Yeah. I’m wondering how long before Trump turns the DOJ on him.

He owns that trash heap. His rules.

E-loon the man-child likes to restore accounts of people he screws over -- essentially to show them he's the boss.

So glad I deactivated my account there.

u/GwenBD94 1d ago

It's a take on his claims of being a free speech absolutist who would buy the platform to restore free speech to it.

The not stupid ones in the room have known all along that privately owned platform owner can set content rules for their platform however they like. But enough folks believed his claims that any time he pulls his stupid censorship out we like to make free speech jokes

The man-child Musk is the opposite of the Senex (wise old man archetype) -- the so-called "Puer Aeternus":

"The shadow of the puer is the senex (Latin for 'old man'), associated with the god Cronus—disciplined, controlled, responsible, rational, ordered. Conversely, the shadow of the senex is the puer, related to Hermes or Dionysus—unbounded instinct, disorder, intoxication, whimsy." (Source)

I'm calling balderdash on "whimsy", the rest he can have.

7

u/Epinnoia 1d ago

Whimsy is an odd word. But if 'whimsical' fits... It is the 2nd definition...

Whimsical:
"acting or behaving in a capricious manner.

"the whimsical arbitrariness of autocracy""

And for capricious:

"Capricious:

given to sudden and unaccountable changes of mood or behavior.

"it's terrible to feel our livelihood hinges on a capricious boss""

u/gingerfawx 1d ago

"capricious" fits like a glove.

u/No_Panic_4999 5h ago

Except Hermes and Dionysus archetypes are actually creative, sensitive, fun, and relate well to women.

1

u/Epinnoia 2h ago

DIONYSOS (Dionysus) was the Olympian god of wine, vegetation, pleasure, festivity, madness and wild frenzy

Hermes is generally considered 'amoral', a god of thieves, and a trickster.

I just don’t understand why anyone that isn’t an Elon fan keeps using it. Just dump it…stop logging in…stop using Twitter today.

As in, “you’re ABSOLUTELY gonna get censored”.

Somewhat ironically speech made by those with the most money seems to be the most free....

Just like some people are more equal than others. (Apologies to Animal Farm. I have to reread that now. What a fantastic book.)

I'm glad all of these Qanon idiots are being devoured by the monster they've adored for nearly a year. I still remember seeing whatever dumb shit Elon said and bunch of blue mark accounts celebrating it as if it was the greatest thing ever said

Speech is only free for those who pay.

Did you mean freer as in no money?

u/Pure-Introduction493 14h ago

How much was Twitter? Enough to make Musk balk. It is anything but free. “Paid propaganda machine.”

u/redheadedandbold 1d ago

Speech is free. But, the platform owners' freedoms with respect to what they do with their property is what is first applicable here. "Some speech is freer than others" just tells us you didn't read the user agreement.
