The tweet archive.
15 years of Elon, fully searchable. The production archive uses Supabase as the source of truth, with 94,952 indexed tweets available in development as a full-archive fallback and a curated annotation layer for context, theory, and how major claims aged.
“@ScottAdamsSays @DawgGabriel But I do think that twitter should authenticate all real users and prioritize those replies above unauthenticated users”
“@BillyM2k If Twitter can tell the difference between real and fake users, why does it allow these in our comments? https://t.co/0EuhTfaVfF”
“Even though I think a less divisive candidate would be better in 2024, I still think Trump should be restored to Twitter”
“Chronological tweets seem much better than what “the algorithm” suggests”
“@Cernovich Like I said, my preference is to hew close to the laws of countries in which Twitter operates. If the citizens want something banned, then pass a law to do so, otherwise it should be allowed.”
“@Cernovich Twitter obv has a strong left wing bias”
“@mayemusk This rumor originated from a parody account, but got picked up by real media & twitter trends (sigh)”
“If Twitter acquisition completes, company will be super focused on hardcore software engineering, design, infosec & server hardware https://t.co/m2HseK0TXl https://fortune.com/2022/05/05/elon-musk-twitter-job-interest/”
“Twitter will always be free for casual users, but maybe a slight cost for commercial/government users”
“Who funds these organizations that want to control your access to information? Let’s investigate … https://t.co/dBFsGjOMC8 https://www.cnn.com/2022/05/03/tech/twitter-letter-content-policies/index.html?utm_term=link&utm_source=twCNN&utm_content=2022-05-03T19%3A15%3A05&utm_medium=social”
“@squawksquare Also, as mentioned before, we will try to keep as many shareholders as legally possible in privately held Twitter!”
“@WholeMarsBlog There is so much potential with Twitter to be the most trusted & broadly inclusive forum in the world!”
“@BillyM2k @CoinDesk @SECGov @jackschickler Or twitter”
“@catturd2 I saw you trending as twitter ceo 🤣”
“@pmarca Sell Shadow Crew merch to buy Twitter?”
“@WholeMarsBlog The people of Twitter strongly agree that Twitter needs to be fixed”
“@TomFitton @Twitter This is messed up”
“Let’s make Twitter maximum fun!”
“Twitter DMs should have end to end encryption like Signal, so no one can spy on or hack your messages”
“@dickc What are talking about? I’m just saying Twitter needs to be politically neutral.”
“For Twitter to deserve public trust, it must be politically neutral, which effectively means upsetting the far right and the far left equally”
“@Erdayastronaut @RubinReport @nytimes @Forbes @SocialBlade Almost every media outlet on Earth wrote about me acquiring Twitter, causing a massive influx of new users”
“Truth Social (terrible name) exists because Twitter censored free speech”
“Truth Social is currently beating Twitter & TikTok on the Apple Store https://t.co/RxawVUAYKH”
“@esaagar Suspending the Twitter account of a major news organization for publishing a truthful story was obviously incredibly inappropriate”
“I hope that even my worst critics remain on Twitter, because that is what free speech means”
“shadow ban council reviewing tweet … https://t.co/cawjtwc7CW”
“If our twitter bid succeeds, we will defeat the spam bots or die trying!”
“A social media platform’s policies are good if the most extreme 10% on left and right are equally unhappy”
“@pmarca Extremely concerning. Who is pushing this censorship/deplatforming? Very shadowy.”
“@WSBChairman In fairness to the Twitter board, this might be more of a concern about other potential bidders vs just me”
“@ChrisJBakke Wow, with Jack departing, the Twitter board collectively owns almost no shares! Objectively, their economic interests are simply not aligned with shareholders.”
“@yishan My most immediate takeaway from this novella of a thread is that Twitter is *way* overdue for long form tweets!”
“@cameron If the current Twitter board takes actions contrary to shareholder interests, they would be breaching their fiduciary duty. The liability they would thereby assume would be titanic in scale.”
“@somospostpc @Alwaleed_Talal @Twitter @Kingdom_KHC 🧐”
“Taking Twitter private at $54.20 should be up to shareholders, not the board”
“@PoliticalShort @Twitter Absolutely. It would be utterly indefensible not to put this offer to a shareholder vote. They own the company, not the board of directors.”
“@Alwaleed_Talal @Twitter @Kingdom_KHC Interesting. Just two questions, if I may. How much of Twitter does the Kingdom own, directly & indirectly? What are the Kingdom’s views on journalistic freedom of speech?”
“Will endeavor to keep as many shareholders in privatized Twitter as allowed by law”
“@jspeedymorris22 @darrenrovell Now subtract crypto scam accounts that twitter constantly shows as “real” people in everyone’s feed”

“@PPathole @Erdayastronaut Yeah, single most annoying problem on twitter imo”
“@Free_Space @thesheetztweetz @AviationWeek SpaceX will do the right thing for OneWeb, even though they are a competitor”
“Is a new platform needed?”
“Given that Twitter serves as the de facto public town square, failing to adhere to free speech principles fundamentally undermines democracy. What should be done?”
“Free speech is essential to a functioning democracy. Do you believe Twitter rigorously adheres to this principle?”
“Twitter algorithm should be open source”
“@waitbutwhy I’m worried about de facto bias in “the Twitter algorithm” having a major effect on public discourse. How do we know what’s really happening?”
