If people hadn’t left already after Musk’s takeover they are never going to leave.

Soon after Good was killed, people on X began using Grok, the platform’s built-in AI chatbot, to edit images of her dead body into a bikini.

I hope these people *re-reads all-caps email from attorney* stub all 10 of their toes, every single day, for the rest of their lives.

Because they like the flavor of the boot they are licking. They see themselves as the winners in this war, and are backing someone else who they see as a winner.

The dehumanisation, alongside the nazi virtue signaling, is a feature, not a bug.

Maybe if we tell grok to change enough brand CEOs into tiny transparent micro bikinis or generate sexual material from their advertisement images, they're going to get the fuck out of there.

This is exactly what needs to happen. These people are too fucking dense, or just immoral, to do anything unless it personally effects them.

You'd need so many people to actively be using Twitter to make a difference, that they would still stay due to the increased userbase.

Because they don't care.

Didn’t advertisers get sued into… having to give musk their money?

I don't believe those actually resulted in rulings in Musk's favor. GARM (the org he accused of being an anti-trust violation) shut down citing the legal costs of the case, and afaik the case against the constituent companies is still ongoing, but unlikely to end in his favor. It's purely a SLAPP lawsuit.

Right. As though this is the only sex-abuse crisis we're going through.
