Also Musk was hobbled majorly by the leftoid covidiot retard commies who used the plandemic to increase their power and shut down businesses, it's not a stretch to assume if they were able to keep business closed for much longer that even companies likey tsla would have gotten into major trouble. They did everything to sabotage the work in Fremont, based on the covid "policy" idiocy, so I'm sure Musk has an axe to grind with mass murderer fraudci.

Elon Musk took over Twitter in what feels like a whirlwind of chaos, shifting energy, cautious excitement from medical freedom advocates, and a somewhat glorious temper tantrum by those who have pledged undying (and sometimes dying) allegiance to The Institutions (The acronym health agencies + the acronym media outlets: FDA, CDC, NIH, CNN, MSNBC, NYT, etc)...

Elon is taking New Media and exploding it into the mainstream arena using sheer force and revealing a deep, dark well of information that Old Twitter kept under lock and key. Old Media are being left in a melting puddle, in a stuttering, dazed panic as Elon Musk bypasses the guardrails they used so arrogantly, and dumps out shocking information.

The method he's using is creative and efficient. He gave the documents to longtime independent journalists Matt Taibbi, Bari Weiss, and Michael Shellenberger. They're all journalists who come from long careers in media as mainstream as it comes, such as The Rolling Stone and The NYT. They gradually removed themselves from the chains of working for giant corporations with special interests and took a quality group of readers with them. The journalists have tens of thousands of paid subscribers on Substack and are trailblazers in proving that media and journalists can be chosen by the people who trust them. Elon Musk handed the documents to the above journalists with the main caveat being that the information must be published on Twitter first and then may be published elsewhere, such as their own personal Substacks.

The first four parts of the Twitter Files detailed the deep rot of censorship in the highest level of leaders at Twitter. They reveal the panic bordering on euphoria over at Twitter HQ, as management including Yoel Roth and Vijaya Gadde gleefully discussed finally having justification to kick the sitting POTUS off their platform. They reveal that the CDC and the White House had a direct channel to a special committee at Twitter for fast-tracking the flagging of tweets or accounts that the White House didn't like. They reveal the utter hubris of those sitting behind the all-powerful "ban" buttons, as they pushed their thumbs on the scale of the 2020 election by actively censoring a century-old media outlet when the NY Post reported on Hunter Biden's laptop. Evil dictators throughout history would have given anything to hold the power held by the small group of censors at Twitter.

With all the caution that's warranted when putting hope and faith in any person or solution, Elon Musk's actions to date deserve a tremendous amount of credit and gratitude, and it appears as though this is just the beginning.

Crazy that child exploitation drag queen tranny shit was mostly greenlighted by womynz. Another proof that wommynz need checks and balances from !the patriarchy!, esp. single leftoid cat harridans. Otherwise they'll sell out the nation's kids to groomers and experimental gene therapies.

The #1 abusers of kids are women.

The #2 abusers of kids are women's "shack up studs." as Dr. Laura used to say. The recent case, that the shitlibs disappeared just as fast as they tried to use it as a hammer, of the teen girl who was impregnated is a good example. The single mother put up with it in order to get Fernando to stay in the house, paying the bills and giving her attention.

The #3 abusers of kids are women's relatives

Lol took me a while to make sense of it, but that is fucking creepy

I think #pedoroth should be a thing.

Ah, more good accounts to follow!

I'm not sure what he expected, but hats off to Dave Chapelle for bringing Elon Musk onto the stage at his Chase Center show. I think Chapelle recognizes the importance of what Musk is doing. It should be noted, though, if you introduce someone as the richest man in the world, they will get booed. At least Dave was able to get one good one liner off in the midst of the chaos, "It sounds like some of them people you fired are in the audience..."

The Libs have been bitching these past 24 of being "Ratio'd" by "Trolls".

In reality, the false consensus, which requires an army of fake support bots, is collapsing. That and the unbanning and the end of depreciating viral anti-woke commentary.

If Musk is the leader of this mass awakening event, he will be shut down in a second. The elites will cut the length of the leash he has now.

80% of comedy night audiences are leftoid wankers.

Completely unfunny, censored comedy goes over well with audiences that have no sense of humor.

Awesome!!!

The whole idea of employees pressuring their boss into some business decisions (apart from the usual stuff covered by collective bargaining) sounds completely bizzarre to me. It's like GM employees pressuring the company into abandoning manufacturing of their insanely profitable Suburbans and ramping up making of money-losing Sonics instead.

Yep, a whole new world.

That's what happens when Urban Single/DINK Millie Lib Art Major Trust Fund babies make up a huge proportion of your workforce.

Sure, blame the lowly “activist employees.” Sounds like a way to dismiss direct pressure by government agents — some of whom, yes, may have been agents working as employees.

Hate Elon Musk all you want, but he's got one management trick that every boss should emulate

In an email sent just before Thanksgiving, Musk told employees that "all managers are expected to write a meaningful amount of software themselves" and equated one's inability to code as an engineering manager to not being able to ride a horse as a cavalry captain. Musk's point is salient, and one I've made before: Managers need to be able to do the same work as those they are managing.

Managers have become alarmingly distanced from the average worker, making calls based on guesses that aren't informed by actual labor. This frustrating separation has poisoned most of modern management, creating a class system within organizations where a bloated sect of detached traffic cops extract labor without participating in or properly valuing it.

Altogether, the Twitter Files — an ongoing story — paint a portrait of clear and inevitable partisan bias at one of the most dominant speech platforms in history. A small handful of very left-wing executives, who naturally perceived most opinion right of center as dangerous, worked tirelessly to limit those opinions from view. Empowered to censor “unsafe” content, and protected by a team of people who shared their political orientation, the executives produced, in a legal and decentralized manner, a key component of our defacto state censorship apparatus. While we don’t know for sure this is also happening at Google, Meta, or TikTok (which is for some reason still allowed to operate in this country), I think it’s a safe bet we’re looking at an industry-wide affliction.

But I do have questions.

Where is the full list of shadow-banned accounts? Which political campaigns, specifically, communicated with Twitter, and what specifically was taken down? What about requests from foreign governments? What about requests from our own government?

“This relationship metastasized into something very close to authoritarianism during the Covid-19 pandemic, when a single state narrative was written by the press, and ruthlessly enforced by a fifth and final fount of power in the newly-dominant technology industry.”

You may be onto something here. Since none of these blue-haired content moderators are irreplaceable, they hardly had any real power to pressure twatter bosses into anything.
