Two directions this can go-

1)Improvement of the current censorship situation
2)Things get alot worse

in the case of 2, i see the opportunity to pull even more people off of twitter due to backlash

TBH I am okay with wither one.

Here is the new CEO

Kind of terrified what happens to Twitter once Jack is gone; he basically is the one lone sane man holding back the (staff) woke mob, as far as I can tell. We need an alternative ASAP.

This is my sentiment. Better the devil you know...

This is false. I have met him personally multiple times, both in an office setting and a "function/event" setting.

Guy is the epitome of a POS. I will take Zuck (never met) over Jack anyday. Guy had a vendetta. I am shocked he is stepping down.

EDIT:
And late to the thread. Agrawal will be more left than Jack. Yikes.

Wow, on those Parag quotes.

1984 it is then.

He's still on the BOD.

Only a matter of time before Twitter conducts a massive purge of anything that is not fully Marxist-Leninist.

Yes, if only someone would try that.

• Parler (basically defunct after Amazon helped out Twitter and Facebook by kicking them off AWS)
• Minds (very good, could use more users)
• Gab (haven't used it myself, but it has a sizeable following

There are alternatives. People just need to actually use them.

Anything that happens over the next few weeks im gonna assume is related to the Gislaine Maxwell trial.

Yeah, that is one of the thoughts I had...

No way he stepped down just like that... Something is the background here, who knows if we'll ever actually find out.

He had a little too much fun at Pedo island?

Is Trump still starting his own social media platform? He already had the funding. He realistically would be the only platform that could compete with Twitter.

I am guessing Jack wants to focus on Square and the transition to the Bitcoin standard of money.

Oh yeah, Parag was all up in project bluesky which is basically a means to find better way to manage 'misinformation'.

Gab actually with the vision to create a parallel economy which I'm on board with. Obviously audacious but glad someone is taking the lead.

No idea, but that doesn't change the fact that there are already alternatives.

I doubt he is sane.

What is needed isn't another CEO leading twitter, what is needed is an alternative to twitter that doesn't condone and actively censor alternative viewpoints, whether they be political, scientific, social or philosophical.

Twitter is nothing more than a totalitarian organization which suppresses free speech and actively promotes canceling opposing thoughts and destroying people's lives.

This is the guy who's replacing Jack as CEO?

No it's not. Keef...it is very different. That is like saying steamy low budget romance novels (porn for old washed up women) are the same as History books or biographies.

There is no difference other than religion./

Change my mind.

no it is not.

they have been following that since before Trump was elected.

He is just stating the obvious.

I'm telling you... the masses at Twitter would silence most conservative voices if given the opportunity.

Let's see what happens.

So, yea... Jack was a leftist, but he might've been the least bad option.

Twitter's biggest stakeholder is a RNC/Trump supporter.

Who?

Twitter serves 2 primary and, in my view, unnecessary functions.

1) It's a platform for "breaking" news by people I've likely never heard of in a format that is largely unreadable when it takes 25 sequentially numbered tweets to get the story out.

2) Free advertising platform for wannabe porn stars pimping their OnlyFans.

He's referring to Paul Singer, which is silly. Paul Singer cares about his return on investment first, and his main contributions to the RNC promote cheap labor, oligarchial vertical integration, and Middle East entanglement. Also, he despises Trump.

For comparison sake, if i look at twitter... I am more leery that the Joker's lieutenants may be even more insane and less stable than he is.

Just because you remove the head from the snake doesn't mean the remaining parts without the figurehead aren't far more despicable.

A trip down memory lane.

Muslims are massively racist.

I encourage anyone that hasn't seen thi watch it when you have a couple hours to burn. Jack Dorsey stepping down i simply symbolic. Dorsey has no clue what goes on in the Twitter day to day. He stays whacked out on peyote and whatever else he chooses all day just lives off his massive wealth.

This broad radical left Vijaya Gadde pretty much runs the show and agenda at Twitter, now combined with this other far left radical Parag Agrawal Twitter iwill be more of the same possibly worse.

Twitter and FaceBook both claim they welcome more government regulation but that's just deflection and smoke because they know they payoff enough senior leader in congress that it will never happen. WHen power shifts they will shift the money. They know Liz Warren is all bark and no bite.

From bad to worse. This POS represents the worst of Immigration. You let these ****ers in and the rise to the heights of the country and live better than 99% of natives. They have nothing but hate for the country and the majority of its people. I would revoke this ****ers citizenship in a mili second. I believe mass immigration will be the death of this country !!! The land , rivers, and mountains will always be here. But when it looks more like lagos nigeria and mexico city with a heavy dose of Sharia than with the culture that made it great. Then there it is no longer an America. Trajic

The name alludes to Spiral's focus, Bitcoin, as it continues to grow "like a spiral from a single point, encompassing more and more space until it touches everything," Square tweeted.
...
Spiral and TBD are two initiatives under the Block's umbrella that focus entirely on Bitcoin. While Spiral is dedicated to building and funding "open-source projects aimed at making bitcoin the planet's preferred currency," TBD is currently focused on developing a decentralized bitcoin exchange.
