Ever watched the richest man on the planet discover, in basically real time, that his actions can have consequences? Well you can and it's free!

So ... Companies freely choosing where to put their ads is destroying free speech.
I love how Musk is a brilliant smart businessman who can run anything, and is also some twitter free-speech warrior locked in constant struggle with "woke" activists and "cancel culture"…His biggest problem is that he’s a megalomaniacal jackwagon who doesn’t have objective critics around him whose job it is to help separate the good ideas from the bong hit-fueled brain farts.
This “cancel culture” meme has gotten so out of hand, Musk and others actually believe it now. That telling companies you won’t due business with them if they support certain voices is somehow an affront on free speech rather than a demonstration of freedom of association (and how your free speech might affect my freedom of association).
“People are saying things I don’t like! That’s not Freedom of Speech! Freedom of Speech is when a rich man can say whatever he wants without any consequences!”
In 3 months Musk will probably declare that he solved "the free speech" and achieved his goal of purging the bots and trolls as well as clearing all the "wokes" lol.. out of the company. Then he’ll sell Twitter to Joe Rogan for “an undisclosed amount”, claiming that this was his plan all along, and that any screwups going forward are the new buyer’s fault.
If I'm understanding correctly, it seems the check mark is no longer for verification. You just have to buy it. This means, verification is no longer verification. lol
