Elon Musk plans to reinstate nearly ALL previously banned Twitter accounts — to the alarm of activists and online trust and safety experts. The decision will have dangerous consequences, particularly for vulnerable communities. https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2022/11/24/twitter-musk-reverses-suspensions/ #twitter #twittermigration #tech #technology #elon #TwitterMigrate

@taylorlorenz The right has been working the refs on Social media, but were not effective.
They convinced Musk thatTwitter is anti Conservative. This is clear after reading a bunch of his posts.
Now he is the ref.

Musk's thinking on Bias is not based on actual data, but on vibes. RightWingers got suspended for violating #Twitter's TOS, which prohibited certain things like dead naming. It was the right that violated that TOS, not the left.

@spocko @taylorlorenz “Anyone knows” is a convenient rhetorical dodge to prevent actually looking at data you want to avoid challenging your interests.

@malacandra @taylorlorenz Exactly.
In the replies there were some links to data proving his statement is not true. His "reply guys" instantly come in and said Musk has "insider knowledge" that would prove he is correct (but if course he won't show it)

@taylorlorenz @spocko Why bother proving something that “everyone knows”?!?!
