You're wrong.

Yes it was a dialogue worth having.

“It is worthy of a careful, rigorous, unbiased, objective examination, based on relevant, verifiable data. There are a number of plausible scenarios embedded in this label, ‘lab leak,’ and importantly, they include an unrecognized infection of a well-intentioned lab worker attempting to recover or study new coronaviruses from bats. It does not imply malice or even necessarily awareness (of the accident). Lab accidents are much more common than any of us know, or would like to admit, and they occur worldwide and even in the most safe and secure labs. U.S. biosafety labs are by no means strangers to accidents; leaks of some of the most dangerous infectious agents have occurred at CDC and other U.S. government labs.” — David A. Relman, microbiologist at Stanford University

You seem really upset that someone has a different viewpoint than you.
you sound like a butthurt snowflake that believed in all the bullshit and got in trouble on twitter... butthurt snowflakes are the best kind of snowflakes to point and laugh at.

Repeal Section 230.

Put in place guidelines that Twitter in order to remain a Platform would need to be neutral in moderation and let them know if they follow the guidelines they will not be held liable for content.
You have any evidence that they haven't been neutral in their moderation?

FB actively pushes the crazy onto people, not sure if Twitter does, but probably.

Twitter has agreed to the Takeover bid. Time to break out the pop-corn.

I am not worried. Are you?

Twitter was banning the discussion of the COVID Origin Lab Leak Theory in early 2020. What vaccinations were available then?
It was being used by the far right as proof that somehow it was caused by China and therefore the US shouldn't have to take mitigation seriously. Makes no sense, but that is trump logic for you.

Yes, that is the totally the kind discussion that should play out in 160 character increments from lay people. FFS

You're still wrong.

You are wrong and it is still a discussion worth having.

It's in the name of the lab.

Don't really use twitter, it's just there for the odd thing that pops up (competitions etc) so it will be no real loss to delete my account there.

I think Elon is growing progressively more unhinged at the idea that he will never step foot on Mars, and that tons of his assertions and predictions will be proven woefully inaccurate.

Pardon my ignorance, but by "cash in" do you mean putting more money into Twitter shares or pulling your money out? If the latter, then why? If you have so much confidence (the impression I get from your previous posts) in Elon Musk, wouldn't you want to let it ride?

It's a honest question, btw. Not trying to snide your obsession with Musk, at least not in this particular instance.

Have you ever gone on and watched a SpaceX Falcon-9 launch and landing? I did and it was incredible to watch the engineering prowess on display.

Well, Elon Musk is paying $44 billion for Twitter. And the board has approved the takeover.
