Ahh... So the correct takeaway from all this is that we should trust you to tell us which headlines to believe - personally, I'll continue to stick to the ol' faithful 'read beyond the headline'.

It's just absolutely hilarious seeing you warn people against trusting headlines; spread misinformation you learned from trusting headlines; and tell us to trust the headlines you say are ok to trust. It's like some weird existentialist art production - Hell is other headlines.

So you’re confirming that Elon musk is still banning accounts. We’ve been telling you this for a month.

WRONG.  He didn't say "the experts are completely made up".  He asked what makes them "online safety experts" and said the title was made up.

He also questioned how allowing people who were previously censored from Twitter will make others unsafe if they are uncensored (for example Garland Nixon, Scott Ritter, etc).  Maybe you can know?




Why are company employed experts on the safety of an online platform then referred to in an article as online safety experts? Huh, really great and insightful question. Thanks for spending 20 minutes on it Glenn. And glad you're still confused. High minded stuff here.

I'll address your second question if you tell me what he meant by unsafe. Cause apparently the EU study citing illegal hate crimes not being dealt with doesn't qualify as unsafe. If legality isn't a starting metric I'm not sure where to go.

The person who gets banned knows. You don’t get banned for one tweet tho. They lock your account and give you the opportunity to delete it. If you don’t delete it then your account gets locked. Multiple violations result in a permanent ban

Musk says amnesty is coming.  I'm curious to see he'll do it.

If he does, it's a win for free speech.

I think I already brought it up - unsafe means against the establishment narrative.  That's why they banned Scott Ritter and Garland Nixon.

I've said many times I'm good with Twitter censoring illegal content, but I'm not good with the exceptions above.

I'll be honest I have no clue who those people are or what they've posted. But a thoughtful review of COVID era reactionary banning would be a far cry from wide sweeping amnesty. All sorts of wild west type shit happened during COVID and understandably IMO mistakes exist and are likely on all fronts from all parties. It was trial and of course some error.

But the AP article covers this in part. Elon said he would do a thoughtful review before going nevermind, YOLO!

Source for this claim that unsafe = against establishment narrative?  Like you linked to that Twitter research paper.  The one that doesn't entirely say what you think it says because you didn't read the methodology sections.

This idea that a company, now or then, isn't about profitably but instead somehow about free speech is so absurd that I cannot believe this is actually a talking point.

Of course a company is about profit. If it's not making money it's not a company. Musk knows that too and is not some freedom fighter. He's trying to make money just like the prior owners were working to make money. And based on the advertiser flight they did a better job of understanding what allows advertisers to see a return on investment.

Musk is attacking anything that hurts profitability except his own decision making and actions. Which are the most direct cause of course. He dictated the changes which garnered the response, not anyone else. He's the one who keeps shit posting while the Twitter brand is now tied in to those posts. It is the height of hubris to blame others. But what else is expected from a billionaire?

Yeah he’s going to let all the right wing bigots back on the site while continuing to ban labor organizers, and other left-leaning accounts that irritate him.

Can’t make parody accounts but can deny the existence of trans people.

Sounds like freedom to me!

Scott Ritter shouldn’t even be allowed online. He’s a convicted pedophile who spent five years in jail for trying to pickup a 15 year old girl online

That’s who falcon wants Twitter to platform

Who made that talking point?  Serious question.

Musk is hoping to make money by offering a platform that has freer speech than the others.  And so far, Twitter use is up.  But companies who prefer the establishment narrative don't want to support them.

I've asked this twice now, but which labor organizer and left leaning accounts are getting banned?  I'm asking so we can follow those accounts to see if they get unbanned or not per his promise.

You think I made up that Garland Nixon was banned?  Check out his account:  https://twitter.com/GarlandNixon/

Watch the Jimmy Dore video which includes the reason why he was banned.
