@donieosullivan anything happening right now?

@ernie @donieosullivan Aaron Rupar and several other journalists got permanent suspensions for not saying nice things about Elon

@olavf @ernie @donieosullivan I don't think it's permanent, at least not yet. Let's show that the fediverse has fact-checking built in.

@piccolbo this implies permanent unless Elon waffles

@olavf Thanks, that looks permanent. I've read elsewhere Musk was running a vote to decide the length of the suspension. Maybe Rupar is considered beyond redemption, or maybe it's all of them.

@piccolbo so far as Aaron is concerned, his personal bet is that he suggested that Elon has been exempting himself from official policy.

And yeah Elon ran a poll. Apparently he didn't like the results so there's a new poll. That's all I know about that.
