Ahh, but that’s the very thing about Twitter and Social Media in general.
You pick the groups and people you like and agree with, and block anyone you don’t like. So everyone festers in the filth of their own echo chambers.
I look at Twitter, but on this site you get proper debate, we’ll debate at least. Yes, you can ignore people on here too, but I get the sense most don’t.

That's not really how I use it, if you're not annoying I don't block you and am happy to discuss most things, ends amicably enough most of the time, I only remember blocking one this year for instance, a maga nut that kept saying I was in the fbi

Think I do to, it's no good for democracy how easy it is for lies to spread and become fact on this behemoth sites, 200 people on the midterm ballots in America believe the last US election was rigged despite all the evidence to the contrary, these people shouldn't be anywhere near office, they'd be treated like the monster raving looney candidate at elections here but they've got a platform because of nonsense on sites like this being peddled as fact

While true, the mainstream media and politicians have a share of the blame.

Looks like he has fired UK staff this morning without any consultation periods or anything: https://twitter.com/MartinSFP/status...43443034046464
Musk is going to run into UK employment law.

Standard type of procedure for IT staff. Otherwise who knows what info they could steal or damage they could do.

Tell me you don’t know anything about employment law without telling me you don’t know anything about employment law.
Due to the number of redundancies being made both in the U.K. and the US there are specific processes required to be followed.
You cannot legally do what he’s done

Again, you haven't a clue what you're talking about, the WARN Act applies in the US and we have pretty much the same here.
There is or should be tooling in place to monitor, alert & restrict data exfiltration.
