@acosta at this point in feel all journalists should flee twitter, as a “when you attack one, you attack all” type of solidarity.

Clear that elon is going to try to completely control narrative for self benefit through twitter

@acosta @acadianrunner
They have no problems circling the wagons in other cases. Surprised they haven’t exited in tandem already.

To your other point re controlling the narrative, it’s beginning to look like all this banning/unbanning is actually an op to keep us talking about Twitter. And here we are…

Apparently #elonmusk feels really bad about that policy, but won't change it..

He did offer to step down if enough bots voted for him to do so.
Do the Saudis he owes money to have a vote?

Will he suspend the Auschwitz Memorial? See text in their Twitter bio as of 2:30 PST 12/18/2022
Also at Mastodon (https://mastodon.world/@auschwitzmuseum), FB & IN
Oswiecim, Polskaauschwitz.org

Looks like a violation of Twitter's policy of promoting other social media platforms.
