Elon Musk’s Twitter (X) is better than ever, and the primary reason why this site smears X/Elon so frequently is that Double-M is an agent of a wannabe-rival, BlueSky.

It’s obvious you don’t read actual news.
Regardless, you have to have a pretty worthless life if you think stumping for a billionaire who doesn’t even know who you are is something you find fulfilling. Talk about being a brainless fanatic.
