Any journalist who is happy *some* of you have had your #Twitter accounts restored, while others are STILL #suspended without a shred of justification, simply do not understand where #elonmusk is going with this.
He plans on monetizing the mob to humiliate you and keep you compliant. Your intentional targeting and discomfort will be a financially valuable form of entertainment.
@KraftTea Wow, that's horrible - and actually kind of brilliant as a piece of populist right-wing memetic warfare.
Basically, Musk is designing this so that he won't *have* to ban journalists any more: he is just empowering the neo-Nazi mob to render anyone non-compliant as invisible and irrelevant.
It's "free speech" as majoritarian ostracism. George Orwell would -- well, not be proud, but more likely say, "That, there? That's what I was talking about."
@jducoeur Except, of course, it isn't majoritarian or democratic in any way.
It's the end of Animal Farm, with pigs walking upright, wearing suits.
All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.
Tea time.
