He can't be all bad, he works at a homeless shelter:

I believe a lot of serial killers do that to allay suspicions.

Hey wait a second....

hundreds of companies get government subsidies, including others owned by musk. what's your point?

If that's the case, then he's no more a con man than any other entrepreneur....

I DIDN'T SAY HE WAS EITHER, AND YOU DIDN'T ANSWER MY QUESTION.  i won't waste my time any longer.

In Twitter's case, the government was paying for what people were & weren't allowed to say, and trying to control what people thought or felt about it....

Well, I wouldn't blame chefzombie for not knowing...
The mainstream press is trying real hard to bury this story, & the right wing press is apathetically saying that musk is confirming what they already knew & moving on to something more current...

 sorry, les, but the magic files are a nothingburger. they prove nothing, and do nothing but add to the BS on twitter.
   now tell me, how do you feel about musk allowing and encouraging the planners of the insurrection in brazil to do their planning on twitter? how do you feel about him encouraging  the destruction of democracy?

First, there's no proof, then the proof is "a nothingburger"???
Yeah, I'm trying to find evidence that musk is responsible for Brazil (and I can't deny there's evidence of that), but there's also evidence that the old Twitter controllers helped Lula da Silva & suppressed support for Jair Bolsonaro.
And of course, the rioters in brazil, like anyone else, didn't use just one social network.

And keep in mind, the government tried to shut down Parlor over just a few users, when the j6 rioters really using the usual establishment social networks.

I don't know much about the guy-except he's real creepy looking, and seems like a blowhard.

just off the top of my head i recall reading in the first twitter files that the memo was they didn't want to repeat "the mistake of 2016" which refers to the DNC leaks which threw a wrench in Hillary's doomed campaign. that would tend to indicate they saw that result as a bad thing?

IN other words they wanted to make sure the absolutely true Hinter Biden story went away the same way the DNC's absolutely true emails showing how Hilary's people undermined the Sanders campaign at the expense of democracy.


Meanwhile, Hunter Biden is a well known screw up and no one would have cared abuot the story otherwise.

It's not the crime it's the cover up! some of the older posters might remember that phrase

I aint on Tweeter, nor could I afford his cars- so I pay him no mind. And he always looks like if he grinned his face would crack.
