@Noupside

because any attempt to prevent twitter from being used to destroy democratic institutions, subvert elections and incite violence is clearly left-wing bias

I think he mostly pulls for leaving his wealth untaxed and not enforcing labor laws against his companies. That he needs to be a jackass to do it is a fun bonus for him now.

@Noupside Here in Brazil, #twitter is famous for its right-wing bias. There must be something wrong with Elon Musk's political compass. But come on, what am I saying, he's the one who brought Donald Trump back to #twitter...

@Noupside In fact, #twitter is one of the major contributors to the attempted coup d'état we are experiencing at this very moment in Brazil. Many years of massive right-wing extremist presence in this social network, added to the zero-rating policies of the four largest Brazilian cell phone operators from which #twitter benefits (and which allows it to reach potentially any Brazilian cell phone at no cost to its users), have been responsible for the creation of a full-fledged disinformation ecosystem, in which #twitter plays a major role.

@Noupside now that Twitter is bleeding money, not paying rent or other bills, and failed at this short term “goal” of helping Bolsanaro, can we hope musk will get tired of owning Twitter?

@jemcewen @Noupside more likely there will be some sort of unrecoverable failure and his stated goal of furthering a free platform for the press will come to fruition. It just won’t be twitter it will be something else.

@Noupside "twitter personnel gave preference to left wing candidates."
According to this, his users were counting on Twitter to tell them what to read, but "Twitter personnel" showed them the wrong tweets. In this view, the users are looking for a site where they can see comments from friends, colleagues, and celebrities, filtered according to one guy's notions of what's unbiased.

@Noupside Oh crap. Perhaps it's time to sue Musk for something in Brazilian courts. Let's hope he angers Justice Alexandre de Moraes so the lawsuit can go much faster. /hj
