I thought about that as well. Lots of followers create influence. But they don't control who is featured to get more followers, as he can with his account. We don't get to set the rules. There are lots of things on Twitter that only Elon can do. That's the difference

Replying to @mcuban and @elonmusk
I have immense respect for Mark Cuban but am baffled by the notion that free speech doesn’t refer to allowing/respecting all viewpoints, but rather “promoting” them.

Elon Musk is once again repeating lies first spread months ago by white supremacists on the internet at face value, then never doing anything about it when he's immediately corrected by people who know actual information.

Elon Musk is frequently wrong, but never in doubt, usually because he relies on info from the bought and paid for or the malevolently ignorant. But how much do I love who has done so much important work to preserve the Internet and actually defend free speech.

Surprised he also didn't use the word "hysterical," among the other available dog whistles. He's even worse at trolling than he is at running Twitter, which is astonishing.

Ms. Swisher is one of the most consistently correct commentators in all of media. I was worried when Elon took over Twitter, but took some comfort from her "wait and see" stance. I am sad this is the single time I was right.

Also: Shrill? If you can’t do better than that with your tired misogynistic metaphors, I am worried for your career as a troll to anyone who even slightly disagrees with you.
