Isn't that just a hate site? Idunno what kinda reason anyone's expecting but if one comes I doubt it'll even be amusing.
kiwi farms has murdered multiple people by tormenting them until they commit suicide. The worst that happened to them was a few small governments blocked them and cloudflare decided they were going to skip on a bill and dropped them. And then a different CDN supported them
twitter is still used by countless brands and influencers. And it has a large userbase of people who "won't let elon win" or "understand that brands can't abandon the site". So elon et al could actively start beheading people on camera and nothing would happen.
Yuuuuuup.
twitter walks back misgendering policy...
Hey! No deadnaming...
How could it be a deadname? The website is still twitter.com.
It doesn't mind! ... Unless required by local laws!
It will always be twitter for me. Maaaybe xtwitter.

As with so much of what happens at X, there is significant confusion about the policy as the company’s rules seem to change based on the whims of Musk rather than a considered process.
Here is what I assume happend:
Elon, desperate for approval from his "fans" personally changed this, because almost all the people left on twitter that engage with him are "right-wingers". And they dont want to be held accountable for being vile garbage.
And so they, like the most fragile of snowflakes, started to whine about having to follow basic rules of human decency for once in their online existence, making them deeply uncomfortable.
And Elon followed suit, because these are the only people he has left now. People who exploit him for his position and clout, just as he exploits them for small ammounts of dopamine, when they applaud him for making the worls worse again.
I've noticed that healthy people get upset at being wrongly accused. The most vile and guilty get violently and angry at being tightly called out for being exactly what they are.
Elone Musk walks back...
Bullies getting bullied. We have opened the gates of hell, and the meek can stand up and defend themselves or continue to be fodder for the machine Defense is not offense.
