Why is unregulated social media suddenly a problem? They've been doing questionable actions for a decade. How come that when yesterday's misinformation becomes today's possibility, no accounts get unbanned? How come tech platforms have routinely banned the same person's accounts all on the same day? Tell me again about Hunter's laptop; I think that would have been extremely relevant about 2 years ago.

Because it wasn't unregulated social media. It was regulated by people friendly to him. Now, it will be regulated by someone that he has no influence over. I would imagine that Musk doesn't care if he is invited to the cool kid parties.

  On the surface Musk's preferences would appear to be that way, but appearances can be deceiving. Would you be surprised if Musk introduced mandatory digital ID to use Twitter? A sugar-coated limited handout of freedom, combined with the digital ID medicine the globalists have been demanding wouldn't be surprising. If you read his comments carefully, this interpretation isn't far-fetched.

    I don't doubt he could go that way. I just don't think he is loyal to the same people twitter is currently loyal to.

      I suspect that he may be the other goal post and a free-kick will be performed.

News is the traditional messenger they have control over. News is dying and social media is taking over. They're trying to gain control over social media so they can control the message again. Who is they? The two political parties who are just private organizations by the way. When you can't control the message, people start asking uncomfortable questions like, "Why are you allowing companies to outsource jobs and factories to escape labor and environmental regulations while saving a ton of money?" "Why is healthcare so expensive?" "Why haven't you put any type of caps on pharmaceuticals?" "Why are we spending billions on homelessness and homelessness keeps increasing?" "Why did we spend $300 million a day in Afghanistan for 20 years?"
