The same VISA that blocks payment processing for sites that have pornography or unsavory politics. Things that are both widely available on X.

The amount of companies making super fucking clear that they don't care that Nazis are in charge, they're here to make money, is what we should have always expected.

They care more about the profits than whether the society they exist in has morals or values. If it weren't for double standards they'd have no standards at all.

slaves used to sign an X

muski loves slavery

It's not just that: for a long time you didn't sign so much as 'make your mark'. Of course, this was because so many people were completely fucking illiterate.

Being totally fucking illiterate and uneducated is the goal of the Republicans at this point, so I mean, it still tracks, just... more broadly.

Because he's a perpetual 14yo kid of 90s that never grew out of the Xtreme consumerism, and now he's having a midlife crisis for which we all must suffer.

Looks like switching from VISA to something else would be a pain in the ass.
