Wonder how long before he gets kicked off again. Hr committed a son against the king. Lol

tyendinaga.bsky.social•1 day ago

King is correct.

Sigh… Is it return to X time now? King was my talisman for leaving there.

bryantdunbar.bsky.social•1 day ago

I think I know the answer, based on this. Hard No. https://bsky.app/profile/anthonymkreis.bsky.social/post/3liouqjca6s27

But why rejoin X if you think that? Musk is just gonna ban him.

bradbillmaier.bsky.social•1 day ago

I don't think he rejoined- he just popped back into his idled account to troll and then leave again

jodywagner.bsky.social•1 day ago

That makes more sense.

For anyone that didnt read the article, King just so happened to come back to X on the eve of some production of one of his stories. So once again, it seems, values are expendable in the face of profits. Going back to X, even for a moment, just emboldens all the other fence sitters. Disappointing.

I agree with a previous comment- preaching to the choir here. If he can lather up any followers over there against Leon then I say have at it. As far as using x to promote, his readers aren’t there

gpac.bsky.social•14 hours ago

Exactly. Readers on Twitter stick to reading a limited number of characters. A whole, entire book... That's not gonna happen.

Perhaps everyone should follow suit and see how Musk reacts, perhaps follow it with a trip to Truth, ha ha, social.

miak06.bsky.social•1 day ago

Good for him

I could never do it

And last time I was on X I had some horrible person write to me that whatever Hitler did wasn’t that bad… that was the end of it for me…

Focus on the Epstein files and Trump's post assassination attempt medical record.
Get those out to the public.

hobbesjosh.bsky.social•1 day ago

Is his account suspended yet?

veracitas.bsky.social•1 day ago

What do you call a famous, wealthy white man who stands to benefit from Trump Tax Cuts, but can still call a Traitor what he is?
I call him a Patriot.

Thank you Mr. King for not being afraid to speak the truth and to stand up to the current president and his sidekick!

Stephen King for president, he knows horror when he sees it.

auntieraeraesworld.bsky.social•1 day ago

I have loved Stephen King since I was 13. Christine was the 1st scary book I ever read. After that, I read him exclusively until I read everything he had written at the time. I still read whatever he gifts us with. He sees us for what we are, scars and all. I'm glad he is so vocal about the felon.

davidkc.bsky.social•1 day ago

Not sure what purpose that seeves.

dianaschwartz.bsky.social•1 day ago

She shouldn’t. He’s better off elsewhere but there.

yinzerred2blu.bsky.social•1 day ago

Yes he is, BUT, being here is "preaching to the choir'! Popping back in on X to slam v.p. tRUMP hits where it can hurt him the most.

dianaschwartz.bsky.social•1 day ago

True.

judithkh1951.bsky.social•1 day ago

Nailed it, Mr. King.

jazzy987.bsky.social•1 day ago

Sample of the hater directed at the legendary Stephen King for his comments on the former Twitter. You can’t make up the stupidity. Accusing a fiction writer of “making it all up.”

onyx2013.bsky.social•1 day ago

An apt description for a pair of anarchists.

evilcylon.bsky.social•17 hours ago

So basically he's saying he wasn't getting enough clout here so he's returning to Twitter to contribute to Elon's propaganda platform?

Cool story.

If only words could depose Drumpf

dean-morini.bsky.social•1 day ago

The master of horror isn’t afraid. Makes sense.

Eternally Twitter.

Stephen King is a real king
And he could not write a horror story like the one that is unfolding in the Trump presidency.

sandraeb.bsky.social•18 hours ago

Thank you Stephen

bethcokid.bsky.social•1 day ago

I got kicked off X for criticizing Trump; same for Truth Social. Suppressing the critics is UNAMERICAN!!!

avendarien.bsky.social•1 day ago

He will be a full time blue sky resident soon, if he keeps this up 😂

radicalcompliance.bsky.social•1 day ago

Oh, how I wish he had run for Senate against Susan Collins in 2018. Sigh...

shuckery.bsky.social•1 day ago

Imma go buy another one of his books for this.

ericacoffey.bsky.social•23 hours ago

Stephen is our ONLY king.

He is correct.

If you work for a US news organization and you’re not reporting the dictator Trump’s coup to overthrow us democracy, you’re not doing your job.
