Musk has not fooled me. I see him as just another global capitalist with his own agenda. What's in it for Musk? What's in it for me? Nothing and I'm not stupid enough to give my money to Musk.

People posting comments on Twitter must be aware private company's are not subject to the 1st amendment. The federal government is required to comply with the rights enumerated in the Bill of Rights. While I do not agree with suppressing anyone's freedoms, Twitter is not prohibited from censoring content. More speech, not less, is the best way forward.

A person born with two X chromosomes is a male while a person born with one X and one Y chromosome is a female. This is an irrefutable fact, unchangeable. A man is an adult human male, and a woman is an adult human female. A girl/woman cannot transition to a boy/man.

Democrats have lost their minds when Donald Trump destroyed the crooked Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election, and survived the corrupt politically motivated persecution from the Democratic Party-aligned FBI/DOJ.

Musk is just another con man. His shtick has been to blind us with his wealth. So, he got to show off for awhile. Now he is expected to "run" Twitter as well as Tesla. How's that working out for ya?

"He’s like Captain America, Jesus Christ, and P.T. Barnum all rolled into one!"

Interesting how the Orangeman and Musk could be described as one and the same. 😁

People will catch on eventually. Sadly it will become apparent at some point that he’s just playing with people for his own ends. Kinda brilliantly though.

It appears Mr Musk believes he is the reincarnation of various Ayn Rand characters from Fountainhead or Atlas Shrugged . Both attempts to reanimate Fred Nietzsche as a proponent of American capitalism. I hope her estate is getting residuals from this chicanery and theft of her literary efforts ?

Our hero and savior! As long as I can write poopy and fart on Twitter I have my freedums. “Creating a neural lace is the thing that really matters for humanity to achieve symbiosis with machines.” Musk's version of the neural lace seems to be a mesh that would allow such AI to work symbiotically with the human brain. Signals will be picked up and transmitted wirelessly, but without any interference of natural neurological processes. Essentially, making it a digital brain upgrade. Imagine writing and sending texts just using your thoughts.

Thank you C.J. once again. You read about the Musksters visit to China I'm sure, where he was feted by his buddies in the CCP. The jocular CCP FM and China's minister for industry and information technology yukked it up on Tuesday and Wednesday while Musk promised not to hurt China by promoting "decoupling." Our friend now has TWO completely foreign-owned car plants in that haven for workers, and of course he is giving the CCP all of his technology in return. What could be more appropriate for Musk to kowtow and mingle with the CCP, the premiere guarantors of free speech around the world? All Twitter accounts that criticize the CCP are, of course, still not active.

And...scene.

Elon knows HOW to use the Streisand effect to amplify a story.

So now the average Joe who has never heard of the documentary will go looking for it and another hundred million people will ask, What is a Woman?

Elons own son transitioned.

He has an ax to grind on this culture war battlefield.

Depending on the good graces of billionaires for preservation of essential liberties is not a good plan - and corporations which have achieved monopoly power and can make private law should be stripped of that power, as corporations are created and chartered by governments, and may be regulated or taken out of existence by those same governments, as governments are charged with the preservation of liberty and given the power to make laws to do so. See Justice Clarence Thomas' opinion in the following: https://streamfortyseven.substack.com/p/facebook-and-twitter-should-be-regulated

Anyone looking for help from Musk ... I got a bridge to sell.

Elon is a part of the parasite class but he *is* entertaining--unlike his stick-in-the-mud fellow cabalers--long as you don't take him seriously. The world has gone full Barnum and Bailey, and at this point, all you can do is marvel at the insane shenanigans while tending your organic garden.

Lots to say but I am going to pick the least obvious. Kim Dotcom is a robber baron. He has been on my list of people held in contempt for years and years. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
