God, I wish that was true. Unless we're not counting the terminally online left as actually left-wing, which, while understandable, makes discussing them more difficult.

Xitter’s low-scoring TOS has a couple legal avenues for ownership of content.

This service can license user content to third parties.

The service can sell or otherwise transfer your personal data as part of a bankruptcy proceeding or other type of financial transaction.

The new defining feature of being a Democrat is being broke. Why is it when someone has a windfall go their way they shift as far right as possible. I wonder why that is.

Putting on my tinfoil hat for a moment, imagine the wealthy elite learned of an impending global disaster that would lead to the collapse of civilization that was set to occur in less than 20 years. How might they react? Would they start hoarding wealth and resources at an unprecedented level? Maybe start entirely disregarding laws, trade agreements, and climate goals, because what's the point? Start building massive bunkers, complexes, or giant yachts they can comfortably spend the rest of their lives in? How about desperately starting space companies with ambitious goals to colonize other planets like Mars in extremely short time scales; before quietly scaling back when those goals prove impossible to meet in time?

Any of these actions sound familiar?

Definitely tin foil hatish. Just build the bunker and you good. Most of these fucks will be long dead.

If that happens, the MSNBC initialism will stand for "Most 'Scientific' News Broadcasting Corporation".

At this point, someone will quote MLK's Letter From the Birmingham jail.

"We don't need the Liberals! The same people who couldn't get Bernie nominated are really a vast majority who are going to rise up any day now..."

But Karl Marx wrote...

It's the Gish Gallop with better reference...
