BREAKING: Elon Musk has terminated his deal to buy Twitter, which is shocking because I didn't think he knew how to pull out of anything.

Apparently, Twitter's the only thing Musk pulls out of ...

Twitter now belongs to Musk

His first foray into media.  I predict a crap show.

If he keeps Twitter the way it is, he'll be fine.  If he adds filters advertisers and users may abandon.

Musk is an authoritarian, a Friend of Putin and Trump. We know what he will do.

It'll be interesting to see how it plays out. I don't care one way or the other. I'm expecting Musk to clean house, move the headquarters out of SF, and that the "private companies can do what they want" energy will completely change. Twitter will suddenly become a "threat to national security" that promotes and allows "hate speech" and "misinformation." I think these predictions will end up being pretty spot on, regardless of any of the merit behind it.

I hope Musk lets anybody twat about anything. It's good to know who the racists, traitors, domestic terrorists, anti-Semites and criminals are.

You're right, of course. People with half his intellect and none of his vision will continue to call Musk all sorts of nasty things - and he'll continue to laugh at them, which will only make them more unhinged. Interesting times ahead.

I tend to agree.

The problem, though, is that throughout a portion of our society, being racist or being an anti-Semite is now a badge of honor.

I don't want a Scoopspension, Tony, so I'll just let your blatantly political (and inaccurate) post stand. Have a good one.
