Global outage on fetching posts. Funny enough, some features are still working as evidenced by the fact #TwitterDown is trending.
Two HN threads about this now, looking forward to some excellent takes

Before twitter went down Musk was agreeing with people saying that the left is letting in illegals so they get more left wing votes (illegals can vote or something). So yeah going well.

Recently, a sign showed up in El Paso advertising San Francisco as a sanctuary city, as a great “own the libs,” I suppose because SF would receive of applicants overwhelming their social service programs?
It didn’t work.
conservatives are absolutely convinced that secretly, everyone views outgroups as filthy rats, like they do. there’s a kernel of truth in that a lot more people think that way than will admit it, but conservatives usually aren’t referring to that as an observed tendency. they’re referring to a universal law they’ve made up, that anyone who claims to hold liberal or leftist democratic values is lying
apologies for overexplaining something you already know. point is I doubt they even considered whether it would actually get people to go to SF. they just wanted to fantasize about Liberals MELTING DOWN upon hearing about the sign (because of course libs secretly think people in El Paso are like rats)
