To which I say: too bad. šŸ˜› Twitter's policies was just too ham-fisted, and they need to change fast.

Can he chase out that owner or whatever he is, the one that looks like a demented hippie goat?

the employees said his views on moderation could weaken years-long efforts to make Twitter a place of healthy discourse?

There's nothing "healthy" about censorship, bias, and "cancel culture", morons.

Elon is growing on me. Anyone who unsettles the left is doing something right.

four Twitter employees who spoke with Reuters said they were concerned about Musk's ability to influence the company's policies on abusive users and harmful content.

They think a TRUE story in the NY Post is harmful content and anyone who retweets it is an abusive user - so yes, hopefully they quit.

Despite Twitter's reiteration this week that the board does not make policy decisions...

Keep sayin' that - maybe you can believe it if you say that enough times.

Holy crap, Musk might do something! Circle the wagons!

I wish he'd hire me to manage the purge. Death benefits are cheaper than payroll, know what I mean?

"With Musk on the board, the employees said his views on moderation could weaken years-long efforts to make Twitter a place of healthy discourse, and might allow trolling and mob attacks to flourish."

Who writes this utterly ridiculous trash?

"Years-long efforts to make Twitter a place of healthy discourse"

"might allow mob attacks to flourish."

Let's ask President Trump what he thinks about those assertions. Or ask any conservative who has been banned, had their posts deleted, or their followers canned.

It’s the same way people at Pravda would feel if, suddenly, their favorite dictator lost power and the paper had to lose their communism-all-the-time grip on the news.
