Go for it Elon. Expose the corrupt bastards. Show no mercy and take no prisoners. Make em sweat and expose anything DC-Beltway connected. They are all trying to bring you down so go on the offense. Twitter must come clean on censoring Post’s Hunter Biden laptop story: Musk Elon Musk has insisted that full disclosure on Twitter’s decision to censor The Post’s exclusive story about Hunter Biden’s infamous laptop is “necessary” in order to restore public trust in the social media giant. The world’s richest man, who purchased the platform last month, made his position clear late Wednesday when he responded to a Twitter user who asked whether the internal communications that led to the censorship decision should be released. “Raise your hand if you think @ElonMusk should make public all internal discussions about the decision to censor the @NYPost’s story on Hunter Biden’s laptop before the 2020 Election in the interest of transparency,” the user tweeted. Twitter’s new CEO quickly responded: “This is necessary to restore public trust.” https://nypost.com/2022/11/24/elon-...rship-of-the-posts-hunter-biden-laptop-story/
Elon Musk is allowing ALL the promoters of hatred, violence, and misinformation back on Twitter. Elon Musk says he will begin restoring previously banned Twitter accounts next week https://www.cnn.com/2022/11/24/tech/elon-musk-amnesty-poll/index.html Elon Musk just decided to bring the worst people on the internet back to Twitter https://www.theverge.com/2022/11/24/23476655/elon-musk-general-amnesty-mass-unban-twitter
Let's describe a complex notion of "promoters of hatred, violence, and misinformarion" in simple and truthful words. These are people who I disagree with.
By the way, he asked people to vote for it. The responce was overwhelming. YES!!! Fighters for the people and democracy are hating the democracy when it works in a wrong direction.
Just a bunch of bots. The amusing part is that Musk doesn’t really care about the results of the vote — his mind was already made up in advance. He is simply using the votes as a tool to identify bots.
Fine job you are doing there, Elon. Over 2 Billion in advertising revenue wiped out in under a month. Now that you have allowed all the promoters of hatred, violence, and misinformation back on the platform in a wholesale manner -- this loss of revenue will only accelerate. 50 of Twitter's top 100 advertisers have pulled out of the platform since Elon Musk took over, report says https://www.businessinsider.com/twitter-lost-half-top-advertisers-elon-musk-takeover-report-2022-11 Half of Twitter's top 100 advertisers have stopped promoting on the platform, per Media Matters. Since 2020, those 50 companies have spent $2 billion on Twitter advertising. Some publicly announced their decisions, but others are seemingly "quiet quitters." In the 25 days since Elon Musk took over Twitter, half of its top 100 advertisers have stopped advertising on the platform, according to the research center Media Matters. Since 2020, those 50 companies have accounted for nearly $2 billion in advertising revenue. This year alone, they spent $750 million, Media Matters said. Some of the companies – like Chevrolet, Ford, and Chipotle – have publicly announced that they were stopping advertising on Twitter. Media Matters says the others are "quiet quitters," because its analysis of Pathmatics data shows that they have stopped advertising for a "significant period of time." Coca-Cola, Kellogg's, and Meta are among those who have pulled their advertising budgets away from Twitter, according to Media Matters. The list of all 50 is available in Media Matters' report. The media center cites "direct outreach, controversies, and warnings from media buyers" as causes behind those companies' decisions. Insider has reached out to all 50 companies for comment. Mars clarified that they first suspended advertising on Twitter in late September, before Musk's takeover was complete. Insider's Lara O'Reilly and Lindsay Rittenhouse previously reported that Musk had tried to reassure top advertisers that Twitter was safe, in a virtual meeting soon after his takeover. Around the same time, Musk blamed activist groups "trying to destroy free speech in America" for "pressuring advertisers." On November 11, the world's biggest ad-buyer, Group M, designated Twitter "high-risk" for advertisers and warned its clients against buying promotions on the platform. According to Digiday, advertisers grew concerned after Twitter's head of trust and safety, Yoel Roth, quit his job. In the role, he had tried to ease concerns about misinformation and hate speech on the platform. GroupM also raised concerns over brand impersonation, because an $8 subscription to Twitter Blue could allow anyone to get a blue-tick. Nintendo and McDonald's were among the companies which were impersonated, while another troll pretending to be the pharmaceutical company Eli Lilly falsely said: "Insulin is free now." Musk has since paused paid-verification until the issues can be sorted with "high confidence." The author Stephen King also joked on Tuesday: "Pretty soon the only advertiser left on Twitter will be My Pillow," referring to the company led by Mike Lindell, an outspoken Donald Trump supporter and conspiracy theorist.
FROM BABYLON BEE: Readers of the Bee, Eight months ago, USA Today named Rachel Levine — a transgender government official — “woman of the year.” It was pretty funny, if we’re being honest. But it was also a slap in the face to real women everywhere. So we fired back, in defense of women and sanity, with a joke of our own: “The Babylon Bee’s Man of the Year Is Rachel Levine” Twitter was not amused. They locked our account for hateful conduct. “Delete the joke and admit you engaged in hateful conduct,” they said, “and you can have your account back.” We refused. We did not engage in hateful conduct. In fact, we used humor to tell the truth, and the truth is not hate speech. So I sent an email to our readers on March 21 vowing to never delete that tweet, even if it meant the permanent loss of our presence on Twitter. Thankfully, we never had to delete anything. In late October, Elon Musk bought Twitter for $44 billion with a promise to restore balance and humor to the platform. On November 18, he unlocked our account and set us free. Shortly before he did so, he posted one of the most-liked tweets in Twitter history: “Comedy is now legal on Twitter.” The Bee will hit 2 million followers soon. We had 1.5 million when Twitter first locked us up. We now have more followers and reach across all platforms than ever before — not because we acquiesced, but because we stubbornly refused to bend the knee for tyrants. This wasn’t just a win for the Bee, though. It was an historic win for speech, humor, and truth. It also goes to show that taking a stand might cost you something, but you never know what will come from it down the road. You never know who you’ll inspire or embolden with your actions, and the ripple effect that will produce. We’re grateful to Elon Musk. We wouldn’t have our voice back on Twitter without him. But we’re also grateful to our premium subscribers, who’ve supported us along the way. The only reason we were able to afford to take a bold stand for the truth without concern for how it would impact us financially is because we have an army of loyal supporters in our corner.
