Dear Twitter users:

It’s not virtue-signalling to leave Twitter on principle now it’s owned by, led by, and most amenable and useful to #fascist interests.

It’s virtue signalling to remain.

I walked away from 14,000 followers on my author #twitter account the day after #elon took over. I choose not to bear witness to his egomaniacal depredations and ruthless ambitions. The do not regret it. Even a little.
#leavetwitternow

In a filing by #Twitter in (#Trump v Twitter), #Elon Musk’s lawyers say that Twitter was never coerced by the government to censor tweets. Also that the FBI only paid for the costs associated with subpoenas. Nothing else. And that makes the #twitterfiles just RW propaganda. Awkward!

#Elon working hard to get #Twitter to beat number 1 (T••••Co) :D

You don't have to look too hard to see how #Twitter encourages hate on their platform. Just take a look at how hateful comments are shot up to the TOP of replies as long as they give #Elon his $8 bucks.

Comment is an edited photo of Trudeau in blackface.
Comment says: "This is so sad to see. I remember when Sesame Street helped to teach values", in response to a Sesame Street tweet about Pride Month.
Comment: "Your sexuality is so so special. We're all very impressed." In response to an Edmonton reporter tweeting about being called a homophobic slur.
"Comment: So the two most violent and criminal groups in society?" In response to Saskatchewan Roughriders logo combining pride month and indigenous history month in one logo.

I asked them to rate his leadership skills and got a response. Seems they are not that good, I appreciate the honesty. 😉

If you also have questions about Twitter or Elon, maybe try press@twitter.com.

Elon musk took the Turkish people's chance at democracy and freedom away, interfering devastatingly, by preventing the Dictators opposition from tweeting, while filling Turkish twitter with fake news, deep fake videos.

Including tweets showing deep fake film of the leading opposition party chanting approval of a Turkish terrorist group, and twitter prevented anyone from calling them fake.

Elon Musk's fell purpose with twitter, is to bring Turkish elections, to America.

So #Elon, during that terrible group call for #RonDesaster today, said they were "allocating more servers to handle all the users". In a competently designed system, that is done automatically by the software.

So either he was lying, which is bad, or he was telling the truth, which is worse.

The number of listeners for DeSantis twitter announcement was embarrassingly low. There are twitch streamers playing games who get more views on a normal day. Fireside chats existed. Nothing new was invented. It was an embarrassing failure for Twitter, Musk, and DeSantis.

He is depicted in an MTG white fur coat, his white go go boots, and standing under an altered Disney sign, changed from "The most magical place on earth", crossed out by the red pen he holds, changed to "The most WOKE place on earth".

"Musk says he’ll keep tweeting whatever he wants even if it repels advertisers. If the consequences of his tweeting "is losing money, so be it," Musk said."

We shall see if Musk's creditors, the ones who loaned him the money to buy Twitter, feel the same way. He borrowed the money because he didn't have the cash on hand to pay for Twitter, and if Twitter loses enough money, he won't have the cash to operate it.

Elon – the self-described "free speech absolutist" – agreed to censor Twitter in Turkey last Saturday, the day before a critical election, at the request of the nation's autocratic government, in a country where national media is ~90% state-controlled. Musk has lucrative business dealings with the incumbent Turkish government through SpaceX.

I'm not sure how many active users Truth has, but I'm sure it's not that many. It must be a money losing business, so it's probably only a matter of time until it becomes another one of Trump's failed businesses.

Over on the bird site, Elon is, I swear to you, adding blue check marks against celebrities’ will if they cross him. He’s using it as a punishment now, telling their followers they have paid for Twitter Blue when they haven’t. People are having to keep changing display names just to escape it. It’s enough to make a cat laugh.

I don’t agree with people saying #Twitter is a fascist project now that #Elon Musk is involved. It’s been that way for years.

Twitter was Donald Trump’s personal hate megaphone even before becoming president.

Also, Twitter was run for years by a white techbro who believed racism falls under “free speech”. Meanwhile, Black people and Latinx were banned for the weirdest stuff all the time.
