as others are indicating, at least some of the problems here are: - he recognizes that it’s reasonable to take actions if an account *might* influence his real life. — he mocks others and declares they’re unreasonable when they ask twitter

ok, understandable. so he understands posts can potentially impact safety in the real world. so why does he actively mock some people or groups and make them seem unreasonable when they ask for twitter to help with their safety? do only bi

to paraphrase what i said on the other thread, elon is telling us that, in a very real way, he understands how real world safety may be impacted by posts. it should concern us that he actively mocks and treats groups as hysterical or unreas

it’s worse than simple hypocrisy. it demonstrates that he very well understands that posting things can lead to safety concerns. he is gleeful when some people or groups have safety concerns from posts. often he actively mocks them and port

what makes this so concerning is, elon clearly understands that posts can amplify danger—even if the posted data is public information already, and there aren’t any clear threats, he understands this when it’s about him. if it even slightly

what is so frustrating about this is, musk recognizes that when this account sends out his location (while it is publicly findable) that this information could potentially elevate a threat to his safety. he recognizes this threat and takes

yeah, there’s some truth to what you’re saying. for years more and more people and culture type scenes have very intentionally “gone dark” the best places to eat haven’t been on any food app “best of” lists for years. they haven’t had feat

yeah, that’s what i thought i read, thanks. no outside person asked twitter to “handle” anything. they asked them to review it.
