"By banning some of us, Musk is sending a message to everyone else: Comply with the dictator or lose access. Twitter has become a virtual simulation of authoritarian rule."

"But Musk didn’t build Twitter. We, collectively, turned the bird app into a consequential power. If it remains under the control of a man who sees journalists as enemies, we have a moral responsibility to fly the coop."

Yup. Deleted my account the day he reinstated Trump. Saw what the future was then.

Apropos this thread, so you saw that #Twitter would stop suspending people casually, and you just weren't cool with that.

I'm just laughing that in a thread worrying about people being suspended, you're talking about quitting because that wasn't being done as much as you'd like.
