Not all conservatives are me.
[quote name="blackwater"]I do think the ADL tends to support bad causes these days, but they are not the only ones boycotting. And no it is not a Jewish conspiracy, although many progressives are Jews. Interestingly enough, a bunch of the boycotters include car companies that compete with Tesla (thinking face emoji) Just in case it wasn't clear before, what I wrote earlier was a joke -- I do not think Elon will turn Twitter into a moderation-free zone. He hasn't even unbanned Trump. Elon is trying to be "moderate." Unfortunately we live in a world where there isn't much middle any more. I already see him getting the Trump treatment in the press -- down to lot of the same adjectives being used. "Chaos" (I don't know, seems pretty organized to me?) "Vicious" layoffs... that give people 90 days pay at Silicon Valley rates. (So you get paid more than the median US citizen makes in a year, just to sit on your ass for three months. Oh, the viciousness! writes the NYT unironically.) Twitter was not a money-making venture prior Musk's antics and I doubt that it will be after (for a good long while, at least). If the Establishment wants to move against Elon, the way to do it is not to attack Twitter, but to attack his other ventures. Will this happen? I don't know. Also, I will make one more prediction: Musk will do some crypto shenanigans.[/quote]
