Things that Elon has done that make this comment absurd: - Banned journalists (among others he didn't care for) - Discrediting journalism accounts with "state sponsored media" labels - Require journalism organizations to pay to provide they are an actual source (I doubt they were targeted in the checkmark fiasco, but they were impacted) - Elevating his own platform into your feed where posts half-truths and elevates authoritarian right-wing talking points and conspiracies. Speaking of... - Publicly espousing conspiracy theories about globalists that need reining in (hear the dog whistle?) - Literally mocking journalists - Auto-replying to legitimate inquiries with a poop emoji - Selectively using right-wing voices for his politically-laden "Twitter Files" disclosure - Providing near-zero pushback to requests for content removal from authoritarian governments But sure, see what you want to see. And before you turn around and tell me I'm doing the same, my opinion on Elon was positive as he was buying Twitter. I've observed him, I've read what he was to say. Either I never knew him (more likely) or buying Twitter has changed him substantially.
