“Something very interesting and openly obvious is happening amid the backlash that Elon Musk and the Silicon Valley network are facing to their H1B position.

Effective December 26, Elon Musk changed the Twitter algorithm to diminish those voices who would openly confront his network of supporters within Silicon Valley and beyond.  If large follower Twitter accounts, like those of Musk himself, David Sacks, Vivek Ramaswamy and Musks’ promoted network of influencers begin blocking accounts on the platform, then the voices of those accounts get purposefully diminished by the algorithm.

Much like having a VIP section that can remove people from the audience, Musk is pushing opposing viewpoints into the background of the public square.”

Every few days there are dire weather warnings, sadly for the fear mongers there is rarely more than a storm in a teacup. They don’t stop do they? This latest headline says it all.

Right, eight inches of snow every hour in January. That’s 8x24x31÷12=496 feet of snow. Now that’s what I call climate change, unless it’s a sloppy headline and they mean something else entirely.
