A big takeaway from the Sam Bankman Fried debacle is when a guy tells you that he is only making money to give it away from a $40 million penthouse in a tax haven country, that *might* be a clue he's not on the up & up... #SBF #FTX

Viral score

Based on absolute engagement — the platform doesn’t expose follower counts here, so large accounts score higher.

From likes, comments.

Why it worked

Uses concrete numbers instead of vague claims, which makes it credible and quotable.
Short enough to read in full without expanding, which removes a step before the point lands.

The mechanics

Hook: Plain observation
Structure: Hook
Style: Conversational paragraphs at a steady pace.
Tone: plain, matter-of-fact
Mechanisms: Specificity
Written for: Founders, marketers and operators

To lump these two factors together to create a narrative that my behavior extended beyond bad edgy jokes is disgusting and did not happen. In past years, I have learned that my old humor is not acceptable. I cannot change who I was, but I can continue to work on myself

I've tweeted this story before, but feel like it's relevant again: When I was working for NBC and they hired Megyn Kelly I publicly stated that I thought it was a huge mistake bc I believed Megyn was a racist and had made racist statements. NBC brass hauled me into an HR meeting

Over the past few weeks, we removed hundreds of channels sharing leaked exam materials and related scams in India. We’re also making the “edited” label more visible to prevent backdating scams. Telegram is a force for good. Banning it — even temporarily — is a mistake.

Yes, the EU should sanction Tucker Carlson, because he is no journalist but a leading Kremlin propagandist. The EU has rightly sanctioned a score of leading Kremlin propagandists & many Europeans for various reasons. It would be a mistake not to sanction Tucker Carlson.
