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…”

King is currently a writer-in-residence at Harvard Law School’s Fair Punishment Project.
On May 20, 2018, Shaun King accused a white Texas state trooper of raping Sherita Dixon-Cole, a black human resources professional.
The trooper arrested Dixon-Cole for drunk driving, and King based his accusation on statements she and her family made to King and Philadelphia lawyer S. Lee Merritt.
King’s social media posts, which identified the trooper by name, went viral, and “substantial harassment and threats” were made against the arresting trooper as well as another trooper with the same last name.
The Texas Department of Public Safety released nearly two hours of body-cam footage on May 22 that exonerated the trooper.
Merritt subsequently apologized for the false accusation and national attention he had brought to the case.
King deleted his social media posts after the body-cam video was released.
King is a fraud.
Yes, it’s about white mail power. We’re coming for all libtards next. You must not sleep.
All the people in Hotel California hear progressive voices release not expected soon.
Yes.
He chose to come here so that he could realize his destiny through hard work, imagination and innovation.
Couldn’t hurt if other African-Americans took a cue from his example...
“Shaun King is white.”
I know. But by “white”, he really means “non-Communist” or “anti-totalitarian”.
Liberals Fume over Elon Musk Twitter Purchase: ‘It’s About White Power’
___________________________________________________
Actually its about “Left-wing Thought Control”...sorry if you can’t deal with it.
Oh, so NOW they’re worried about censorship.
Pretty soon it will be Elon vs Fedgov, AWS, MSM, WHO, UN, CDC, WEF, Hollywood, Sports and others including the equivalents in other countries and EU.
Oh yes...it’s racism. That’s the ticket.
oh no, free speech puts our democracy in jeopardy
LEFTY definition of democracy: one party democrat rule
Yeah but he's white so this is the internet apartheid according to these idiots.
When liberals lose all reasonable arguments, they claim racism.
Isn’t Elon Musk saving the world environmentallly with Tesla?
Its hilarious watching their wailing. I just saw one say “you could ban one party’s candidates.....or simply turn down their reach and turn up the reach of others....and nobody would know until after the election.”
Gosh. Where have I heard this before? How come those on the Left never had such complaints before? Oh well. Twitter is a private company. They can do what they like. Right Lefties?
I was expecting babylon Bee on this one.
People who are terrified of free speech have severe control issues.
Elon Musk is African American. What a bunch of racists
How can it be “White Power” if Elon is an African American?
