Anything negative about Musk is “world” news.
Anything positive is “tech” news.
Anything inconvenient is not covered at all. “That’s old news! Everyone knows thaaaat”.
he is doing a wonderful job with Twitter.

That is one way to deal with stalking, harassment or doxxing online. Buy the company.
Too bad that is not an option to the many other people who have suffered from this who were not tech oligarchs who got their leg up by being a heir to an African blood emerald mine.

Behaving like a dictator! Explains his love for Trump and Putin!

Private company. Don’t like it build your own, right?
I thought they were all gonna leave and make an account on Mastodon anyway? Bwaahaha

What’s that quote?
“When people get used to preferential treatment, equal treatment seems like discrimination.”
yeah, that.

So what happened to the end of censorship?

Twitter on Thursday suspended the accounts of journalists who cover the social media platform and its new owner Elon Musk, including reporters working for The New York Times, Washington Post, CNN and other publications.
Nice move. Those media sources were so bias during the 2016 election, they deserve this treatment.Z.

Critics- not people who share real time information about his and his choldten’s location to Antifa.

What is a choldten, iPhone?
“children”

So much for free speech absolutism.....
Madverts
Tiny little elon has gone full affuluenza dictator.
The self appointed warrior of freedumb speech.
The only question is who ends up in a rubber room in the asylum first....
Kanye, Elon or Trump?

Free speech absolutist pisses his pants and has a tantrum because reporters report on him.
Express sister
None of this is true, and Elon previously said he wouldn’t ban the account that shows flight details (which are publicly available and protected by the first amendment).

Suspending, shaddow-banning (whatever this is), blocking, refusing .....
"Elon Must" running Twitter into the ground! Was it really worth all the $$ he paid?
Egomaniac he is like the people he admires (Dump, Putain etc).
Blacklabel
then who is the Antifa guy in the car in the video that was posted?
thats not "flight details" now is it? thats GPS location in the street level to track a car that Antifa thought Elon was in, but that his son was.
Express sister
There is no evidence that the person is antifa.
Why has Muskrat not filed a criminal report with the police? Because he knows he’ll get caught making a false police report.
He also posted the man’s license plate number, doxxing him. When is Musk going to ban himself?
None of which was broadcast on Twitter.
Blacklabel
The owner of the private company called Twitter says it did happen and it was broadcast on Twitter so he used his power at the owner and removed those people who shared his GPS info from his site.
44 billion dollars give him that right.
Odd that the same people that say Musk is lying totally bought in to the "I was getting a subway sandwich at 2am in Chicago and 2 MAGA hat guys jumped out the bushes and attacked me by throwing bleach on me and putting a noose around my neck " guy
If Musk is lying, who is the weirdo in the car dressed just like Antifa?
.
Express sister
This just isn’t true. Journalists who reported that Musk banned an account he said he wouldn’t ban… got banned. He’s making things up because he’s a thin-skinned baby who’s still hurting that he got booed.
What are you talking about?
The person Musk doxxed, against the rules he himself invented? I don’t know. I don’t think he looks like he’s dressed like antifa, whatever that means. I’m anti fascist, and I’m wearing jeans and a woolly sweater.
Express sister
Do I? Are you sure it isn’t a three percenter? Or an Oath Keeper?
Or could it just be a guy wearing a mask because there is a global pandemic?
