@pbump Trolls like to accuse Democrats of wanting to isolate themselves in echo chambers. I avoid doing that — which is pretty easy living in Midland, Texas — and I am always open to dialogue with people of different viewpoints, but from Twitter to the comments WaPo, Musk's amen chorus is deafening. Thanks for putting things in context.

@LoveForTX @pbump I really am shocked at what i am reading here, its actually funny. Its since musk took over, there has been so much shit flying just because he acquired the blue bird. First they force him to go through with his deal, then they want him to leave and are calling him a fascist. Its clear most Americans will never be able to work together if they call themselves nazis and facists and marxists all day. Good luck over there!

@Morreeuh @pbump The Twitter board had a duty to the company's shareholders to get them the value promised by Musk in the offer. What's in the best interest of Twitter users and society at large is a different matter. In the midst of all this, Musk has helped tank the value of Tesla stock. Surely there will be shareholder lawsuits stemming from that. The Federal Trade Commission and European Commission will inevitably act. Musk has "sewed the wind, and … shall reap the whirlwind.".
