What are your opinions about this?
I'm having an absolute field day reading the daily sh!t storm thats begun.
Glad that there's free speech on the platform. At least people with more center to right wing beliefs dont have to worry about getting shadow banned.

I was loving when he fired the girl who banned Trump.
Who cares, Next week there will be a new anti-social media platform.
it's a pretty big deal, until another flavor of censorship arises.
Cancel culture is still alive and well, so outspoken voices now allowed to speak will still face the wrath of the woke.
But how many of those platforms ever gain marketshare? Twitter has monopolized the market.Originally Posted by bluetoy
I agree, but atleast you can have a platform with disagreements.
Imagine, I got banned from twitter permanently for stating "Only biological women have the gift of giving birth"
in general the right sees posts, discussions, arguments from both the left and right. In general the left only sees posts, discussions, arguments from the left.
This will be a rude awakening for some lefties, and and enlightenment for others. Look at Bill Mahar who is certainly not a right winger, but is adopting some "right wing" positions. In his case it's not Twitter, but a similar "conversion" could happen via Twitter. This assumes some degree of willingness to hear out alternative views, which is probably optimistic.
in general the internet is not a place where minds are changed.
I think it’s awesome he did it, free speech is an absolute MUST, despite what the snowflakes think. It’s really sad when speech gets censored, and people get banned for silly things. I don’t think he really planned to but someone on a Twitter told him to and he said “how much”? Kinda like when Obama was talking trash about Trump, making him want to run for president, lol.
Love that the Arabs have a controlling hand in this...gonna be fun.
As if that’s relevant to anything…….…old Twitter was insanely restrictive and tons of the accounts were fake, it’s been a giant scam perpetuated on the public to push a common goal. It’s about time someone with some some common sense and pride has control.
Like I said, Arabs (and their eastern allies) and their penchant for democracy and free speech, and with controlling stakes.....will be fun to watch. It's been a free ride so far for Twitter users so will be interesting to see how they (major shareholders) monetize this to get their money back. Truth Social and it's like competitors are failing financially so curious to see how this converts "real" users to cashflow (and without driving Tesla down even more).
