As a reminder for folks here talking about Trump, Musk, or other MAGA folk: Please don't use cute nicknames ("musky", "space karen", "cheeto", Drumpf, T***p, etc). There aren't algorithms to manipulate, and all the use of nicknames does is bypass individual people's filters who are trying to manage their own experience.

And speaking of, amusingly, my own filters are going to make this post invisible to me.

@valhalla I don’t like it. You are just saying: because computers are dumb we must adapt. to them. Lets improve the filters, not reducing the creativity.

@cate @Jonobie there is a limit to how the filters can be improved to recognise that e.g. Space Karen refers to Space Dilbert refers to Elon Musk and still allow people to be creative in creating new nicknames.

Mentioning those people by name at least once in the post doesn't prevent one from using creative nicknames elsewhere, and easily solves the problem.
