Elon's paid a huge price but the benefit to us is the exposure of how Twitter had become a partisan tool manipulated by the FBI.

Now I am sure anyone who have given it some thought realizes that the social media sites are plagued by foreign government agents who are ALSO seeking to manipulate the collective consciousness.

But when our federal police insinuate themselves into our social media, not simply to refute foreign influence, but to dominate national voices?

Well that is not a good thing, no matter how much one might agree with their actions AT THIS TIME.

Because sooner or later, they will be the tools of some political movement or party you hate and then...

Well what is the point of pretending our elections have any meaning if our government is that bent?

I watched an interview by the Babylon Bee with Elon Musk, quite sometime before he bought Twitter. The Bee had been banned from Twitter at that time. It was an interesting interview.

Sometime later, Musk offered a purchase of a stock share price of 54.20 per share, and I laughed because I saw the "420" in his offer, when the stock was being then trading at 38 something per share at the time.

Seems Musk has lost billions in advertising and endorsements since that purchase, and he is opening up the Twitter files for all to see.

I understand that everything is just a grand circus, nothing is real, and we are all being duped on every single level of cognitive dissonance.

But, I have to hope that some with some wealth and power, considering Musk is certainly not of the trillionnaire class, is joining the fight for personal feedom.

I at least am not making judgement, at least not yet, and remain watching where this goes.

This cuts both ways

Not sure if people agree with me, but I'll say it anyway. We may be learning a lot about LE's involvement inside Twitter and OAs, but Elon Musk stands by it. He's by no means a free speech absolutist. He said before he believes free speech within the constraints of the law. The FBI is law enforcement. If he and Jack had switched places, he would have made the same decisions. The FBI overreached, but that doesn't mean he would not have let them in or stopped them from doing it.
