@jeffjarvis@mastodon.social WE don't. The media does because it prioritizes content that upsets people. Elon upsets people so he moves to the front of the line. Just like Trump.
Stop consuming their content
Stop clicking their bait
Stop opining like it's adding to the conversation
Distance yourselves from these ghouls and they lose their clickable capital.

@bebadefabo@mastodon.social @jeffjarvis@mastodon.social The media version of the toxoplasma of rage. If it pisses everyone off it gets clicks, leading to more reporting and more prominence. Grifters on both sides of politics have been doing it for years, it's just this one is a trillionaire with his own social media outlet.
