Twitter Headquarters Suffers Severe Water Damage From Liberal Employees' Tearsno link.
SAN FRANCISCO, CA—Twitter headquarters has sustained extensive water damage following Elon Musk's $43 billion bid to buy out the company. Early reports indicate that the source of the water is the tears of the company's liberal employees who are devastated at the news.
"NOOOOOOO!!!!!! I refuse to work for Elon Musk!" screamed Evie Mandrake (they/them) falling to her knees, tearing at her clothes, and sobbing uncontrollably. "He can't keep getting away with this! We can't let him allow free speech!"
Witnesses claim that tears are currently pouring out all the exits and windows of Twitter's HQ. Structural engineers at the scene are not sure if the building can be salvaged. "In this case, the high salt content of the tears already threatens to corrode the steel structure of the building. I guess we'll have to gut the place and turn it into a homeless shelter after all." said Mark Powell, senior engineer.
Of the few Twitter employees that were still able to still speak coherently, they explained that they fear what may happen to this platform now that people they don't like can't be silenced on a whim. "Now anyone could be subject to being banned. Even the accounts we have been protecting by turning a blind eye to are at risk now!"
At publishing time, the local news channel was forced to put out a flood warning for the Twitter headquarters surrounding area for the foreseeable future as the weeping and gnashing of teeth continues. Originally Posted by berryberry

MSNBC host trashed for warning Elon Musk could use Twitter to ban political candidates: ‘You absolute clown’
MSNBC host Ari Melber was roasted on Twitter for worrying Monday that Elon Musk could use Twitter to "secretly ban" or "turn down the reach" of a major party’s candidate ahead of an election...
"As we discussed… if you own all of Twitter or Facebook or what have you, you don’t have to explain yourself. You don’t even have to be transparent. You could secretly ban one party’s candidate or all of its candidates, all of its nominees. Or you could just secretly turn down the reach of their stuff and turn up the reach of something else, and the rest of us might not even find out until after the election.”
“Elon Musk says this is all to help people because he is just a free speech, philosophically clear, open-minded helper, a world helper, if you will. Is that true?” “Should you take him at his word? Should you care about this whether you have a Twitter account or not? This is important stuff.”
Sunny Hostin also weighed in expressing outrage, shock and sheer panic that the new Twitter could also allow straight white men to have a voice on the platform.
https://www.cnn.com/2022/04/14/tech/...fer/index.htmlYeah, I hear Liberals are all pissed off about it too. They are afraid Trump will start tweeting again and Freedom of Speech will come back in style on Social Media. Fuck'em, lol.
I honestly can’t say what this means. Musk kinda lives in his own universe.
He says he wants to privatize the Company and make it a true free speech platform.
I would not assume anything concerning what he will do. Originally Posted by Jackie S

In his conversations about free speech he also said 'verified' speech - meaning no anonymous speech on the platform. <-- Let that bake in your noodle a bit.
