The establishment is trying to prevent “freedom of speech”. I thought Musk was going to lose money by buying Twitter when the news were first announced, and I still do. One individual cannot fight the machine. It’s possible the religion of wokism will pick another tool which will render Twitter irrelevant. We saw what they did to Trump’s Truth Social and other platforms that threatened their control of public discourse and spreading their cancerous ideology referred to as “Diversity, Inclusion, Equity”.

Elon Musk said his father is “a terrible human being” who has done “almost every evil thing”. Elon is turning into his father.

If you let these activites groups run the profits out of your company. A billionaire will buy your company and fire you.
We’ve seen it with Warner Media and now we are seeing it with Twitter.

Awesome, new emerging marketers can enter now. Twitter doesn’t need to suck up with old advertisers. Plus those old advertisers are Ads Agencies not Brands!!!

Here is the truth:
Elon buys Twitter
Tolls make bot accounts to spam the n-word
Twitter blocks the accounts
Activist groups say there is a rise in hate on Twitter (the hate is only fake bot accounts)
News media reports what the activists say as fact
Activist groups take the news reports to the advertisers and tell them “Look there is a rise in hate on twitter you must stop your ads on Twitter”
Advertisers pull ads from Twitter
This whole thing is fake. It is being done because Elon said he wants free speech on Twitter. The question is why are the Media, Activists, and Advertisers not telling the truth?

Corporate advertising sales is about relationships built over the years between Twitter account managers and advertisers. With the rates of him fitting people in the company, of course advertisers are leaving the platform.

Twitter was a tool used by the WH to force their fascist mandates. People were fired from the jobs & military. Denied new jobs, travel, classrooms, meetings, and restaurants. All predicated on a bald face lie, that the vax offered immunity. It’s time for Karma payback, fire them all.

Why would automobile companies enrich their competitor? Companies have the freedom of choice and they rather keep their cash in their pockets or spend it elsewhere.

Advertisers fleeing Twitter shows you how much confidence they have in Elon.
I thought Elon was the richest man in the world. He had to take out a loan?
Elon’s wealthy isn’t worth the paper it’s written on. Tesla, the most over priced company the world has ever seen.

So he now owns a car company that has self driving capabilities with no more fatal accidents, a space company that has gotten to mars are started settling a base there saving humanity, and a social media platform that will be the heaven of free speech. He truly is our savior.

Those receiving the $44B in this deal could create a fund called “The What Elon Could Have Done With His Money Fund” .. and help finance progressive and humanitarian causes. That would be funny

This was a brilliant business decision by the Silicon Valley investors. What do you do if you have invested in company that is not profitable (is losing money) but has a good brand recognition (like the “public square” of the Internet). Well, you enrage somebody with money so they will want to buy your company and then, you can charge them as much as possible based on their rage. In this case you can artificially censor one political party so they become enraged enough and create a thinking movement about justice (in this case freedom of speech). And if the guy with money falls in this thinking movement, they will pay good money for your failing business and do all the dirty work for you.
I can’t believe that a smart guy like Elon fell into this trap. “Freedom of speech”. Ha, ha, ha. Nobody took your freedom of speech. You can use Facebook to post your tweets as well. No need for Truth Social or Mastodon, when you have Facebook. Or even your own website with RSS feeds.
To you all the Trump supporters I have a message for you: you are being manipulated to act out of rage., so somebody can make good money out of your rage reaction: like Silicon Valley investors, media websites like Alex Jones’, or even Russia gaining influence over Europe and sending you to the history toilet, step by step.

Twitter shareholders did not want to sell it initially and only did so because a law forced them to accept the deal. Get your facts straight, instead of being triggered by free speech.

We should boycott the companies that leave Twitter since they’ve made it clear they don’t care about Freedom of Speech.

Note the car manufacturers leaving. He successfully destroyed a good part of advertisement for his competition. Is Tesla in trouble or is he just becoming more powerful? I imagine he has politics on his mind.

Musk is a genius when it comes to technology but it’s not translating in the social media realm. He’s trying to restore the voice for a small, radical group of society that promotes lies and hate.
Twitter censorship has never been about being PC. It’s about what’s morally right and wrong.

Musk has kept businesses afloat only by getting billions from the Federal government. He won’t get a dime of help for Twitter. Advertisers, run for your lives before your decades year carefully cultivated brand shows up on Twitter next to Kanye with another antisemitic rant, or a Musk or trump conspiracy theory about space lasers or Chinese ballots….
