      Yes, let that stop you from watching an informative video to explain why Twitter isn’t actually hemorrhaging users like they should be.

          What’s the problem with Adam Conover? Too left wing for you? His being a spokesperson for the strike too pro-labor? His suggestion in the video for a government-regulated Twitter too unfair to Elon? Just curious.

            A lot of the things he’s “ruined” have been proven to be false or just using made up facts. And before you make any assumptions, I too am left wing and pro labor. But this guy is just a presenter and should not be elevated higher than such.

            Sounds like he can’t puzzle out how to pick a Mastodon server and sign up, which really makes me question his dedication to knowing what the heck he’s talking about.

            Good lord you sound like such a stuck up pretentious little fuck. You’re on an anti-Elon Musk community but you have the same exact energy as him.

            Adam Conover is a former TV host/YouTuber who has tried to prop himself up as intellectual despite the fact that all of his “intelligence” came from… actually intelligent writers and researchers. Every time he’s spoken candidly he makes a fool of himself, yet his name is still plastered on every bit of content he involves himself in.

            For more concrete reasons, I don’t generally like cis white men who try to explain to a trans person that they are describing the trans experience wrong. Or when people go on the Joe Rogan podcast and let themselves get caught off guard so much that they end up making the right’s arguments for them.

            Adam Conover: “No, giving hormones treatments to children or young teens isn’t usually a good idea.”
