Will they ever stop saying X, formerly known as Twitter

Featured Replies

I don't know about you guys, but I get really annoyed when I see them say this was posted on X "formerly known as Twitter". How many years are they going to continue to say formerly known as Twitter?

 

Isn't that a bit ridiculous? Isn't it redundant at this point? Did Musk change the name just to cause confusion?

No. He did it to save democracy after left wing nutjobs at Twitter in cahoots with the corrupt and immoral democrats used it to censor conservatives to allow false democrat narratives to gain traction. 

Case in point, the banning of Trump after he urged people to be peaceful on J6. How did that end? Dorsey out Trump in. Lovely🤣

I think we should apply the same naming convention to other platforms ...

 

"I searched on Google, formally known as Backrub ....."

 

"I posted on Facebook, formally known as TheFacebook .... "

 

"I saw your holiday snaps on Instagram, formally known as Burbn"

See recent news about Youtube   allowing Alex Jones (and others) back on the platform.

Wasn't it the artist formerly known as "Prince"

who started the fashion ?

I call it "formerly known as".

 

Me: "Did any of you see that meme on formerly known as?"

I'm hoping the often seen text 'former president trump' soon will be correct.

This is all done by the AI that almost everybody is using to write the text. 

AI is not as smart as everybody seems to think. 'former president trump' is an example. But the problems seems to be that no human reads the AI text to correct it.
