Liberals Fume over Elon Musk Twitter Purchase: ‘It’s About White Power’
breitbart ^ | 26 Apr 2022 | JOSHUA KLEIN

An array of left-wing personalities took to Twitter in the wake of a potential sale of social media giant Twitter to Tesla CEO Elon Musk, deeming it a victory for “white power” and “white nationalism” that will “silence” progressive voices and amplify “racists” and others on the right, including former President Donald Trump.

“Elon musk buying Twitter is a dream come true for white nationalists,” wrote left-wing comedian Dean Obeidallah. “After all musk is from the former apartheid country of South Africa which the white supremacists idolize.”

“Now that Elon Musk is buying Twitter, the question for all of us is: Will he allow a Criminal who used this platform to lie and spread disinformation to try to overthrow the US Government to return and continue his Criminal activity?” wrote far-left Rob Reiner.

“Musk will amplify racists, bigots, and misinformation,” wrote liberal columnist David Weissman.

“It’s about white power,” wrote left-wing activist Shaun King. “That’s why white nationalists are giddy today.”

King deleted his account soon after those postings.

“The idea that Trump’s existence in the ‘public sphere’ is dependent on Twitter is absurd,” wrote Lincoln Project founder Steve Schmidt. “He is a dominant and malicious figure in our society who has shown that he can break laws with impunity to such a degree that he remains the GOP front runner even after his coup attempt.”

“So enjoying the most toxic, right wing trolls still on this platform drooling with excitement and baring their teeth at the normal, thoughtful people who plan to exit once Musk has turned this site into Parler,” wrote MSNBC anchor Joy Reid. “As if they actually enjoy quacking only with each other on Parler…”

Meanwhile the vast majority of conversations on twitter have nothing to do with politics. So if the right are allowed back and the left leave then the normies can be educated and the left can create the CNN+ version of twitter.

Loved that episode!

BELE: It is obvious to the most simpleminded that Lokai is of an inferior breed.

SPOCK: The obvious visual evidence is that he is of the same breed as yourself.

BELE: Are you blind, Commander Spock? Look at me. Look at me.

SPOCK: You are black on one side and white on the other.

BELE: I am black on the right side.

SPOCK: I fail to see the significant difference.

BELE:Lokai is white on the right side. All of his people are white on the right side.

Apparently the racists on the letter don’t want any competition, even if it is fictional (they call Everyone racist falsely)

Shaun King is back on Twitter... and he has clearly been broken by the potential of free speech.

As usual, their opening gambit is slander.

It is not possible to have a meaningful discussion with such people.
