This isn't surprising BUT...do you think the little blue check marks make a difference? I think people will read and amplify crap on Twitter regardless of whether there's a blue mark there or not. The problem is less about the blue check marks and more about the general lack of moderation on Twitter. The moderation was bad before Elon took over and now, it is even worse.Haven't seen Elon respond to this...
Pro-Moscow voices tried to steer Ohio train disaster debate
Not long after the Ohio train derailment, pro-Russian voices on Twitter began spreading anti-U.S. propaganda about the incident.apnews.com
Will he just ignore it? Claim that mainstream media is just laughably wrong? Somehow amplifying Russian propaganda is okay?

twitter has just totally gone to crap. its messed up there ngl esp w elon taking over. dont use it, and ill prob only stick to reddit.
May or may not, but one of the worlds wealthiest individuals really shouldnt be talking about this is it a bad look. Like a fat guy telling an actress/model who just had a baby she should lose 10 pounds.
More and more I am starting to believe that Elon is a reactionary. We were so lucky that he reacted so something scientifically true with climate change and decided to do something about it with Tesla. Cant say the same about the last couple of years with the right and Twitter.

Correct, it's not informative or worthwhile in the least.

Reporters contacting Twitter for legal reasons are now receiving a single emoji back in their inbox. A.
Elon Musk’s Twitter now responds to all journalist requests with a single emoji
It is unclear how long the emoji-response policy to journalists will be in place at Twitter.
Sure. God doesn’t have to explain himself. Even when claiming maximal transparency.Elon Musk’s Twitter now responds to all journalist requests with a single emoji
It is unclear how long the emoji-response policy to journalists will be in place at Twitter.finance.yahoo.com
At this point Elon’s own credibility is well under that of centrist MSM and @ two notches below that of Fox.

According to Musk, those blue check marks are worth paying for.

Thanks for the compliment!
the (kind of) good news is that fewer of his comments are getting much attention. just another billionaire j$$k@@@, which we have no shortage of.
Idiots on social media: "Elon Musk's worry about population is unfounded, it's based on racism. An aging population is totally not a problem."
Meanwhile Paris is going down in flames...

TSLA will win
What about......jobs getting replaced by AI and robots anyway? Will need to increase corporate taxes or something to pay for an overall retirement of workforce. Maybe.

World population continues to increase, as does the population of France. Paris is burning because of a stupid action by Macron.
