Why do you say this as if the richest person in the world is magically better than a big bank executive?  

Because of his previous track record? Compare him to Zuckerberg/Facebook and you'll see a major difference in motive and character. Zuckerberg/Facebook/Instagram/WhatsApp steal your data and sell it for their own gain. They accept dirty money from people, groups, countries that have bad intent. Please watch the documentary on Netflix called The Social Dilemma if you have time, or at least the trailer.

Who then?

It's in my post, big banks and malicious interest groups (Vanguard and Blackrock to name a few). These groups control the media and are not friendly towards the average working person.

Basically every "free" online service sells your data. Twitter already does it and that's not changing under the ownership of Elon Musk.

AMAZING news. No more aggressive censored  and less woke crap . And man oh man there will be some seriously angry extremist feminists since that's their field.

IF this is true then it's basically the end of stan twitter, if they have to verify they're ID, they'll no longer have ability to say whatever they want without consequences... No more random death threats to people at least

Banks and Investment funds invest in everything and there is nothing to suggest that Musk is any better. He isn't doing this because he wants to make the world a better place, he's doing it to control a large section of social media.

Y'all gonna be in a rude awakening when homophobic slurs fill your mentions.

 

No marginalized person with common sense think there is even such a think as 'free speech' since unfiltered bigoted speech has a silencing effect on those it seeks to dehumanize.

Wouldn't the board have some say in what he does? This is terrible. Worse than Zuckerberg

[MaRy]

Well, it’s over.

[Hurem]

As long as he doesn't touch porn, I'm good

[DirtyPony87]

This truly is the worst timeline. We live in a farce.

[HïFidelity]

I’m interested in what his definition or intent behind “free speech” is, because I have a feeling this is gonna get to a 4chan brand of ugly.

 

Especially now that his racism has been verified.

I'm not sure because he's buying the company in cash  It's not even going to be traded on the stock market anymore

What makes you think a conservative man in his 50s is ok with porn  

 

Best to use your imagination from now on

[DatChickDoe]

Social media should be limited more, it is causing unnecessary tension and hate among people. This guy has sinister plans

COVID misinformation would be one example of the sort of free speech he wants.

We’ll he’s been mentioning every account should be a real person not anonymous. So that probably will cut down on alot of porn. 

[Breathe On Moi]

Are we about to witness the first mega dictator of the western world with the use of social media and wealth? 
 

stay tuned

[Donquizote]

The end of SJW. We love to see it. Hope twitter wont ban any user just because they disagree with SJW POV

[QueenBLadyG]

What's a SJW? Or being WOKE? And how are they bad, exactly?
