Elon Musk’s treacherous Twitter takeover has revealed that despite his lies about free speech, he is nothing more than a typical right-wing miscreant whose business acumen and intelligence are profoundly flawed and severely lacking
How challenging will it be for Elon Musk to provide ‘free speech’ on Twitter? article from DNA India
Much has been written about Elon Musk’s troubled acquisition of Twitter and unsurprisingly, the scathing pattern of delusional maladies inflicted upon its users and ex-employees are quite revealing. When a narcissistic, self-centered right-wing billionaire who shares a lot of the same character flaws as the twice-impeached, one term minority-elect former president* he emulates, whose playbook he’s using to justify trolling everyone that hurts his feelings because his delusions make him believe he’s God’s chosen one, the truth becomes blatantly obvious.
Musk, who has a long history of erratic, destructive behavior, and a multitude of delusions about the media, has lied routinely about buying Twitter to enable free speech when all he wanted to do was turn Twitter into a Trumpian fascist authoritarian tool he could use to enable the sleazy right-wing trash he calls friends to gaslight their lies and misinformation. Given Musk’s lies about the safety of the self-driving Autopilot feature of his Tesla vehicles and a multitude of other things, and their history of being anything but safe, it should surprise absolutely no one that he lied about the intentions of his Twitter purchase as well.
Despite his claims of ‘restoring free speech’ to Twitter, Musk’s deluded actions make his claims untenable. Allowing a Treasonous former president* responsible for starting an insurrection against the U.S. Government in an illegal attempt to stay in power back on Twitter after a lifetime ban for inciting violence while banning an account that tracked his flights, journalists and other critical corporations, reveals just how much of a liar Musk is and serves as another prime example of his fantasies clashing with reality and truth. In typical Trumpian fashion, all he cares about is harming his enemies by monetizing hate, fascism, and bigotry because that’s who he is.
Musk’s lies about ‘free speech’ became more blatantly obvious with his acquisition of Twitter when he allowed right-wing trolls to spread their lies but silenced those who told the truth. More will be written about Musk’s delusional ignorance and his evisceration of Twitter as time goes by but now it’s impossible to hide the facts that he cannot be trusted, his loyalties lie in all the wrong places, and that, like his hero, he is a sore loser. Allowing feckless wastes of human flesh posing as politicians to spread their lies and conspiracy theories with total impunity reveals Musk’s true colors and intentions and Twitter may never fully recover.
