If Musk controls or substantively changes Twitter, I think he'll be showing the relative weakness of the office in the current age. Which is both exciting and terrifying.

You’re exactly the same because you admitted yourself it’s okay for a company to fire an employee who is talking negatively about their employer because it could impact the company’s bottom line. A sentiment I actually agree with.


Twitter banning people that they don’t like has NOTHING to do with financial impacts and everything to do with hurt feelings or ideological disagreements.

A company firing someone for bad mouthing the company could actually hurt a company. Completely different. Entirely.

Exactly. It’s a parody. They all look like something someone crazy would say but every tweet is intentionally over the top.

They’re both consequences for exercising one’s free speech.

what way does discussing the lab leak hypothesis, Hunter Biden’s laptop, or men competing as women impact twitter’s bottom line?

Interesting. Just two questions, if I may. How much of Twitter does the Kingdom own, directly & indirectly? What are the Kingdom’s views on journalistic freedom of speech?

So he owns 7% of all stock. Offers to buy Twitter. Why are the odds their stock shoots sky high and he sells it all for a big gain?

When establishment politicians, big tech billionaires, corporate media, and neocon warmongers like Max Boot are on your side, you are not "the resistance".
