This is a clusterfuck of a deal. I cancelled my Twitter account (of nobody's interest but mine) with a bleeding heart. I knew Musk paid not nearly enough because the value of FoxNews, Facebook and Twitter put together in the hands of white, narcissistic Fascist Billionaires is going to be the end of democracy as we know it. And what it the price for that? It is the beginning of the hunger games. Poor people will live at the mercy of the few rich. Bow your head, do not look them in the eye and submit or die. The more I read, the more I feel trapped in a bad Steven King book. Handsmaid is just a comedy compared to what is waiting for us. And your suspension, for telling the truth, about the 'wrong' people just proved it. F@#$king shitshow. Sorry for my language.

FFS. So people can post all sorts of harmful stuff on Twitter, Liz Harrington can serve as Trump’s bullhorn on Twitter, but Helen posts some of your content and gets banned? Very disturbing.

I am troubled by the timing of Musk purchasing Twitter and the value placed by private companies on data mining, perhaps to be sold to governments, militaries, intelligence communities, dark money orgs. A good read on privacy issues with regard to companies mining Twitter’s data is here. This could get people killed if the data falls into the wrong hands. https://theintercept.com/2022/04/22/anomaly-six-phone-tracking-zignal-surveillance-cia-nsa/

I hope anyone that stays on Twitter that they're careful with their DMs especially journalist.

I see the Vice Chancellor Joseph Slights of Delaware's Court of Chancery ruled in Musk favor yesterday and then Slights resigned!!! I'm sure he likely has a sweet consulting gig lined up with one of Musk's friends to insulate Musk.

Oh, God. I didn’t know Stone was back. I reported Beanz for ban evasion. I’m now seeing a lot of right wing ppl that had long been suspended suddenly back on there with no issue. I’m also getting full on vile replies in my notifications for the first time in a very long time. Good work, Twitter board. This isn’t sustainable.
