Catturd ™ @catturd2 I admit when I'm wrong and I was 100% wrong about @elonmusk changing Twitter.

The new Twitter moderation council is just a bunch of far left fanatic groups who were never targeted here.

No average Joes, no real Conservatives, no one to represent the PEOPLE ACTUALLY TARGETED!

My thoughts too. Maybe Elon is going through the motions so he can later say, “I heard what they had to say, but....” Sort of like when Trump met with Romney in public shortly after his first election. Then didn’t place him in the administration.

I don’t think he has formally appointed it yet. Many people are pushing for some conservative appointments such as Harmeet Dhillon. I’d love to see someone like “The Red Headed Libertarian” appointed.

@catturd is a well informed, prolific conservative account. One of the most famous users who’s not a celebrity.

That is true, but he did say he was going to form
the council with this sort of makeup... we need to make it known
that we want representation on the counsel that doesn’t exist on this list he spoke to...

it is all far left liberals except what appears to be a sop, a person from some GW Bush org... Elon apparently doesn’t know that most conservatives have a pretty negative view of the Bushes

Disappointing but not particularly surprising - Musk is not a conservative. He did say, though, that he's a free speech absolutist. I'll wait to see how this plays out - a moderation council under Musk may have far less say in actually controlling content.

Same. BUT if Musk makes all of the self important Blue dot Twidiots heads explode, I’m glad he’s spending his money.

The problem I have with Musk is that he sometimes says or does something good but isn’t sure why it is good and seems to have no deep seated compass that determines that.

It is easy to change his mind with the right pressure. He seems to have a good attitude which is easy when you have the money to toss away on Twatter. You can pay others to put up with the nonsense that goes with it.

My jury is still out on Musk. May be out for quite awhile.

Catturd is one of the most popular conservative accounts on Twitter... he also appeared on DHS list of most dangerous persons on Twitter for ‘disinformation.’ James Woods was #1 on that list.

I think that quality about him is because he’s juggling so many balls at once... that probably leads to a lack of focus from him from time to time...

Elon is no conservative and he doesn’t seem to understand politics all that well but this complaint is ridiculous. Elon has owned the site less than a week. This group of people is not his announced content moderation council. The leftists use Twitter and are flipping out about Elon buying it so of course he will talk to them about it. Elon will do what he does about content and reinstatement and then we’ll all see what that is. It hasn’t happened yet.

Often posts clever quips. Frequently seen in Pookies tunes. Regular linked site here on FR. While I often like the quips, I rarely forward them because of the awkward handle they’ve chosen.

I find it odd that the Babylon Bee hasn’t been reinstated yet, since that was the account Elon went to war over...

Why can’t people WAIT and see what happens? Nothing has been announced yet.

C'mon! What's the fun in that?

It's like asking Freepers to read the articles before posting.

I agree. Tweeting is for the birds.

Because this is today's Free Republic. People can't be bothered to read the articles, let alone wait until a story develops to make a definitive judgment on it.

To paraphrase J. Vernon McGee, "The only exercise some Freepers get is jumping to conclusions and running down others!"
