I would advise Elon to contact a man named Joshua Moon and ask him for his thoughts on how to combat deplatforming and defend free speech. In all seriousness though this is a fun shitshow to follow, he seems to genuinely believe pissing off every group is a good way to do business and that sure looks like what he's doing now.

This is damn interesting. He's laying the case for ignoring the slactivists - this is NOT aimed at us, it's aimed at the board and the investors.

This elongated muskrat may be smarter than I thought.

More evidence that he does just want to kill the service, but will happily point the finger at anyone else if he can. Today it’s “being cancelled”. Tomorrow it will be ddosing or hacking by disgruntled former employees.

Echoes of what’s going on with the Farms, except in this case the operator wants it to die as quickly as possible and has fired everyone who can fix it.

I guarantee you it’ll be down or severely degraded by Tuesday.
 
He's gonna have to deal with ads like we did back in the day. Drop Pepsi and Pfizer and replace them with fleshlight and birch gold group ads. You can run a solid operation without the help of top tier advertisers.

Most of the people fired look like useless breathers drawing a paycheck to be cancer, in useless departments that did nothing but alienate normies and drive off advertisers by appeasing indigent retards pushing grooming and other sick shit.

Unless he turns it into as much of a right-wing echo chamber as it was previously a left-wing echo chamber, that's not going to happen.

Has anybody heard "Tweeps" before Yesterday, or am I just a boomer who doesn't know the way the kids speak now the way a 54 year old state-run-media asset would?
I'd never heard it before yesterday and honestly if I worked at Twitter I'd never have used it. It feels condescending.

Lots of machine learning workers getting canned. WTF do Twitter need with AI if not for making realistic bots and/or automated jannying?
I wonder how many of them are data cleaners. It's not the same as data entry, and it does take skill to do, but if their programs are "good enough" or they want the programmers to do that cleaning work themselves I can see the existing cleaners being laid off, unfortunately.

I say feel bad for people who were laid off at factories and auto plants in middle America who were just working a job
I do. Every time I hear about it.

almost like the guy retarded enough to get multiple SEC violations for issuing tweets that would affect the stock price of tesla may, in fact, be retarded in some ways

If his long game is to destroy the company, then this is all groovy and I support this anyways, as there is no "good" way to make a twitter. If he really can't believe that major advertisers would pull their advertisements out of Screamingniggertopia, he's remarkably daft.

I truly hope people like this are all terminated. About time to get a real job instead of adult daycare.
Also, lol at "womenintech" and "finance" tags.

I honestly think these people are just taking the piss. The trend started after that one linkedin Lady did it and became infamous pretty fast. Now these other women just do it because it gets them attention and I assume as a way to mock people. "I GET RED WINE AT MY JOB. I BET YOU WISH YOU HAD THAT POOR FAG!"

I think he's also letting people know so they can then target the cucked corporations too. Disney shareholders asked the C-Suites in multiple meetings whether woke capeshit was gonna make them money or turn away audiences in the long run. Same with Proctor&Gamble and other large globocorpos.

If advertisers are going to openly push agendas, then retaliation in the form of hatemail, boycotts and other tactics are fair game.

Voting with your wallet is still the best way to do things. (Although if a couple of corrupt execs get "In Minecraft'ed" I wouldn't see that as a loss either.)

Not convinced it was really a left wing echo chamber except on tranny rights issues.

On stuff that matters, the opposite was often claimed and they even did research on it.

Is this some 4D Chess move to tell all those corporations that have turned their backs on Twitter that appeasing fascists will never work? Or rather his sales pitch "Look these idiots take money from us so we have to up the payment model to makew up for it. Nothing I could do *snooort* (Oh sorry)

I suppose the caveat there is the algorithms tend to play nicely when every A wants a B, and conservatives tend to be more homogenous of a bloc than liberals.

So you could have a greater portion of liberals overall, but 'liberal' content would have less amplification because black power content really doesn't appeal to environmentalist hispanics. Meanwhile, if you watch Jordan Peterson, there's a good chance you'll want to see what Ben Shapiro has to say.

You got misinformed there friend.
It all depends on whom you define as political right.
For example, the Republican party is a party of capitalist shills and cuckservatards, and is almost completely socially liberal and promoting individual freedom - with minor exceptions, such as trying to kill anti-Israel/pro-BDS speech or having some books on gender removed from libraries. This party is far right on economics, center on social issues.
The Dems are almost as far right on economics, but are far left-ish on social issues.
These are both centrist entities.
Their speech is NOT under threat.
The legal speech that is under threat is speech that is illiberal, points out that groups of people are identifiable and can be quite different, while still human, that gender is inner feelings and sex is objective biological truth. Speech that claims peoples, including those from European tribes, are to be allowed an ethnic homeland.
The above speech is all under threat and is periodically removed from all big platforms.
Right-leaning and cuckservatism are not a threat and not under threat. It's the actual right that's under threat.
Also, if we still had an actual left, i.e. a left that's socialist and seeks redistribution of wealth and nationalizing industries, that would also be under severe threat.
