Musk got pissed when he got called out for censoring Turkey's tweets during election.
Musk is NOT YOUR FRIEND.
Unless a billionaire friend is giving me money.... And I usually just eat the Turkey ;)
Musk bought Twitter to make more money on tax losses and not pay tax. No one here is paying the highest marginal tax rate. At billions 37% tax rate is a lot and that's not including the corporate tax rate. He's gaming the system and knows he bought a loser. He can carry forward losses and pay himself what he wants. This is what rich people do.

You mean pay himself whatever salary, benefits, perks etc. he wants and then if it doesn't work out, just declare bankruptcy and move on? Trying to understand.
If the thing dies guess what, Musk won't pay federal taxes personally for life given what he paid for it. He'll keep getting government contracts for his other businesses. He just won't take income from them and pay himself from Twitter as it slowly dies as it was before. Kind of a brilliant strategy assuming he truly is the sole owner of Twitter.
Twitter is a business, so how can Musk not pay federal taxes personally?
"WE ARE SEEING ATHLETES DROPPING DEAD" AFTER TAKING "THE INJECTION."
"FOUNDATIONS... WHICH INCLUDE PEOPLE LIKE... BILL GATES, [SAY] THAT THE WORLD'S POPULATION SHOULD BE 500 MILLION TO BE IN... SYNC WITH NATURE..."
Although many people have taken issue with @elonmusk 's stance on the safety and efficacy of the COVID injections, anybody who believes they're killing weapons (and they are, hear more about that from a pharma insider here: https://sensereceptornews.com/?p=15980), will think his father, Errol, is right on the money.
"If we come to COVID, for example, we have a situation there where 99.8% of people who currently... get this virus... recover, which means it has a better recovery rate than flu and yet... seven-and-a-half-billion people are being pushed to have the mRNA injection, so, I don't find that very appealing," Errol says in the below clip, taken from a July 17, 2022 YouTube vlog on a channel dubbed "Errol Musk - Dad of a Genius." (Channel here: https://youtube.com/@errolmusk-dadofagenius7280)
Errol goes on to highlight statements Nobel Prize-winning virologist Luc Montagnier said about SARS-CoV-2 while he was alive.
"In 2020 on the 27th of March, Dr. Luc Montagnier, who was the discoverer of the... HIV virus... for which he received the Nobel Prize, said that having looked at the virus [SARS-CoV-2], it contains strands of malaria and strands of HIV," Errol says. He adds: "I would like to believe the authorities, but I'm inclined to think there's something wrong."
Elon's father goes on to reference Montagnier's analysis of the COVID injections, saying that "Dr. Montagnier also said about the vaccine... in 2020, on the 27th of March, that if you inject people with mRNA, you will, in fact, cause antibody deficiency... In other words, their immune system will be weakened if you give them the injection."
Plainly linking the COVID injections to sudden deaths, Errol says that Montagnier "said this, [and] I'm simply repeating what he said... [the injections] could lead in time to many people simply dropping dead and we are seeing that. We are seeing athletes dropping dead."
Indeed, the COVID injections are strongly linked to excess all-cause mortality. Physicist Denis Rancourt has shown this to be the case, unequivocally: https://sensereceptornews.com/?p=21203. There are also mounds more evidence supporting this obvious fact: https://sensereceptornews.com/?p=18403. In January of 2023 NBA All-Star John Stockton also claimed that he knew of at least 150 professional athletes who had “dropped dead” since the rollout of the injections and said the number could be in the thousands: https://sensereceptornews.com/?p=17258
Errol goes on to talk about the "foundations" that espouse population-control efforts. Including Bill Gates' own Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.
"We are told without any shame on the part of these foundations and, which include people like... Bill Gates, that the world's population should be [at a population of] 500 million [people] to be in link with nature, or in sync with nature..." Errol says. He notes that there are fewer people on the planet than is commonly thought, noting that "the vast majority of places like the United States, which I've traveled through extensively, are empty... [and] internal China is empty."
As for his claims regarding Luc Montagnier's own claims about SARS-CoV-2, it seems he understood Montagnier's position accurately. See following video...
It would be better if he crossed the Rubicon and demanded that the FBI officials involved would be charged with witness tampering and conspiracy to commit.
Now that would be something, but this is better than nothing.
Twitter's purchase is what is called "a limited hangout".
What's a limited hangout?
So when the government is caught doing something really criminal, to make it appear they are less criminal, they will admit limited culpability or take limited punishment.
Minor unimportant people are fired, or removed, to convince you the problem has been fixed, when it hasn't been.
It's to give the appearance there is accountability.
Twitter wasn't really private as a company. It's intelligence and it never took off because the censorship was so obvious on it. Elon is making it seem more credible.
This is one of the scenes from What Is A Woman that Twitter now says is hate speech.
We will still stream the movie here tonight in its entirety at 8 ET. Twitter has the next 12 hours to decide whether they want to be a true free speech platform or not.
Is this a self-coup of Twitter, like when Trump hired Scaramucci to get rid of Rinse Pubics and then quickly fired him (and possibly used him as a double agent, or was he a discarded spy?), or when Erdogan encouraged a coup against himself to oust those disloyal to him?
Elon HAS made comments before about how messed up Twitter Algos, Code, and Server Arrangerments are... I suspect they're messed up on purpose to keep the Woke/WEF disinfo protected as much as possible and prevent actual real debate.
Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp, probably the most influential monopoly in the world. Seems like Threads is a competitor to Twitter, hope it doesn't succeed, Twitter, after Elon's takeover is much better.

Threads will do as well as Meta.
Basically cat is out of the bag. Companies lied to their users for years, and they are huge and wortess echo chambers.
I wouldn't mind having a program screen out pornography so long as I could turn it off. I'd be worried about false positives.
This stuff can be used for good. Years and years ago, somebody claimed to have released a virus that if it found nudity on your computer it would wipe everything. This was back in 2000 or so, today, it's actually reasonably possible.
The New York Sun ran an intriguing story yesterday headlined, “Elon Musk Pledges to Pay Legal Bills of Twitter Users Mistreated for Posting on the Site.”
The Sun’s article referred to a Saturday tweet (or is it “X” now?) by Elon Musk, where he promised to pay the legal bills of anyone mistreated by their employer on account of posting or liking something on Twitter, I mean X...
As you can see, Musk’s tweet garnered over 735,000 “likes” as of this morning. The response has been strong. Nobody yet knows what the rules or criteria are, and no one’s legal bills have been funded so far. But enthusiasm is running high.
What might unfair treatment look like? Here’s one recent example:
According to the related article from Inside Higher Ed, Mark Tykocinski resigned as president of Thomas Jefferson University and as dean of the university’s medical school, after being outed for “liking” tweets critical of coronavirus vaccines, gender-affirmation surgery and college diversity, equity and inclusion offices.
Sounds like my kind of guy. I’d have made him king for life, but apparently the Board of Governors didn’t agree. If he were pressured into resigning, it seems to me that Mr. Tykocinski would be a terrific candidate for some legal assistance from Twitter, sorry, I mean X.
I have no idea what Musk’s goals are, since he didn’t say. But first, even if it was inadvertent, it was a masterful marketing strategy. Even the lack of details is helping as tens of thousands speculate what it could mean. Politico even wrote a hopeful article wondering whether Musk’s offer could drive Twitter out of business. Second, the announcement might make some employers think twice about disciplining employees over their social media activity. And third, it could encourage more people to be bolder in their posts, increasing the amount and interest level of the content.
Who knows? But it’s interesting.
Yet I was banned from Twitter for a third time for suggesting that Fauci, Collins, and Bourla be brought to justice.

@Patrick,
Your problem is that you're retired and hence haven't been persecuted by your employer. I do agree that there is hypocrisy here - why offer to fund people ($$$) in their struggle, while not banning those opposing "the narrative" (which costs $0) is off the table? Maybe Elon is a limited hangout.
Unpublished Blog Post From Deep in the Information War July 28, 2023 About a month ago my political account on Twitter was abruptly and permanently suspended, for “violations of the TOS” with no specific reason or rationale given. A dozen appeals were greeted with one of two different bot posts explaining that after further review it was permanent. Almost all of my politics on social media were limited to that one account. But now I appear to be shadowbanned across facebook, instagram, youtube, google and my original twitter account. They’re all connected to the same phone number, including my now banned account. All of my google, facebook and twitter accounts are having me log in daily now from my laptop, using a two-step verification code sent via SMS to my phone. It wasn’t like this a month ago, I would always stay logged in to all of those accounts and set my preferences that way. I had created the political account on twitter during the pandemic, largely so that I could heckle our power-crazed dictator governor during the shutdowns. Doing this from my normal social media accounts- which generally promote my creative work- wasn’t right for my personal brand, and could also result in professional reprisals against me or my wife, as I live in a liberal city. That twitter account was based around a cartoon avatar, used lots of humor, never was abusive, rude or threatening; often I behaved like an ombudsman. I created hundreds of memes. That account survived the covid era; the great twitter purge after Jan 6, and both the 2020 and 2022 elections. But it did not long survive the Linda Yaccarino era at twitter. Since no reason was given other than ‘violations of the TOS’, I do not know specifically why my political account on twitter was banned. On my last day, I had made a fun one-liner at Adam Schiff’s expense that was getting hundreds of likes; I had made a meme criticizing support for the Ukraine War, and was promoting RFK Jr.’s run for the Democratic nomination. I was critical of Congressman Thomas Massie’s reluctance to censure Schiff. My main guess is that opposing the war effort was my main thoughtcrime, although the sum of all of those positions shows a dissident or anti-establishment view. Apparently that is no longer allowed. The sinking horror is that now my other accounts at google, meta, twitter which don’t delve into politics- are being shadowbanned.

I think he was directed to purchase it to restore it's image as a free speech platform. It's designed to hinder real speech platforms.
You have to abandon all "big tech".
Musk works for the DOD, which means he works for intelligence. Twitter's purchase is what is called "a limited hangout".

In Vijaya's Twitter, nothing would have happened to the Doxxer.
OK, Elon is EVIL
He is one of them. No one should trust him at all now.
So when the government is caught doing something really criminal, to make it appear they are less criminal, they will admit limited culpability or take limited punishment.

Elon Musk rang the alarm on house prices and commercial real estate this week. Here's why he's worried about a property disaster.
So this is the tipping point for you, not the Baphomat costume, not the pedo-father, or Eye of Horus mother?
You can't even "Share" it to Groups you are a member of, or tweet it unless you physically copy the address.

I'm thinking this was a self-coup, either to find code or to out "Twitter Safety" execs.

Elon may well be a kind of limited hangout.
