They should join Mastodon to get away from Elon’s narcissism.
On the flip side, hopefully this news story pushes more people away from X
I can’t imagine anyone being pushed by anything if they weren’t pushed away until now
Mastodon lacks full-text search, which kills the main reason that Twitter appealed to me, the real-time-updated full-text index.
Elon Musk doesn’t have NPD. And accusing people of being disabled is not an epic burn. It’s only an insult if you think disabled people are worth less than neurotypicals. Sensible people don’t hate the disabled, so calling him a n*rcissist isn’t an insult.
Calling him neurotypical is a bigger insult. Because it implies that all of his weirdness is a choice.

They said ‘his narcissism’ They made no diagnostic qualification.
Ie. Displaying narcissism and being a narcissist and having a narcissistic personality disorder are all different things with different definitions which can be applied in different ways.
Calling him a narcissist isn’t really an insult either way. It’s just a fact about him. The dude only cares about himself.
