Elon's twitter take over, what could change?

Don’t worry...elonmusk would never allow rampant hate speech and racist rants...would he?

The world can be such a depressing place.

MONEY AND POWER ALWAYS WIN. I hope Twitter fails!

Now Elon gets to dictate who uses twitter. Imagine the suffering you could of helped end with all that money instead of this. Shame on you.

To all the b|tch3s leaving (or crying to leave)...

So when will CBC be removed for misinformation?

Good news!

Wish people would have the courage to stay. I know they are not those kind of snowflakes…….or are they?

Hahahahahahahahahaa

So long Twitter. TwitterCanada

is he doing this so I have to unblock him...!? 😬🙄

Look at the comments and you’ll see why Canada is in such a sad state of affairs. The thought of everyone being able to speak freely without the blue check mark guardians of gotcha weighing in has the left in full melt down mode. Your leftist narrative is crumbling quickly.

Tesla is the ugliest car ever made. Idc how smart it is.

The concern should be exactly why does this egomaniac whant to own Twitter? The way of the world according to Elon

If so, my participation will end, I will follow only a few like some excellent mainstream journalists, this personal account will go Private, and I will allow only those in who already follow me and I know personally.

Too bad.

👏👏👏👏

So free speech on Twitter is essentially over?

Like many will likely go over to the Counter Social platform...

Let's just say the days that you can tweet 'Tesla sucks' and post pieces about Musk baselessly accusing rescuers of children from underwater seacaves of pedophilia are just about over.....

RIP Twitter. Time to ditch social media anyways.

Good deal for shareholders. I'm very happy that their investments have worked out for them. What's everyone's thoughts on how the Profit Motive will protect Freedom and Democracy?

Here it comes

If he allows trump back ….. time to move on

If Musk takes over Twitter, it will become a right wing conspiracy theory social media!

Lol nobody here bats an eye at guys like Bezos and Murdoch controlling the news but a dude buying a spcial media site sends everyone in to a frenzy Elon Musk Twitter

Now we feel the power we need to GET RID OF THE CBC !

What if China demands its diplomats and propagandists are allowed free rein on Twitter? And threatens Tesla’s China operations if he doesn’t comply?

From the looks of these comments the trash will take itself out soon with all the people leaving. Btw..nobody cares you're going to leave...don't announce it..just... disappear. 🥰

Let’s fucking go we can finally get an edit button

This space will become unmanageably trashy.

I have 43B to spend.. should I buy an existing social media company and tweak it a little (for the worse) or idk, help people, or animals or something? F*uck Elon Musk.

He wants our data and he wants to get out of SEC monitoring of his account. He'll being back Trump just to distract and laugh while it all burns

😡

Block him from Canada.

Late to these stories. The usual from CBC defundCBC

A true narcissist will never have enough attention - what’s next for him?

sure.... bird Ap Twitter . Just let Democracy crumble. No big deal..... 🔥🧯❤️‍🔥👩‍🚒

Awful news.

If you want to see what Twitter with unfettered speech looks like, just check out Gab. This platform will be a neo-Nazi cesspool if Elon gets his way.

Kinda surprised CBC would use the phrase…. A white knight ……. I figured you people would deem that racist

love it 🚀🔥

Gross. I actually liked Twitter, but Elon's an absolute loose canon.

Bad news - I’m out

Get ready to be threatened with death by the far right on a daily basis

Step 1 for the new Twitter: slap a “government-funded media” label on CBC

I can’t wait till these billionaire owners make their employees at Bloomberg, Washington Post and Twitter battle it out in a death match like in Anchor Man

blockelonmusk

Welcome to the marketplace of ideas CBC!

Now the algorithm will ask if you REALLY want to say something mean about Elon, billionaires, or taxing the rich while also monitoring for the F word.

Will there be any noticeable changes?

I hope Elon removes the censors on free speech.
