the funny thing about all the journalists saying they are going to leave twitter / start their own twitter is the thing they will discover is nobody cares.
news is very 90s. nobody cares about journalists at all in 2022. the only way they had any sort of fame is they all boosted each other by retweeting each other. if they move off twitter nobody will be there to read their stupid opinions |

Kind of like you might assume they actually want to stop gang violence in cities. In both cases you would be wrong because you have not yet understood that they are sociopaths that only care about enriching themselves. |

Which would be the smart thing to do. The Democrats just elected a mentally impaired man and apparently a dead man for a lower position. The "they" picked Harris as VP even though she was losing terribly in the 2020 primary and had ripped on Biden hard during the debates. "they" want someone loyal and we all know what Kamala will do for a job. I'm still expecting some type of public episode with Biden where Kamala rushes to him, then as Biden is recovering she takes center stage for a couple weeks so that out of sympathy many in the country start to feel for her and become attached. Then Joe says he needs to step aside. She serves the remaining 2 years and then tries to run for 2 more terms. That gives the Dems the first female President and she gets to be President for 10 years. She breaks all the records and the Dems will think they have a significant claim to history. I believe that was their plan, she is so terrible in front of the camera that they might have to change it and do what you said. |

I'd absolutely never buy another iPhone again if they drop Twitter over reinstating a handful of accounts that were banned for circumspect reasons. I get the whole sandboxed ecosystem argument where app security is a big deal but if they're going to claim people can't load their own apps then they need to be absolutely non-partisan about which apps get in the App Store. Virtue signaling from your own platform is one thing but trying to silence other people is a whole different animal. |

Instead, Apple uses different target-specific Twitter accounts like iTunes, AppleTV and the iOS App Store. Apple also uses the accounts of executives like CEO Tim Cook to make product announcements and messages about the technology giant. Cook has 13.7 million followers on Twitter, more than the official Apple account.” |

Most corporate expense policies explicitly state no alcohol or tobacco can be purchased with corporate or even personal cards and reimbursed. There are sometimes exceptions for high level management.
As stated, these shitstains were trying to rack up massive bills on their way out as a fuck you to Musk. Hope they got stuck with the bill or get prosecuted (I know, I know). |
