7heaven Posted November 6, 2022 Report Share Posted November 6, 2022 (edited) Someone in his perceived intelligence didn’t or couldn’t understand that Free Speech can be uttered from the mouth, and there is no need to use Twitter which is a digital platform. If they disagree with paying $8 for the blue tick, they can still use Twitter for free just without the blue tick. They also can choose to use other digital platforms to utter their free speech, not necessarily Twitter. And ironically these other people lamenting that they have to pay $8 for “free speech” is also complaining Twitter is firing some of Twitter staff. How do they expect Twitter to pay the salaries of these staff? Edited November 6, 2022 by 7heaven j Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twitter will ban impersonators, Elon Musk says, as users flock to take his name After the announcement by Elon Musk, several accounts that had changed their name to his appeared to be suspended Mon 7 Nov 2022 Elon Musk has said that any Twitter handles engaging in impersonation without clearly specifying “parody” will be “permanently suspended”, issuing the warning after some celebrities changed their display names and tweeted as “Elon Musk” The new Twitter CEO tweeted on Sunday night: “Previously, we issued a warning before suspension, but now that we are rolling out widespread verification, there will be no warning.” On Sunday evening, several accounts that had changed their name to Elon Musk or approximations of Elon Musk appeared to be suspended or placed behind a warning sign, including those of US comedian Kathy Griffin and Australian satirical website the Chaser.

singalion Posted November 8, 2022 Report Share Posted November 8, 2022 Looks like total Chaos is running the business of Musk with twitter! Is this a joke? Oops. Twitter is already trying to rehire workers Elon Musk fired days ago, sources say BYKurt Wagner, Edward Ludlow and Bloomberg November 7, 2022 Twitter Inc., after laying off roughly half the company on Friday following Elon Musk’s $44 billion acquisition, is now reaching out to dozens of employees who lost their jobs and asking them to return. Some of those who are being asked to return were laid off by mistake, according to two people familiar with the moves. Others were let go before management realized that their work and experience may be necessary to build the new features Musk envisions, the people said, asking not to be identified discussing private information. The requests for employees to return demonstrate how rushed and chaotic the process was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is clear that Elon Musk is highly-ambitious, and also thinks a world of himself. As to whether he will be better or worse than Donald Trump, only time will tell... Running a successful commercial enterprise and running a country have one thing in common: knowledge. And there are millions who are able to acquire such knowledge. But there are fewer who have interest in doing these things, and even fewer who have access to the best sources of information to become knowledgeable. What is important is to have MONEY. With enough money and some time, we can become the most expert in running a business and/or running a country, after finding the most outstanding teachers, masters, gurus in these areas. But which already successful person will think that he still has something to learn? Trump thought that his ability to bluff and deceive were perfect for imposing his ideas of super-genius, like drinking bleach, to make "America Great Again". And Musk must think that a one-in-a-million super universal genius like him has placed him far above the rest of humanity, so there is nothing more for him to learn from others. It will be interesting to see.... Hopefully he does not cause too much damage! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't it interesting how LGBTQs we can arrive in this world in any society, family, environment? The most rabid religious conservative families can have offspring who are born LGBTQ. A good example is the case of vice-president Dick Cheney, who has a lesbian daughter. And now, Musk with his transgender daughter. When these rabid religious conservative families have one ounce of decency, having a LGBTQ offspring is sufficient to open their eyes and drop their homophobia. But not all are decent. In any case, society seeing these LGBTQs emerge from such distinguished and proper and holy families should be convinced that homosexuality is not a choice, an environmental failure, but a natural occurrence.

7heaven Posted November 9, 2022 Report Share Posted November 9, 2022 😅 we can see a huge meltdown from the left wing and liberal people with Twitter privatisation. This arose because the new owner Musk publicly stated he preferred a Republican majority in some branches of US government. Previously, Musk was a left wing supporter, now, he has switched sides. Their media buddies, activists etc are working overtime to undermine the new owner such as but not limited to pressuring businesses to suspend advertisements on Twitter, to ridiculing the $8 subscription charge for blue tick etc. The underlying motivation is clear; that they want Twitter to fail under the new owner because he no longer supports left wing people. Such actions are not new as it is very characteristic of them to cancel anybody who disagree with them or have different ideologies as them.

singalion Posted November 9, 2022 Report Share Posted November 9, 2022 (edited) The above complete posts sounds like these "deep state" conspiracy theory claims, I just wonder how many pedophiles Musk will find in the basement of twitter's corporate office this round.... 😂 And always these rhetorical phrases.... "meltdown from the left" . I instantly start laughing when I read such phrases... What "twitter privatisation" also, was twitter no private corporation before Musk took over? To be honest, the blue tick should be a yearly exercise and not a monthly fee. It is obvious Musk "invented" it to drive in money as his purchase of twitter was totally overpriced. People should look back why Trump was suspended on twitter and how long twitter "accepted" the posting of lies by Trump on twitter. Presidents are not kings who can flout rules, lie and spew hate. Other twitter users were suspended or blocked for much simpler violations than Trump. In my view Twitter was quite patient for plenty of years with Trump's tweets. In my personal opinion, US president's shouldn't be on such forums as twitter at all because it confuses the image of political propaganda and the fact that they are office holder. Sure the President can have an official twitter account but then don't use it for political rhetoric or to attack other politicians. If Musk intends to run as a bigger truth social, then good luck... I don't think it will gain a lot of advertisers... I would also not count much on what Musk says today.... that guy is famous for switching opinions faster than you can shake your head. Today he may promote this party, tomorrow another... On a note: drawing the line, what is permitted, accepted etc is not easy for "forums" like twitter and also the effort to keep track of every post and to take a decision on violations is costly and time consuming. Namely twitter is just the forum to post things and is not posting on their own. Edited November 9, 2022 by singalion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please be clear that the $8 verification charge seems only to be a way to generate revenues, since anyone who pays that $8 can get verified. There is no real verification done to make sure that the twitter account that pays that $8, actually belongs to the entity/individual it claims to belong to. This was a free feature under the "old" twitter, where a team actually checked that that account actually belonged to the entity/individual it claims to speak for. Also, Musk had fired about half of Twitter's staff, and then realised that many were required to "keep the lights on", and had to be rehired.
