"I've been shadow-banned" is the Twitter equivalent of "I have a girlfriend, but I can't introduce you to her because she lives in Canada."

This is like when someone things a well-officiated game is one where the same number of fouls are called on each team. https://t.co/aNBxwI0dlF

It's weird how the Republican hunt for pedophiles and groomers keeps missing all the ones inside the party. https://t.co/SUM8sNrZgI

I feel like people underrate the extent to which enmity towards Elon Musk is driven by him just being sort of obnoxious

Thank god "dude who is already given a column in the New York Times" came along to explain to us how twitter is only useful for shitposting and slacking off because all of us can just communicate, organize, and advocate via our column delivered to hundreds of thousands. https://t.co/f0gJHiFjVB

No one should ever have to face bullying and networked harassment from their future boss.
If you want to know what Elon Musk will mean for Twitter, it's now very clear. When people show you who they are, believe them.

What’s going on: He’s trying to goad people into leaving and it’s an odious way of doing it. Speaking of which, you can be sure to keep up with the payments he needs to make, there will have to be significant layoffs at twitter. He’d rather they quit, than pay them out. https://t.co/QiRCt2MVmc

Look at the replies to @yashar’s tweet. This site has gotten virtually unusable for trans people, and Musk taking control of it just makes things worse. It’s brought out the transphobes in full force. https://twitter.com/yashar/status/1519416991387332608

People are justifiably worried about Musk because it seems he's stepping in to support speech he likes, rather than defending speech on principle.

I think they are wrong -- but this is a justifiable worry.

Appalling as @vijaya has tackled a thankless task for @jack for a long time now and he should publicly support her and push back on this kind of toxicity. We saw your high-fives for Elon, Jack, and cool beans, but perhaps show a little respect and loyalty to her. https://t.co/5CNG8JL4jt

amazing how quickly rightwingers go from "Big Tech should not be deciding what is true, free speech should be absolute" to "Elon should ban the New York Times cuz it's all woke propaganda"

Elon Musk says he wants free speech, but his track record suggests otherwise by Lora Kolodny
Musk's free speech advocacy seems to apply mostly to his own speech or that of his fans and promoters.

The scarce input for tech companies is not capital or ideas, but talent with execution capability.

Elon's behavior towards people who are about to work for him is at the point where Tesla shareholders should get nervous about the ability to attract and retain talent.

But creating memes targeting individual executives like @vijaya, who has a long history of trying to balance safety with free expression and fighting for the privacy of users, is completely unacceptable.

Executives at Elon's other companies need to tell him he's out of line.

I’m putting this out there now.

I think the @twitter acquisition is going to fall through and @elonmusk is not going to acquire it.

Watch this space.

Elon, this is not how the right wing in this country operates. They will only credit you with neutrality if you are privileging them. That's the price for getting them to say you've earned their trust. https://t.co/5om078by3i
