How can Iran, or anybody, possibly reach an agreement with Trump?
1. Trump lies about everything all the time. He is unable to provide relevant accurate information. he cannot negotiate.
2. Trump complains that anybody he wants to lead Iran is being killed, read: is being killed by Israel,... /1
![So, Twitter has moved on from "nothing good would come from [it]" to allowing paying users to generate non-consensual sexualised imagery of women and children. And yet, your respective parties continue to use it. I don't know if you guys use it, as I don't darken its door, but I hope you don't. This feature of Twitter is not something that is being abused, as an Taoiseach suggested. This feature is designed to be used in exactly this way. Your parties' continued use of twitter cannot be construed as anything less than acceptance of this feature. Some might even construe it as an endorsement. I would like not to think that, but the statements I have read from both an Taoiseach and an Tánaiste leave me wondering.
My message to you and your parties is simple: stop using Twitter altogether. I can imagine that there are some legal challenges in the approach of investigating and prosecuting twitter for this heinous service such that a resolution will be months or years away. That's fine: I support the notion of "due process" without any quibble. But your parties' use of Twitter is not a legal matter. There is no legal reason to continue using it.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:23mysztmt7dh3l5lzhinzafi/bafkreigkmqtdmjj7mkxqwdwv3tejtpwa6kpngrslti4f3hdo4aar37nkhm)
![If political parties, news organisations and other commercial operations stopped using Twitter altogether, it would collapse down to something like Gab or Truth Social, and I would guess (nay, hope!) you guys have no problem staying away from those services.
Finally, if you're tempted to reply to me with some lines asserting that twitter is socially important, or that it's necessary to remain there for the sake of the followers, I request you not to do so. It would be a waste of my time and yours, as I don't accept either premise.
