Oh yes, let's everyone stop posting links to twitter because someone disagrees with the political views of the owner. So much for having some tolerance right?

please keep this kind of rhetoric to reddit

I've wished people stopped posting links to twitter the moment twitter started requiring people to create/log into an account in order to view anything. I think the political concerns are every bit as valid as concerns over accessibility and privacy, but ultimately there are a lot of good reasons to avoid linking to twitter.

Triggered much? I’m expressing my free speech by refusing to use his neo nazi website and encouraging others to avoid it too. Why do I have to tolerate him?

In all seriousness, drawing a line once we reach Nazis is absolutely fair. That is not something to tolerate.

If you need context on this, try: https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2025/07/grok-praises-hit...

There's always someone saying, 'not yet' when others draw a line. Question is, are you going to be that someone, or are you too going to draw a line?

I left Twitter/X when Musk did that Nazi salute. I have not returned. That was a line.

The links appear to be broken today.

Perhaps X links are ephemeral?

There are some things that you should not be tolerated. Greedy, manipulative, lying bullies are one of those things.

Meanwhile supporting X and its owner is rhetoric that actually deserves to be kept not even to Reddit but to 4chan/b https://deadline.com/2025/07/elon-musks-ai-chatbot-grok-prai...
