@Rodsplace This is the problem with what is allegedly Musk’s plan. As I said, it is classist. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
@Digory29 There are several memes that have *variations* in the library, rather than duplicates — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
(PS4) As soon as anonymous trolls are verified, it makes verification meaningless and worthless—creating a vicious circle in which folks don’t want to pay for it *and* don’t think it means anything. For Musk/Twitter that’s the worst of both worlds. He hasn’t thought this through. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
(PS3) My personal view is that Twitter should all along have been verifying many, *many* more people than it has been—but *also* that making verification something one can pay for is a horrifically bad idea that could actually risk destroying the platform in the medium/long term. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
(PS2) So I wouldn’t see any new verification policy as being an *endpoint* but rather a *starting point* for the future monetization drive at Twitter I just wrote about exhaustively at RETRO. That said, I’m sure Musk also sees making verification purchasable a democratizing move. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
(PS) Those of us who have paid-subscription substacks will not need or want to use Super Follows also, but for those whose Twitter feeds are in no way whatsoever (either directly or indirectly) revenue-generating, they may turn on Super Follows—with Twitter then demanding a cut. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
(2 of 2) Don’t get me wrong, Musk definitely wants the revenue expensive verifications would take in and the (classist) democratizing (sort of) blue checkmarks costing $240/yr would bring. But you will also see people monetizing their feeds—with Twitter getting a cut—in response. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
(1 of 2) I think folks are missing the real story behind the Verge report that says blue checks on Twitter will have to pay $20/mo to keep their checks and others can pay $20/mo to get one. The goal is to get Twitter users to use Super Follows to recoup the costs of verification. — PolitiTweet.org

(UPDATE) We’re now well over 100 memes (and #101 is a new favorite)! — PolitiTweet.org

@itsGrassKicker It’s a mystery, even to me sometimes — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
@islandgirlyme I know—it is already one hell of a meme library. And it’s still growing! 😁 — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
(PS3) As with the Ukraine meme archive—also at PROOF, also free (see link below)—I want to let everyone know my personal favorite memes so far. By number (see the archive atop this thread): 1, 2, 7, 10, 16, 23, 32, 37, 40, 45, 46, 48, 51, 55, 66, and 78. https://t.co/YUtm8tr0YR — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
(PS2) So please keep submitting high-quality election memes! You can post memes on any tweet in this feed and I’ll see them; the best ones—the acceptance rate is low because this is a very selective archive—will be adopted into the meme library and available for free to everyone. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
(PS) Even if you’re not generally a meme-user, I can promise you this meme library is one *hell* of a read—so it’s worth sharing even for those who want to window-shop memes and are not yet sure if/how to use them. And I will keep curating this library; I’m aiming for 200+ memes. — PolitiTweet.org

(🔓) PROOF UNLOCKED: A Free Archive of the Very Best Pro-Democracy Election Memes This free meme library offers 90+ curated, high-quality pro-democracy memes for use in advance of the November 8 election. More memes are added every hour. Please RETWEET. https://t.co/cpYC3QV9da — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
(UPDATE) Almost ready to open the PROOF meme library for the 2022 election! Keep the memes coming! I am carefully curating the hundreds of submissions received to pick only the very best ones. If I can, I will open the doors to the meme vault *tonight*. Stay tuned! — PolitiTweet.org

@FuzzyFriendz Perfect—this is the sort of thing I’m talking about. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
The memes can be about anything—voting, GOP authoritarianism, Dobbs, &c—as long as they’re of the highest quality possible: high-definition, not obscene, well-drawn, smart, easily understood. Check out the free Ukraine meme library at PROOF to get an idea: https://t.co/YUtm8tr0YR — PolitiTweet.org

(📢) OPEN CALL FOR MEMES: Hi all, I’d like to do a PROOF meme archive for the 2022 election in the next 48 hours if possible, in the same way I did for Ukraine (this would be free, as that one is). Could you reply to this tweet with the *highest-quality* election memes you have? — PolitiTweet.org

I’m astounded at those who act like 2022 is 2016 and an antisemitic, racist, violent, insurrectionist *lunatic* like Marjorie Taylor Greene couldn’t *possibly* be aiming at the presidency—see the article for proof she is—because it’d be “preposterous.” Wake up, for Christ’s sake! — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
Marjorie Taylor Greene has more influence in the GOP right now than either Kevin McCarthy or Mitch McConnell. If she ran for House Speaker in January—should the GOP take the House—Trump would back her over McCarthy, she’d win, and she’d be after Harris in line for the presidency. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
America in 2022 isn’t just *not* America in 2012. It’s *not* America in 2016. Trump shifted a major U.S. political party so much farther to the right in six years that if you *don’t* understand or accept that Marjorie Taylor Greene is now a GOP *leader*, you’re fooling yourself. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
I called Trump dangerous in a HuffPost report the very day he announced his candidacy. I am calling Marjorie Taylor Greene dangerous—indeed, more dangerous than Trump—just as she has been put on the Trump VP shortlist. Seriously, will we Democrats never learn our lesson or what? — PolitiTweet.org
