For a day or two? Why not? It would cripple the machinery and cost us little.

If course we should. Nobody should use that platform at all. My point was that people can't help themselves. Last time the US tried to ban it some kid burned down a congressman's office.

The Wall Street Journal is a MAGA newspaper that happens to have some good journalists.

I mean, look at what they published over the last two decades:

There's no compelling scientific argument for drastic action to 'decarbonize' the world's economy.

Climate Science is not settled

Global warming doesn't matter. Contrary to the latest news, the evidence that global warming will have serious effects is thin.

The Climate-Change Religion

President Obama wrote in his proclamation for Earth Day on Wednesday. “As a Nation, we must act before it is too late.”

Obama is wrong. There is no reason to act.

No, climate change has not caused an increase in the frequency or intensity of floods, droughts, hurricanes and tornadoes. This is a false claim.

What is the origin of the false belief — constantly repeated — that almost all scientists agree about global warming?

There is actually no scientific consensus on global warming

I'm paying subscriber of the New York Times. I also read the Financial Times.

They really never published anything close to this garbage.

In 2012, the non-profit newsroom ProPublica revealed that Justice Clarence Thomas secretly took lavish trips with Billionaires. It was a huge story

The Wall Street Journal top editor lashed out:

https://www.wsj.com/articles/clarence-thomas-supreme-court-propublica-harlan-crow-1c4c2f41

This is the first time I see the editor of a newspaper publically attacking another newsroom for publishing a huge story.

I wouldn't wipe my ass with the WSJ. They have some great reporters that will privately tell you that they are really ashamed to work there. Rupert Murdoch keeps them around because he needs some people to subscribe and pay. No one will pay money to read non-sense every day. But these great reporters usually jump ship at any good opportunity they get.

It's too bad people won't leave the platform entirely.

And I know they won't do it in numbers enough to matter - just look at Xitter - it's been, what, 3 years since fElon seized that?
