....what are you talking about? Most people have blackballed Vince.

And what is this about censorship? we are not suggesting not banning information coming from twitter. We are proposing switching it to screenshots as to not give twitter traffic.

Are people not understanding the poll? Do I need to rephrase it as to better explain the purpose? I can if it will help

If it was ok to post Twitter links before, I think it is improper to change the policy just because the owner hurt your feelings.

jesus christ dude it's not about my feelings. the dude is doing nazi salutes on live tv, in bed with fascist in germany and influencing elections. he also pushes things like Trans people don't exist.

Don't be an asshole and reduce it to this kind of crap, that's not an intelligent way to discuss things.

There is a difference between "hurting people's feelings" than literally doing the Nazi salute.

also ''it was ok before'' is not a valid argument, facts change and people are allowed to change their minds about things as new facts are shown to them. The heck some of you even on about? At least make sense in your reasoning.

Musk: *Does the Nazi Salute, three times, clear as day, crystal as crystal meth, as blunt as an atom bomb, no doubt about it*

People who lack critical thinking: "Why you all got your feelings hurt!? That's censorship!"

I should have known it would devolve to this because the deplorable people that partake just can't not douches about it and they just have to troll and do their best to get under people's skin. What a sad existence it must be to take so much pleasure in other people's pain

I changed the title of the thread because I think people are outright missing the point of what the discussion is actually about.

Also to the people saying no because convenience issues, it was already stated in the thread earlier, but I'd just like to reiterate:

You are saying that your convenience is more important than saying no to Nazis, or standing up and siding with your fellow LGBTQ friends/users.

You aren't an ally in this case. You have never been.

I finally deleted my Twitter account yesterday (been meaning to do so for awhile), so I'm all for it even if it doesn't really effect me. Musk is a disgusting human being and anything to hurt his wallet works for me.

Bluesky is so much better anyway.

Went ahead and threw my vote behind the option that's going to win. Ultimately, I still don't see it as some moral high ground (allowing screenshots vs. embedding tweets), but it doesn't impact me all that much.

I’m going to be honest with you, I don’t think there’s gonna be an official forum policy regarding this. I think considering there is 15 or so of you voting for Screenshots if y’all voluntarily decided to just do that you should be cutting down on the issue that you’re trying to affect anyways.

What I will try to do for you guys though is I’m gonna look into how to get blue sky to embed so that way you can post more of those instead of just the links and hopefully more wrestlers and promotions will actually post to it so we don’t have to try to pull from X anymore because at the time being obviously X is where most of those people tend to post their stuff.

I’ll also see about making a blue sky for WS tonight.

Sorry guys I tried but just like in America, the owners are just gonna do what they want because it's all about the money.

Once again disappointed by the constant cowardice of this place. You fucking suck. You're part of the problem.

Twitter embeds are now outlawed.
