If this is malice rather than incompetence, it seems... extremely unwise. A big part of what Twitter has left are journalists who are there through inertia; if they have to go to Threads or whatever to reliably get the presidential candidate's Tweets, that's quite bad for Twitter.
I actually feel the opposite. I supported Twitter banning Trump -- a decision made following its own stated rules.
I support Musk fucking with the political process with his purely partisan decisions at odds with his stated rules. It's his web site. He paid handsomely for it.
If he wants it to be TruthSocial, he should have it. And anybody with a lick of decency will avoid it.
Yes of course. The issue here is not left vs right. The issue is “man-child thinks messing with politics and free elections is funny, and that he’s entitled to it because he bought a plot of land on the internet.”
