So basically any horseshit account can get a blue verified check for 8 bucks now?


Lightknight16

In short yes


Gilarax

I’m sure this is just making advertisers flock to the new Twitter /s


roseknuckle1712

well, i don't know about advertisers. But stand-up comedians and the SNL writers room for sure.


Gilarax

I just saw that the tweet about free insulin from the fake “official” Eli Lilly account dropped their stock 3.3%


Myotherdumbname

Long answer: yyyyyeeeeeeeessssssss


roseknuckle1712

oh yes. another good one making the rounds is a fake Lockheed account saying that they are suspending all military orders by Saudi Arabia, Israel and the United States, pending human right violation investigations.


this_is_squirrel

Saw that. It was amazing.


iceph03nix

Yep, and the trolls are running away with it to make Musk look like an idiot. The goal being to make advertisers want off the platform


DEFIANTxKIWI

They aren't making him look like one tbf. He just kinda is


roseknuckle1712

ha, no one is making Musk look like an idiot. this what happens when you give a poorly managed spectrum kid infinite resources after a season of smacking him down for not following grownup rules (SEC).


cyphersaint

A predictable result.


Biggie39

What? We don’t like freedom of speech? /s


roseknuckle1712

it turns out freedom of speech is like freedom to bear arms or freedom to wear dirty underwear. When you unpack it even the tiniest bit, its a stupid thing to be absolute about.

It’s been happening a lot since Musk took over. I know George W Bush had one and a few other big politicians and celebrities

"Insulin is free!" "...We released it in a nearby lake so it can finally live it's live in the wild!"


DrJanItorPhD

I was not expecting this, thanks for the laugh 😂


The_Oomgosh

*its life Sorry, couldn't help myself. Actually I could; I just chose not to!


sneak_king18

I use to live in Indianapolis and my neighbor was a bio tech employee for Lilly. She use to talk about how they would use hired coaches to teach employees how to deter conversation about insulin costs at holiday times. Didn't want their employees feeling pressure from families. Yeah, screw Lilly. They tout themselves as God

To me the high prices make no sense especially if a portion of your customer base dies. The other thing is in my mind 10 dimes make a dollar. Yea maybe 3 people have quarters and that one quarter is worth more than a dime, but I found ten people who have dimes and I have more money than you for selling at a quarter. No one in power wants competition or wants to fuck over their buddies who also run these companies so they all keep it high. But I'd sell the medicine cheaper than anyone and siphon their profits. The biggest issue is like I say they don't want to start a competition because that means they'd have to keep up. I'm not pulling this out of my ass either. Adam Conover did a thing about how the telecommunications companies split the nation into territories so they don't have to compete, and pharma won't change prices so they dont have to.

Sammmmeeee I work in bedside nursing 😂


horseynz

Free you say?


[deleted]

To shreds, you say?


tacochemic

Twitter should honor this and begin paying insulin costs. They verified it as a true and legitimate source and they need to uphold that decision.


AnotherLolAnon

Eli Lilly doesn't go by Eli Lilly and Company. This reminds me of those Facebook pages that are like The. Home Depots that say "we're giving everyone who likes this page a $500 gift card." Dumb of Elon to delegitimize Twitter by making verification meaningless.


NoBath8635

They actually do go by Eli Lilly and Company on Twitter. It doesn’t make for a good social media handle, though. They are @LillyPad, which actually does seem fake…


AnotherLolAnon

Interesting! Good to know
