Twitter employees have reportedly struggled with the news that the company is on the verge of being acquired by Tesla CEO Elon Musk with some of them too "shocked" to speak over the billionaire’s plans to promote freedom of speech. Several Twitter employees expressed serious concerns and fear over Musk’s $44 billion acquisition of the company including a prominent worry that Musk would undo censorship mechanisms they had worked to implement over the years, The Washington Post reported Monday.

I doubt that Musk will tolerate all the vile anti-semites and real Nazis and others who just can’t wait to put their shyt out there.

I doubt he will either, but I think he should. He said he's a "free speech absolutist." We'll see how that is defined in practice.

The BB had a good satire on this morning, about the Twatter Bored finding 138,000 votes against the buyout. I didn’t get much further than the headline, as I was signing for ammo deliveries from FedEx,. and getting it inside my condo.

Ahhhh, here it is:

They do the same thing on Reddit. Their moderators are commie freaks.

Reddit...LOL...How 2007. Yes that place is a leftist circle jerk. Want to have some fun, go into a sub about thew Ukraine situation and play "Devil's Advocate" for Russia. I did and the venom I got was hilarious...like Liberals on TikTok Twitter hilarious.

The typical Redditor is a white simp age 20-35 living in some urban hipster sh*thole. He works remotely for some tech company and wacks between meetings to Cosplay porn, while he is munching down Flaming Hot Cheetos and Yerba Mate. He has a hookup partner who is pasty, pudgy with pink hair and a bull-ring in her nose. She is home also, sponging off him, writing witty comments on Twitter calling her\she an influencer. He has sex with her if he cleans out the catbox and asks for consent in writing every time he tries to fondle her naughty parts. He is the greatest expression of a single-parent household where Mom left Dad because she was "Not Living her Higher Purpose". He grew up soaking up all the estrogen and feminazi propaganda. Your basic Sailboat shirt kid, who grew up a pussy playing soccer and listening to all the women in his life.

Unemployment would give them the safe space they seem to need.

Good point. Its a (expensive, but..) form of corporate reputation enhancement.

“Want to have some fun, go into a sub about the Ukraine situation and play “Devil’s Advocate” for Russia.”

I got banned from Reddit in about thirty seconds. I posted one time in what was called r/conservatives and drew the fire of a snarky feminist moderator who said I was permanently banned.

But as for your suggestion, I can do that here.

How awful it would be to be run by one of the most successful businessmen on the planet.

All because he doesn’t agree with your liberal views... which are the ONLY views that should be allowed.

I’m the same way; I think it’s a 7-10yr fad.

See you have to go in there and push it not too far. Ask questions that will really trigger but not get you banned. Reddit was notorious for mysteriously having people doxxed. Aka Reddit supplying IPs and having friendly people at ISPs to pingback to addresses. I know someone who had this done to them. They posted and a day later their information was up on Reddit, all while the clapping seal simp tough guys fellated themselves. It's also a cesspool for the LGBTQI+ weirdos, they get super triggered on almost anything.

I don’t think Musk needs the forum for Tesla. He has the whole damn government on his side...and they can’t punish him individually....LOL

I have great hopes for solar playing a very large part - but I believe that’s long, long in the future.

Leftists ONLY want free speech when it is from their point of view. They cannot cope with logic, family, tradition, religion or any other non-perverted political of sexual proclivity than their own. That’s a fact. Just go try and talk to Taylor Lorenz.....
