It’s live! Elon Musk has broken the stranglehold in his first week, and now regular people will have access to the hallowed hall of Blue Checkdom, to the absolute burning whining AGONY of the pompous, elitist left, especially the ones who pretend to be journalists.
I cannot stop laughing at their pain. I’m going to get a hernia y’all.
The new service is ready and raring to go, and Disclose posted the description in a tweet, of course. It includes the slogan “power to the people.” But honestly I would also have accepted “power away from the jerks.”

The Very Importants are so super mad about it they’re fleeing to an alternative service called Mastodon that none of them can figure out how to use! Their pain sustains me.
Elon's $8/month check mark is a tax on journalism.

Everyone:
Stop calling the blue check mark "verified." It no longer means that. All it means is you bought something. pic.twitter.com/kUbcnQpIuh— Peter Gleick 🇺🇸 (@PeterGleick) November 5, 2022
Here is the truth of course:
These blue checks aren’t mad that @elonmusk is going to charge them $8 for a badge.
They’re really just mad that you can get one too.
There’s a dirty little secret about the checks.

The first week and it’s already pure hell for the elitist swamp Democrat MSM jerks.
I would pay $8 to watch THAT, I don’t even care about a badge.
I’m still cherishing this one from the other day, to be honest.
$20 a month to keep my blue check? Fuck that, they should pay me. If that gets instituted, I’m gone like Enron.
