It's not as if it's not easy for anyone to distinguish between X posts that are individual opinions and those that are news articles that you can dig deeper into. And guardrails? 😂 You're talking about guardrails as if the legacy media didn't nuke those same guardrails, grind them up and spit on it's grave. Why do you think that is? I post how cool I am. Then I post my moms X account that says I'm cool. I do that 4-5 time a day in every thread. Why would anybody come here for decent conversations or to discuss actual events? You keep minimizing this place saying nobody comes here and it's a cesspool. Yet don't see the connection with your behavior and why this place only has 12 posters and is a cesspool. 1 1

This back and forth discussion is working so great. You've listened and responded to my point with great attention to detail. Productive! I don't know how I can be any clearer. But maybe I can create an X account and then post my thoughts in a tweet and then link here since you seem to pay close attention to those. Your gripes have been the same gripes but with a different flavor since the dawn of PPP. It's never going to change. It has absolutely zero to do with X posts. As I stated in my first response to you, you are more than welcome to leave if you don't like it. Or you can stay and be the change man. It will work! As to why there are only about 12 regular posters here now? Ask the 25 or so who left about five years ago to create their own board. 1

If that's just what this place will always be so be it. It is a slight annoyance in this section compared to TSW with the overabundance of tweets. Maybe one of our 10 embedded tweets are informative and I usually just skip by them. This place would be better if you had like a two embedded tweet/article link quota per user a day. Use your tweets wisely. Although a guy with a shirt off with the X handle @zerohedge could be the next Woodward and Berstein for all we know. Edited June 7 by Doc Brown

Aren't people supposed to actually post original thoughts or have discussions vs just bombing each subject with reposted content from other places? This is why - and it’s why Musk had to exit DC - specifically Trump. Musk posted both of these today. He knows exactly what he’s doing. Unfortunately, they will not stop coming for X. Because liberals are sick people. 1 1

What does this have to do with 3-4 users spamming every thread with some random persons random thoughts? What is the purpose of doing it? Most of the spam never gets responded to. It’s just post after post of it. I’m not sure I can identify with the motivation here. It would be weird to me to post dozens of times a day with 90% of it never getting a response and do it day after day after day. Edited June 7 by Mikie2times 1

I guess I am if I'm expected to understand why somebody would repost news from X 20-30 times a day with most of it never getting so much as a thanks or discussion. It doesn't make sense. That is why I'm asking what motivates you to do it? But you won't answer. Help me to understand why this is so important to you. Edited June 7 by Mikie2times

Those sites aren't good enough for you? You have to select what things you enjoy and post them here 20-30 times a day even though nobody engages with it? I have this visual of a person with a megaphone yelling headlines over and over everyday, every 20 minutes, while the entire world just keep passing by never having heard any of it. Yet this person just keeps going. You don't find this behavior unusual? Edited June 7 by Mikie2times
