Kinda funny watching conservatives fawning all over him now like he's on some altruistic mission to pwn the libs
Free speech is not altruism, it's the 1st amendment

Yes by taking away peoples ability to tweet you are increasing free speech. Makes sense if you’re an idiot
Or an evil genius.

christopera said: Yeah, it will be surprising if it ever happens.
I did hear the full interview with Elon about Twitter and his views on making it a free speech platform or something along those lines. His stance is way blown out of proportion. He basically said he thinks permabans are a bit much (aka other punishments are still going to be used) but that he would ban bots and spam accounts. Of course that is all fine and dandy until the platform goes to shit, which is why they banned a lot of these people in the first place.
Twitter sentences should have limits. Permabans = Social media death sentences.
No matter how shredded to shit your butthole is, nobody gives a fuck about your butthole.

Here's exactly what will happen
At first, right wing extremist will take advantage of the new chaos and will spew racist, sexist nazi bullshit because for a brief window, they will be able to. They saw themselves banned while the extreme left wasn't. So it's inevitable.
Then the pedulum effect will slowly calm down, new rules will be enforced that will be fairer for both sides and sudenly people will be like "oh shit, that is better after all"

koods said: There is no guarantee that starlink will be a commercial success. If it isn’t it will be a monumental failure, and the sky will be littered with all that worthless space junk. The whole hyper loop , tunnel thing was a huge flop. Elon has a lot of bad ideas, and I don’t think he has a clue how to run a social media company.
He says he’s concerned about bots and fake accounts then turns around and he starts charging money for Twitter major tool in fighting fake accounts: verified users. It makes no sense
Starlink already works and he has enough capital to support the losses until he makes a profit.
Charging 20$ to verified users will confirm that they are actually real people/organizations. Bots on the other hand won't be abl;e to get the verified user thumbs up. If their cerators can afford to buy all of it, they will be subject to further examination. Most verified users and organization are very easy to confirm in real life also.

That’s what the blue check already means. It’s how you know you’re talking to person you think you are. Why charge for that? It’s a security feature
It's another layer of security. There are enough bots already. It's time to weed out some of them.
Musk paid 10 times what Twitter is worth in order to make it better. $20 per verified user won't put him in the green.

How nobody understand the concept of restructuring?
It's like gutting a house for renos. You can't live in the house during the renos but when it's all done, it's better than what it was.
He's owned the company for 2 minutes. There's no point wasting time speculating whether it'll work or not. Especially not speculating with confidence which is the dumbest thing of all (ex: He'll destroy Twitter for sure).
It'll take months.
Enjoy the ride.

all of this stuff is ultimately his call though. he didn't have to lay everyone off or do any of the other wildly stupid things he's done.
i'm not optimistic about the future of twitter, but maybe i'm wrong. 
How do you know that what he did was wildly stupid?

in before "he's doing whataboutism!"
I’ve had the same opinion of musk for years.
Nope, I clearly remember you saying somewhere that you were warming to him (or something like that). It was definitely a positive.
