Found an interesting take and wanted to get Manifolders' opinions on it, but couldn't because it wasn't a tweet? Now you can!

 for quotes that don't come from Twitter. Submit as your answer any "controversial" post, quote or meme from any source 

 Twitter/X. "Controversial" just means it should be something that people might disagree with, not that there is some active controversy around it. The originator of the quote can be anyone - it doesn't have to be a well-known person or public figure - as long as you respect people's privacy (e.g., don't post something that someone said in private and might be embarrassing without their permission). It is also acceptable to add quotes from Twitter in a few limited circumstances - namely, if the original market closes permanently, if the tweet has been deleted, or if a certain category of tweets are banned from the original market.

All answers should either include a full quote with attribution (if the attribution is known), or a description of the quote with a link to the full quote. Quotes that are from online posts should link to the post.

As with the original market, you can vote by buying YES shares (to indicate that you think it's a good take) or NO shares (bad take). The number of shares doesn't matter, so you are free to profit by buying more shares of opinions you think others will share and fewer shares of opinions you think will be outvoted, but please vote in good faith! 

Every time the market closes, I will resolve options that have been voted as good takes by a clear majority to YES, and those that have been voted as bad takes to NO. Ones that are close, such that the winner looks like it may change as new votes roll in, will remain unresolved. Then I will reopen the market for another week. I will disregard votes from bots.
