"Fuck". The word is "fuck", kids.

This is not US cable TV, you can use all the words.

Nick Anderson probably intended to have that cartoon published to a broad audience. So yeah, basically cable.

FTFY

Self-censorship is something that really gets on my nerves these days too.

Actually I think it's Fork

I'm honestly quite proud of musk. Taking something he cares for more than money itself and destroying it for the betterment of all people.

[–] TigrisMorte@kbin.social 7 points 11 months ago

intent is important, but results are more so.

[–] _danny@lemmy.world 19 points 11 months ago

Even pre-musk, that is pretty on brand.

Lord, what's the idiot child done now

[–] NatakuNox@lemmy.world 21 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Figuratively, "he shit in the mouth of the hand that feeds him."

[–] Taleya@aussie.zone 10 points 11 months ago

Standard operating procedure for him, really

[–] Darkassassin07@lemmy.ca 11 points 11 months ago

Quite literally told all the advertisers that left the platform to go fuck themselves.

@Taleya @kpw It's sad I knew who you were talking about.

I thought any of Musk's corporation taglines would be the same as their response to press inquires: "💩"

[–] theodewere@kbin.social 6 points 11 months ago

that's been their response to legal and official government inquiries so far as well pretty much

If it actually was the tagline for X, that would be something genuinely funny Elon did.

As it is, he's incapable of being funny on purpose, so

Carl’s Jr. - “Fuck you! I’m eating.”

[–] mateomaui@reddthat.com 7 points 11 months ago

Seems on brand for “X” anyway. Only surprising it took this long to drop.

[–] Vant@lemm.ee 7 points 11 months ago

It was nice of him to change twitters name before he completely wrecked it's reputation. He might be able to sell it for a fraction of what he paid in a year or two.

[–] Osa-Eris-Xero512@kbin.social 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Honestly, if you didn't know the context, this would be pretty good as a corporate tagline.

[–] ohlaph@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

It's that, isn't it?

[–] Pratai@lemmy.ca 3 points 11 months ago

Is there a realistic ETA on when that shithole of a social media platform shuts down?

[–] Newguy@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

This is amazing

They better watch out or they'll catch a case from the Washington Redskins
