Free speech

I specifically disagree with his stance on free speech, because I think that it depends on your interpretation of what free speech means. If you allow the most intolerant voices to be as loud as they want to, you’re going to shut down voices of different opinions as well. So allowing free speech by just allowing all speech is not actually leading to free speech, it just leads to a cesspit of hate.

Heads we win, tails he loses

Regardless of what happens to Twitter, Elon Musk is without a doubt the most interesting man in the world right now. He's positioned himself at the intersection of so many trends and topics that it's hard to keep count, and through it all, he's tweeting memes. It's the greatest show on earth, no work of fiction could ever hope to compete.

It's also incredibly divisive. Not since Trump has a single character managed to invoke such extreme levels of love and hate on the world stage for weeks at the time. Nor has anyone been able to play the media like a fiddle with such virtuosity.

Might be old, but still made me laugh. ;)

Blog Updates

As you might have noticed, I added some new features.

I’ve been playing around with some plugins.

There’s now a Twitter widget, a simple calendar widget (with links on dates where I posted something), and ‘recent comments’ (not that there are any comments, but I’ve added it).

I had to do some small modifications in my theme, as it wasn’t supporting dynamic widgets, but here it is. Seems to be working fine!
