The owner of the largest and most influential media platform in all human history, Twitter, that spans all the world’s religions and all the world’s languages (Unicode) and all the nations of the world with Internet TCP/IP reach… is ADMITTING in public that there are “mind viruses” used by media networks.
Are people now seeing why Elon Musk’s $44 Billion purchase of Twitter makes sense? He is saying out loud what used to be only spoken in secret by billionaires. (Context NOTE: I used to work for 2 of the 3 richest billionaires in social media systems in the late 1990’s, I was a consultant in Bellevue Washington and was directed to give consulting advice to Bill Gates’s father (Preston Gates law firm), and I was hired to work on private staff of Paul Allen co-founder of Microsoft, my office in Bellevue was 10 doors down from Vern Raburn and Paul Allen in 1997 / I was social messaging systems manager, I had Edward Snowden level access to Microsoft Board of Directors comms)
The implications of Elon Musk disclosing that media platform owners spread “mind virus” is not getting attention - THE IMPLICATIONS of full disclosure of this on Saudi Arabia / Mecca / Rupert Murdoch global media systems, etc can NOT BE OVERSTATED!
8-word Twitter-length negging comment to support Elon Musk Twitter platform over Lemmy, how predictable and expected when criticizing billionaires on Lemmy in April 2025. It’s not like Elon Musk doesn’t own an entire Internet Service Provider that is global (Starlink) and has the largest machine learning center in the world in Memphis to have a bunch of people manipulated as “True Believers” all over the Internet.

Russia-watcher Catherine Fitzpatrick, who documents Kremlin disinformation for InterpreterMag . com, says just as Moscow uses vague Internet laws to encourage self-censorship, trolls inhibit informed debate by using crude dialogue to change “the climate of discussion.” “If you show up at The Washington Post or New Republic sites, where there’s an article that’s critical of Russia, and you see that there are 200 comments that sound like they were written by 12-year-olds, then you just don’t bother to comment,” she says. “You don’t participate. It’s a way of just driving discussion away completely,” she adds. “Those kinds of tactics are meant to stop democratic debate, and they work.” - Moscow is financing legions of pro-Russia Internet commenters. But how much do they matter? Daisy Sindelar. August 12, 2014
The his has to be a bot right? It’s speaking nonsense and vomiting out links pretty fast in response to comments.
You are dehumanizing a real person, I have a Lemmy Community for you to get educated since you are a “Fake Bot Detector” and can not tell human persons from ChatGPT and other Large Language Models: !FakeDetectors@lemm.ee
Maybe just because you have a literacy and “reading comprehension” and inability to use WIkipedia to understand things you can’t immediately grasp problem and can’t ask for clarification doesn’t make it nonsense.
Can you provide an exact quote of what you don’t understand? Go beyond Twitter-think Twitter-length thinking?
I’ve been using computers and social media since 1983, I might actually have experience that you don’t have.

You’re right man maybe you’re the smartest mother fucker around and we are all just gibbering idiots because we don’t believe in the woke mind virus.
Also fuck you.
No, I am stupid and dumb, I have extreme brain damage, I have openly declared this right on Lemmy.
Why do you only care about people being dumb and smart? I’m here to address power of Elon Musk. This isn’t about people being dumb and smart.
You hate human persons, you believe in Hate as Faith, your personal religion is to Hate people you disagree with. That’s the same faith as Elon Musk and Donald Trump and Rupert Murdoch. I can see why you replied here on Lemmy social machines to attack people who don’t support what Elon Musk has done with the Twitter media platform.

“Most people can’t stand up for their convictions, because the majority of people might not be doing it. See, everybody’s not doing it, so it must be wrong. And since everybody is doing it, it must be right. So a sort of numerical interpretation of what’s right. But I’m here to say to you this morning that some things are right and some things are wrong. Eternally so, absolutely so. It’s wrong to hate. It always has been wrong and it always will be wrong. It’s wrong in America, it’s wrong in Germany, it’s wrong in Russia, it’s wrong in China. It was wrong in 2000 B.C., and it’s wrong in 1954 A.D. It always has been wrong, and it always will be wrong. It’s wrong to throw our lives away in riotous living. No matter if everybody in Detroit is doing it, it’s wrong. It always will be wrong, and it always has been wrong. It’s wrong in every age and it’s wrong in every nation. Some things are right and some things are wrong, no matter if everybody is doing the contrary.” - Dr. Martin Luther King Jr, 1954
