“Free speech is the bedrock of a functioning democracy.....”
To a liberal those words are like holy water on a vampire.
The bedrock of a functioning democracy is TRUTH. May Elon Musk experience freedom through CHRIST.
For the Lord is the Spirit, and wherever the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. ~ 2 Corinthians 3:17
I wish Elon Musk well.
It is time to totally expose the maggots who run that platform.
I’ve used it since 2009. There was a time it was actually useful. If you dug deeply, you could find some interesting unfiltered news.
On Twitter, I’ve been suspended and threatened a number of times. Have also had private messages frozen and then deleted because of the URL that I sent. They labeled it “Fringe Minority” - “Unacceptable View”.
The link was to a interview with Edward Dowd
Edward Dowd on Future Recession, Shocking Findings in the CDC Covid Data, and Democide (Mar 10, 2022)
They gave me 2 options, remove the Direct Message or block the user that I had sent it to.
I did neither. I hit Control-Shift-Delete, cleared my browser cache, rebooted my system, and in 1/2 hour when I logged back into Twitter, my DM had been removed.
I’m agnostic concerning Mr. Musk. I am reserving judgment until I see exactly what he does with the septic system called Twitter.
I do enjoy reading the manic opus’ from the almost suicidal moronic Twitter reprobates worried that “Democracy” is in jeopardy. Good, we don’t need no stinking democracy, anyway. I prefer a Constitutional Republic rather than flash mob rule.
I do worry that one or more of the mentally retarded software engineers will sabotage the code as they are sashaying out the door. Remember what the Clintonista’s did as they were leaving the White House…
What makes York think he’s entitled to know that?
Twitter’s a private company and they’re free to censor anyone they want. It may have been a bad business decision but they don’t owe us anything.
I think I’m going to demand KFC’s chicken recipe.
I’ve never had a twitter account.....fb or Instagram either for that matter and yet somehowmy life goes on.....maybe even better than some who think they can’t live without those platforms.
I am tempted to create a twit account but I think like you I’ll wait and see.
And also like you, the sheer anxiety this is creating for lunatic libs is just too delicious to ignore.
It proves one thing though....they’re all a bunch a freakin’ wimps just like I thought.
“Twitter’s a private company and they’re free to censor anyone they want. It may have been a bad business decision but they don’t owe us anything.”
Twitter is a PUBLIC company until Musk takes it PRIVATE.
“I do worry...”
Not very easy at this point, due to the code lock down, not to mention the Bread Crumbs that anyone signing in leaves.
Also, some accounts have already been restored, including Babylon Bee (which was the reason Musk bought Twitter) and Tucker Carlson. Others have ‘tested’ the system by posting ‘hoorible’ things like “Vaccines don’t work” and have not yet been banned. I suspect what’s going on now is an attempt by the Fascists there to not get on Elon’s bad side, with the hope that he doesn’t look at back at their earlier work.
...so, so far, so good.

Nothing that happens in TWATTER matters outside of TWATTER. No account, no FB account, very little social media for that matter means my home looks good, my yard is clean and well tended and communication with my wife is superb. Social Media, for the most part, is garbage for the brain.
There is never going to be any audit. That could expose liability which would materially affect the value of the company. Ain’t gonna happen outside of a court order.
“What makes York think he’s entitled to know that?”
Because it could well be a violation of Federal election laws. They’re called “in kind contributions” and they must be reported to the FEC. Failure to do so is a felony and can get you serious prison time.
So there’s that.

Yeah...I don’t get it! Do you really want to know how Meathead’s meat head operates? I didn;t think so!
A Twitter “Truth Commission” - sounds like a plan.
So you think Jim needs to report to the FEC if he zots a pro-Biden poster during the election cycle?
What's the difference?
Currently it's a public company, but for now, they are free to censor anyone. Even now that should be if, and only if, they don't take a single penny of government money.
IMHO, Twitter, Facebook, and others should be treated like a utility company. They may be private, but it's unthinkable to defend a private electric company if they cut off the electricity to someone's house because of their yard sign in support of this politician or that issue.

“Twitter’s a private company and they’re free to censor anyone they want.”
Actually, they are in violation of the law. As a publisher they cannot censor. They are simply not being held accountable as a publisher.
That “private company” excuse is not true. Can your utility company not provide you service because of your demographic?
