Twitter stinks especially badly today.
One might say it has a very unpleasant Musk.

If Nazis rejoice when you take over a social media company, you're not a free speech hero!

Elon Musk: “Twitter obviously cannot become a free-for-all hellscape, where anything can be said with no consequences!”
Within hours of Elon’s statement, his fans filled Twitter with racist, antisemitic, Islamophobic, homophobic, and transphobic hate speech.

Brexit and Trump were initially seen as jokes, but the new owner of the social media giant could pose a serious threat to democracy – and a boon for Vladimir Putin

“Watching Musk melt down feels like watching Kanye West melt down feels like watching Trump melt down. We are trapped in a Möbius strip of narcissistic autocrat.”

Twitter removes misinformation policies on the same day that Yevgeny Progozhin, Putin’s chef and chief propagandist, admits that he’s actively involved in trying to manipulate the US midterms.

Capt Smirk fired 1/2 his crew. He’s banning comics: shadow banning unverified users, boldly going where no unbridled ego has gone before.
Says, “$8/mo is the price of a latte.” True.
It’s also cheaper than a T-shirt saying “Rob me. I’m a gullible ass!”

Today might be a good day to download your Twitter archive. Just in case.

Just to be clear, Twitter senior secured bank loans- the top of the capital stack- at $0.60 implies that Twitter- for which #elonmusk paid $44 billion - is now worth less than $8 billion.

Twitter CEO Elon Musk has "continued his rash of brand unsafe actions — including amplifying conspiracy theories, unilaterally reinstating banned accounts such as that of former President Donald Trump, courting and engaging with far-right accounts, and instituting a haphazard verification scheme that allowed extremists and scammers to purchase a blue check."

Elon Musk’s abrupt suspension of several journalists who cover Twitter widens a growing rift between the social media site and media organizations that have used the platform to build their audiences.

Individual reporters with The New York Times, The Washington Post, CNN, Voice of America and other news agencies saw their accounts go dark Thursday.

There is not much to say about that post by #TwitterOwner Elon Musk..
He is full in supporting Russia by limiting his Starlink usage to the Ukrainians and constantly attacks Western support of those people that DEFEND themselves against an unprovoked aggressor

TikTok and Instagram users can scroll with abandon. But Twitter owner Elon Musk has put new curfews on his digital town square, the latest drastic change to the social media platform that could further drive away advertisers and undermine its cultural influence as a trendsetter.

Twitter has a very real chance of going bankrupt in the next 12 months, with no obvious path to escaping it. In a way, that might be the company’s best hope – it is probably the only way it will escape its current owner, to be bought out at a bargain-basement price by someone else.

But before that, Musk has done the opposite of everything he promised with the site. Most users will notice that they get more annoyance from bots than they had before, abuse and hate speech is more widespread, and misinformation spreads much more easily without the site’s curation team watching for it and tackling it. Twitter is even more compliant with censorship and user data requests from dictatorships than it ever was before.

I love the Musk model of just quietly reversing every bad decision because he is physically unable to admit his endless missteps
