they’re using as their featured image illustrating β€œtransgender activists”… it’s actually a far-right transphobe who supports Kellie-Jay Keen! πŸ€·πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ

This is what anti-trans propaganda looks like. Janae Kroc (left) set a world record in the men's 220lb weight class in '09 (prior to transition). She's not a women's world champion. Mattie Rogers (right) didn't lose to Janae. She took silver in '19, in the 156lb weight class.

I’ve never read a headline that said β€œStraight, cisgender white man kills everything” even though it’s happened 98% of the time and yet here we are. This is f#%^ing disgusting.
a few months ago i wrote about how der sturmer, a pro-nazi paper in 1930s and 40s germany, laid the groundwork for the holocaust by linking every crime to jewish people. anyhow, here is the front page of rupert murdoch's ny post today.
