There's so much Reddit-tier Musk-hate in this thread. I don't really understand it.

  There are legitimate reasons to dislike the man but it's so obvious that the mob is just grumpy that Musk allowed criticisms of the Democratic party line to exist on Twitter.

  He WANTS the attention and being controversial, it worked with him in other companies and he’s trying to apply the same for twitter, you have side that are a die-hard fans that doesn’t see a problem to implant his chip in their minds yet they refused a medical injection under the claim it had a nanochip, on the other side, you have people hate his guts for ruining their safe space discussion platform. My personal take, he is a con and he knows what he’s doing, so let it be, it might shake the industry to something better (say ATproto or activitypub or something else) as usually these events are what drive innovation, or it might destroy the industry marking the end of such technological progress, who knows, grab your popcorn and enjoy the (shit)show!

    The Twitter Files have demonstrated that political operatives have used and abused Twitter in order to force the removal of content deemed inappropriate (such as the story about the Biden family laptop prior to the 2020 election). Before and since Musk's takeover, the corporate press have decried Musk as "dangerous" or "racist-aligned", because they now lack the opportunity to kill inconvenient stories about various political agendae. I have supported Musk as a more conscienscious and pro-human CEO than the previous leadership, though I have zero interest in his Neurolink project and find it dystopian.
