Nice take on our fren Elon. As bad as it is with the lefty billionaires and their technocrat dreams (scientific dictatorship was the term kicked around back in the day), you're right that I dont want Elon's vision either. The elites are determined to whip out the Hegelianism and offer us a shit sandwich or a shit pie; either way they win. As far as Twitter goes, I have little interest in it. Gab welcomes all, even the annoying White Nats and Hitler wannabes. I remember the Westboro Baptist jackasses; they had a right to be disgusting.

Elon is all talk. The goal is to lure the normies and the average Trump supporter back into a walled garden. Shadow bans and what-not allow complete narrative control and the opposite of free speech. People won't even know they're being silenced; bad thinkers go to the quiet room. Whatever Elon represents, it is ultimately not to our benefit. He did not buy Twitter alone.

I fully concur with the 'walled garden' sentiment. Whilst he reinstated Trump (whom I disagree with but I support free speech), Dr Malone and Dr McCullough, it feels like he's dragging an anchor. The general amnesty week has come and gone with no mass unbanning. His banning of Kanye was not backed up by the evidence, and his hypocrisy on 'inciting violence' is astounding in context.

His limited hangouts on topics regarding Twitter censoring people (no s--t, it's why people wanted Elon to take it over), them suppressing Hunter Biden were known stories. He hasn't delivered on the COVID-19 misinformation policies, with Viva Frei asking him when?

I back Gab. I currently operate on Twitter because I wanted to give Elon a fair shake and see first hand for myself by diving in. I see why journalists use it - because other journalists use it to break news, so you get early access to stories. Other than that, it is full of largely safe, tepid, weak "hot" takes, coupled with extreme polarisations with people holding factually inaccurate stances.

I fully anticipate Elon will lose to Gab because Gab holds integrity, where-as Elon is cracking under only mild amounts of pressure.

Someone in journalism almost has to be on Twitter; a lot of relevant information is out there like the riots in Paris over a soccer game or the lame Twitter file relases. A fair journalist will be on most platforms. Telegraph is a great source for relatively unfiltered info on Ukraine.

The selective unbanning is highly suspect. Steve Kirsch is one of the most honest and genuine people that fought the covidians but the silence on his ban is deafening. Trump is a carnie barker and thin-skinned for a supposed NYC businessman. Apparently Elon has thin skin too. The jet twitters were this kid's attempt at drawing attention to the hypocrisy of the rich when it comes to carbon footprints. While I might see it as a fool's errand, he was doing nothing wrong. Frankly I hope Elon breaks Twitter as his personal fiefdom. Nothing like a spoiled, vindictive rich kid to make people move on.

Sorry, but I disagree with you on this matter of safety from threats of death.

There is no acceptable reason for anybody to track and broadcast the whereabouts of a high profile personality and none of your readers would not wish to put someone who seems to be 'level headed' and otherwise truthful, to be put in the ';firing line' of cranks and those that need to 'remove' such champions of REALITY!

Otherwise, Elon still has the backing of all reasonable people that have not succumbed to the Covid, deadly vax and Scanmdemic bullshit we've endured since early 2020.

In-fact, I do have to follow up with a subsequent rebuttal.

The rejection of 'real time DOXes' would mean you'd never see the light of day on the mRNA instability documents, which were, I might remind you, leaked. So no, I don't take a rich billionaire's squabbles with government mandated air tracking (which has been around for many decades) to heart, given it is the very government he empowers. Antifa are US government funded; so are SpaceX, Starlink (used in the Ukraine war, which is in turn used for tracking people to bomb with artillery) and Neuralink.

The man is trying to have his freedom cake and eat from the pot of invasive oppressors. He must pick a lane.

"There is no acceptable reason for anybody to track and broadcast the whereabouts of a high profile personality"

Jeffrey Epstein, Lolita Express.

Bill Gates.

Airforce One.

Anyone who tries to argue 'threats to health' are invoking the same lame arguments the government used. Elon Musk empowered the goddamn US military with spy satellites. Absolute peak hypocrisy. Not to mention the mRNA microfactories which has killed.

Plus he's failed to prove the referencing of public *jet* information could give any insights as to what *car* he's in. In-fact, he hasn't demonstrated chain of causation, and if you truly opposed DOXing, you'd also condemn the siccing of the Twitter mob on the kid in the car (Elon did not file a police report).
