Elon Musk buying Twitter exposes the great divide

I read Elon's Twitter last night. He's putting together a council to moderate. Changes won't be made until then. Here's one of this tweets to a reader:

"i don’t know who needs to hear this but, death threats aren’t part of protected free speech, it’s in a different category called “a crime.” so y’know. you still don’t get to do that."
 
As far as I am concerned, Elon Musk is an accident ready to happen. He is just another CEO in the line of businessman pretending to know the technology he pays other people to make work, but he really has no clue how anything works except to hire offshore contractors who have fooled him into thinking they know how technology works. He is in good company with Andrew Yang, and even the CEO/CTO of boeing (Did you really think low-cost foreign contractors knew what they were doing when they 'patched' the software on the 737-300Max Airplanes?).

I'm just waiting for an Musk product to fail due to ignorance as to how the product should work. God help the affected people when that happens.

Just my one-time posted opinion (along with my 40 year experience as an Electronics Engineer).......Bye.
 
I don't think there's anything Elon Musk could do to make me want to use Twitter. As far as allowing racist comments and allowing people to make threats, that's not good for business, so I don't see Musk allowing that kind of thing. People who want to do that should go to Parler where they can be around other miscreants and incels.

The MCAS was on the 737-8. The only change made was that the AOA was changed to use both sensors (left and right) instead of just one as originally was used. Why Boeing only decided to use one sensor to begin with is a mystery to me. Even if Boeing hadn't changed or added a software patch, the plane could have flown safely as it was originally, if all of the pilots had received proper training.

When someone disagrees with another's view and defends their position, doesn't mean they are afraid of understanding the opposite viewpoint. Most people are educated enough to make reasonable decisions. BUT, there are those who are still asleep at the wheel, and whatever "side" they are on, they defend even until.....whatever. The thought of them being afraid is sort of childish don't you think?

Well, I think Elon Musk is doing wonderful things to help humanity.
He produces good influences in many diverse actions.
I think the scope of his visions is far beyond what any of us can imagine.
I wonder why you all judge him and see the worst in him.

Some people can see past a smokescreen and deceit, and there are those who are blinded by media propaganda.

Musk used his vast resources to seize control of Twitter because he didn’t like its editorial stance. That’s not an example of free speech. It’s an example of how the very wealthy can silence criticism.

...and allow the return of hate speech. Musk has already said he would restore #45's Twitter account. Then Musk denied that he said that.
As Musk becomes more of a focus in public, his true colors will become more evident, and as the lies pile up high enough it will be hard for even the naive to ignore.

I don't think he has true colors. I think he's an effed up twit that got incredibly lucky. If he has any color, he's first getting it now. Twit owns Twitter.

Read Elon already screwed up by tweeting Paul Polosi hammered by his gay lover. He removed the tweet, but too late, it's out.

Don't care how rich he is, he's a schmuck and a potentially treasonous one.

He is just another nutter, who happens to be rich enough to buy a social media platform and who will continue the practice of posting conspiracies, lies, disinformation and hate speech such as inciting violence against minorities including LGBTQ, people of color, Jewish people, etc. Didn't take the bastard long to post that disgusting lie about Mr. Pelosi, and of course he had to disrepect gay people also.....more to come with scum like him.

He has accomplished some good and profitable things in his career, but his personality and character are still in the sewer.
