Is one the financiers of his Twitter buy-out from a journo murdering state?

Such a strange statement for him to make 'be glad I'm just removing your Twitter access and not sending a hit squad to murder you'

This billionaire is definitely not lekker in the head.

The Conservatives freaked out when a private company banned Trump and the other neo nazis.

Now they use the fact that it's a private company to defend banning journalists for bad mouthing the owner.

Just shows how weak their resolve is, they're willing to swallow anything Elon shits out
So much for principled stances

They didn't even bad mouth him. They just reported on him which is literally their job.

Maybe Musk will honour 'The Voice of the People' when his poll ends and reinstate her?

I'm betting it won't happen... That tweet had a screenshot of a mail from QElon discussing how they were able to find a guy's physical address from metadata in a pic he'd posted and how they could use the information to get him to put pressure on another guy he worked for who QElon felt was harassing him.

Looks like mostly factual Tesla and Musk reporting (albeit generally negative), but not much in way of opinion or slurs? I'm thinking he will reinstate, but with him in his current state anything is possible. He'll take some serious slack (and possible EU sanctions) if he doesn't.

I see UN are jumping on now too:

Twitter condemned by UN and EU over reporters’ ban

The United Nations joins the EU in warning Elon Musk over a "disturbing" move to suspend journalists.

Yup, aside from advertisers, the EU is where his real trouble starts.

“How do I know so much about how @elonmusk does things? I spent 3 years investigating Tesla at @BusinessInsider from 2018-2021. Here are some of sloppy, dangerous, callous, things I learned:”

You can only use the words 'journalist' and 'Andy Ngo' in the same sentence if you're describing Andy discussing actual journalists. He's a provocateur and troll, that's it.

Judicial Watch is garbage too.

That said, the complete list of folks I follow on that Space looks like this:

1. Ben Collins
2.
3.

Ben's coverage of conspiracy is second to none, and I post him here a lot.
