Elon directly ordered the takedown of the account of @chadloder, one of the most prominent and effective antifascist researchers in the US.

(Not mentioned in the article: Elon did so at the request of Andy Ngo, a notorious far right stochastic terrorist.)

A leaked internal message appears to show Elon Musk ordered Twitter staff to suspend a left-wing activist's account

The internal message involved the account of activist Chad Loder and said: "Suspension: direct request from Elon Musk," Bloomberg reported.

MSN

A couple days ago, Elon restored the account of Hitler-loving troll Nick Fuentes.

He did so at the request of Andrew Anglin, a Nazi currently on the lam from the law.

Sensing a pattern here? Yeah. Me too.

@gwensnyder no surprise for me from apartheid emerald boy...
@gwensnyder
When I said to "give Nazis the bird" this was not what I meant
@gwensnyder @campuscodi the apartheid emeralds don't fall far from the mine.
@gwensnyder I’ve pretty much abandoned Twitter as of now. I never wanted to, but Mr. Musk has really given me no choice. It’s like he took over management of a five-star hotel and turned it into a Motel 6.
@gwensnyder You can take the man out of the apartheid, but you can't take the apartheid out of the man.
@gwensnyder That sort of foulness is the reason I left Twitter.
@gwensnyder I been a Twitter user from the time of the Green Revolution in Iran (2009) right up until Mr Musk decided to dis-allow 3rd-party apps - that was the proverbial last straw. I used the platform mainly to gather news from journalists and activists, so I'm not interested in "trending topics" or being served the bitching of right-wing malcontents. The platform has no purpose for me if I have to wade through trash.
@gwensnyder @chadloder: And want to bet if he's going to run an internal witch-hunt in order to find out who leaked it and "ruined" his "perfect" reputation as a supporter of Transparency In Twitter?
@riley @gwensnyder @chadloder Does he have any employees left? The only ones I can think of would be the H-1Bs who are effectively indentured servants since they risk deportation if they get fired or quit.
@c3141mtd @riley @gwensnyder @[email protected] sycophants and trapped foreign nationals. Elon's favorite kind of workers.

@gwensnyder @chadloder

free speech apartheid clyde, class interest grifter

@gwensnyder @chadloder Why not Musk is a Nazis. Don't most of these kinds of scum together ?
@gwensnyder @chadloder basically twitter is fucked beyond redeemability I guess...

@gwensnyder @chadloder

With all the continuous #data we are receiving, why do people still not come to the conclusion that the #ElongatedMuskrat is a #Nazi?

@iuculano @gwensnyder @chadloder I believe that some people are used to toxic relationships in their personal lives. One more toxic relationship on that site doesn't faze them!
I couldn't do it. I always GTFO whenever there is a hint of toxicity. I GTFO Twitter as soon as he got there — I insulted his family before leaving, of course.
@iuculano @gwensnyder @chadloder I acted like a school kid! Kicked the garbage cans to get a suspension. So, Twitter punished me by kicking me off permanently! Giving me exactly what I wanted😂😂
@gwensnyder @chadloder It’s his country, he can do what we wants over there”, quote from the 1930s, probably.
@gwensnyder @chadloder Just wow wow!
Everyone with a brain should leave #Twitter
@chadloder @gwensnyder I’m astounded that ppl still find value over there.
@gwensnyder @chadloder TL:DR Twitter continues to be a clusterfuck.

@gwensnyder

What a terrible article, describing Chad Loder as left-wing, apparently for being an anti-fascist activist and using they/them pronouns, which is mentioned for no other apparent purpose.

To be clear, I don't see much room between being "an anti-fascist activist" and being pro-facist.

@johnlogic @gwensnyder Perhaps I am misunderstanding you, but are you suggesting that there is not much room between two diametrically opposed ideals? One is opposed to fascism, one is for fascism. There is a pretty huge space in that.

@johnlogic @gwensnyder

What are you talking about Willis?

@SpaceLifeForm @gwensnyder

The headline from the linked MSN/Business Insider article: "A leaked internal message appears to show Elon Musk ordered Twitter staff to suspend a left-wing activist's account"

The quality of the "journalism" goes down from there.

@johnlogic @gwensnyder

Re: Context is key

Apologies.

I did not see the start of thread, so I made a grave mistake, and assumed what were your alleged words were actually from the article.

My bad.

Thank you for clarifying.

@gwensnyder @chadloder What the hell does it take to get people to stop taking Ngo seriously 🤦‍♂️

@gwensnyder @chadloder

The Ngo connection should be 50% of the article

@gwensnyder In what way is Andy Ngo a terrorist?
@jlcrawf @gwensnyder Search Twitter for his handle to see what he's been up to for the past ten years. Among other things, he's been a lying propagandist for the Proud Boys and has led hate campaigns against folks who oppose them while posing as a journalist.
@skry @gwensnyder
Lying propagandist does not equal terrorist.
The only groups that I have seen him oppose are BLM and Antifa. The two groups that are in actuality terrorist groups. And by terrorist groups, I mean that they are terrorizing communities by setting businesses on fire and physically assaulting people, not just using mean words.
@gwensnyder This Andy Ngo guy is an agitator that plays victim.
@gwensnyder @malwaretech @chadloder and people still doubt that his intention is to amplify the fascist discourse on the media? Social networks are doing this, which is aggravating due to the coming elections.
@gwensnyder @chadloder My friend and journalist @easternborder had his account suspended after a campaign by Putin’s useful idiots over there

@gwensnyder @chadloder

Let's follow him here.

Boost the hell out of this and any other person who are targets of the fascists.

@gwensnyder @chadloder So EM is a big believer in "free speech" for the far right wing. SMH
@gwensnyder But no reputable scholar should still be posting on twitter.

@gwensnyder @chadloder

Of course musky did! He's a fascist incel who has money so he gets laid. If not for his vast wealth, most women would run away screaming. Can we say, eeeewww?!?

@gwensnyder @chadloder Old Yellow Stain doing what he does best. First he runs his mouth, then he runs away.
Not surprised at all. All big techs are pro fascists. Technofascism is the new normal.
@gwensnyder @chadloder free speech for me but not for thee seems to be the Republican moto, so that's not really surprising.
@gwensnyder @chadloder Cannot suspend account without viable evidence of intent hurting person or persons. Limited freedom of speech.?
@oneredlite @gwensnyder @chadloder That all changed when Elon took over. Now people are suspended for whatever his most ardent followers don't like, along with speech against that. Many were suspended for putting Mastodon handles in their profiles, or opposing the changes at Twitter, also. It's completely arbitrary. Free speech is a joke there.
@gwensnyder @chadloder Reminder that anyone still using #Twitter is 100% complicit at this point.

@Meeche @gwensnyder @chadloder

that's the ugly truth about fascism, it's incredibly popular with 40% of the population, and most of the other 60% quickly learn to just go along with it

@ares @Meeche @gwensnyder @chadloder I will never go along with fascism.
