Here is an article on Musk's "citizen journalists" regarding the Israeli/Hamas conflict. Most of the accounts mentioned in the article are frequently posted in the DT.
QuoteSince the first news of the attack on Israel by Hamas, we have seen anecdotal reports from users of X (formerly Twitter) that the platform has become less useful for surfacing verified news and more generally disorienting. Through a novel data collection process we identify highly influential accounts in the Hamas/Israel discourse on X that comprise the most dominant English-language news sources on Twitter for the event. In this Center for an Informed Public rapid research report, we compare these accounts to traditional news sources and find on average they have far fewer subscribers while achieving far greater views, are of more recent popularity, and show a greater posting frequency. Most of the accounts also use video and images frequently, framed in emotional ways. Strikingly, many of these accounts have received prior promotion from X owner Elon Musk, either through direct recommendation or through Musk’s account replying to their content, which may explain some of their dominance of “news twitter.”

no. defending the rape of political opponents by religious figures are you? We know you pay young women to be with you so it makes sense...
Whatever you say. I genuinely hope things get better for you. I'd give you a hug right now and tell you it's going to be okay because it will. You're a crazy fucker but nobody deserves to live with this kind of chaos in their mind.
Seriously, I have no ill will towards you and hope things get better for you.

They kinda dropped the ball with John Adams. Instead of a dour puritan New Englander they ended up with Francis from Pee Wee's Big Adventure.

That would be very unliberal of you. Jesus Christ is the reason we got into the Middle East. Also, they helped the Nazis and white Brazil and Argentina thank the Catholic church (the most corrupt organization to ever exist) as their medium. Didnt see that coming did you.
Also, how the fuck is a brown middle eastern jew who was murdered by a dead empire going to fucking help me. Again, you paid 18 years off websites old to fuck you. Why are you trying to give me advice?
Molested by a Catholic priest were you? That explains some things.

I know it is hard when your little liberal safe space has someone that doesnt agree with you little cuck coward.
Have you ever considered accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior?

Can't believe I'm saying this, but too smart to be immortal. He wouldn't even bother pretending to know what "pysop" means as his right wing media word of the day.
That's what I was thinking. Immortal was less coherent, more deranged and dumber.
I think this is a poster that had too much to drink got rejected by the wife and needs to express their hate. Either way, they are a fucked up individual.

Hopefully not.
That guy should have been committed already instead of being allowed to roam around freely in public.

You’ll never convince that this isn’t immamac using an alt to fill up a thread like fark.com used to do. Although…I guess it could be a Dallas based chiropractor or banking vp.
There's a 25% chance it's J Sack.

I believe this is called “flooding the zone”.
They are probably Israeli A.I. Hasbara bots. Unfortunately, these bots were trained by being feed alcohol fueled late night CR posts.
Or it's just the former alcoholic Surly posters that were banned after downing a bottle of Cutty Sark and going on a rampage.
Either this is rooted in mental illness and alcoholism.

I think we need to be cautious with some of these Tweets, especially if they're not coming from actual journalists. For example, the reports from UCLA are that the cops had erected a barrier between pro-Israel and pro-Palestine protestors had been breached but it was unsure who broke through it first. The report also stated there were clashes between the two groups.
This short clip shows a girl who was hurt and people are trying to help her. We don't actually know how she was hurt, only that "Collin Rugg" says she was beaten up by a group. It might be true, but it might also be total bullshit that it happened in the way that Collin Rugg says it happened. Well, who the hell is Collin Rugg and why should we believe him?
Having never heard of him, I go to his Twitter page and see a long list of extremely lopsided and political tweets from a very conservative angle. He also claims to be the Co-Owner of Trending Politics and there's a fucking cybertruck on his profile page. I'm sorry, but at this point, you start to lose a lot of fucking credibility as a news source.
Let's take a visit to this "media personality's" website. It's a bunch of bullshit "articles" making a lot of very dubious claims.
So, please, let's try to stick with credible news sources or clips that fully show what's going on.
Collin Rugg is a propagandist "citizen journalist" on Twitter. He's basically a popular shit poster that gets boosted by Elon doing the "interesting" thing.

How many of the previous on campus Pro-Palestine protests (which seemed to have been no issue at all) have hundreds of non-students attending?(also making up the majority of the arrests)
Their presence in large numbers would seem to be at least some evidence this was different.
There were previous protests on campus, at other UT system schools, at aggy and aggy system schools, TTU, TXST, Coog high, Rice and other universities. The only thing that stands out that was different was DPS marching on to campus.

I guess the White House isn’t down with these campus occupiers nor their bullshit either. Hmmm….🤔
I wonder if this is why the protesters are also protesting U.S. military aid and the U.S. diplomatic stance for Israel that is being directed by the White House.

If you want smart and impressive, visit the service academies, Cal Tech/MIT, Chicago, a few liberal arts and great books schools you’ve never heard of, and the honors programs of just about any large public school.
So, not tamu.

That's what we said. Just drank our way through it but the next morning sucked. Made a run into Bandera for supplies the next day.

The bolded QFT. Because 18-22 yr olds are not the best complex thinkers. And the males among them are among the simplest of thinkers.
Truth. One time I went on a last second camping trip with a group of buddies and once we were all setup on the Medina river we started slamming beers and shit talking. It was hours before we realized all of the ice chests were filled with beer. Nobody brought water or food, just beer.

That Palestinian chicken episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm story goes back to the Seinfeld days. Fortunately, it ended up on Curb and not Seinfeld and became a classic.
