    An entitled racist piece of shit coward doesn’t like negativity directed toward him, on the platform he bought so he could be an entitled racist piece of shit coward.

    Imagine that.

    Why anyone still has an account on that embarrassing shithole of a social media platform is beyond me. And why a journalist is dumb enough to to find it “surreal” that this happened in the first place, is equally baffling.

    I wouldn’t call it “surreal” at all, I’d call it “completely expected” given who runs that platform

    Llama still inhabiting former llama enclosure (recently and very publicly converted to a tiger pen) confused by strange occurrence of tiger bites.

      He absolutely can. But that doesn’t make him immune to ridicule and judgement for being a cowardly racist piece of shit.

        100% agree. I just find it utterly hypocritical that he proclaimed himself at “a free-speech absolutionist” and cries like a little baby the moment someone says something bad about him.

    I just wish that a free-speech-absolutist-billionaire would buy the platform so things like this wouldn’t happen anymore. He could even rename it something cool (like ‘Y’ or ‘Z’) to get some street-cred with edgy middleschoolers…
