    won't happen. it's too big of a propaganda news outlet so the democrats will give the top guys/investors kickbacks to keep this from going down. Twitter and Facebook swing elections

    It's not just an arm of the white liberal elites to censor Americans who don't agree with their unbending views and ideals. Twitter also has agreements in place with oppressive governments like China, Russia and Venezuela to censor the populace. None of these parties are going to be happy seeing Musk shake things up at Twitter

    I think his offer is all a ploy to jack the stock price of his current shares. He can bid $43B but he doesn't actually have that liquid. I can file a $43B bid too lol.

    It's also low enough to where he knows Twitter will reject. Their share price was at $70 just within the last year.

    Low enough? Twitter's total worth is like a third of that amount. He made the shareholders a deal they cannot refuse.

    His offer is actually $54.20 because he wanted to put in a "420" for the pot smokers. That's not a joke either

    Yeah that doesn't mean they are ready to jump ship at $54. Most of them are in it for the long haul. The other issue as I mentioned earlier is that Musk actually has to cough up $43B in cash.

    I mean maybe you're right, maybe they will sell I don't know. I'm just predicting a rejection but I could be wrong.

    Twitter was temporarily banned in Russia just a little over a month ago. Do you deny Twitter censors all but the most harmless speech at the behest of oppressive governments? Do you honestly think once Russia and China allows Twitter back again they are going to stop censoring the common people all of a sudden?

    I think the entire reason that Twitter is banned in Russia and China is because users can and will speak freely. The idea that Twitter censors out all conservative voices is complete bs. Marjorie Taylor Greene and Trump Jr are on there right now spewing anti-Dem shit and bad talking Biden.

    The only notable change I can even see Musk making is unbanning Trump himself. And I think if the take over does happen the entire "free speech" illusion will hinge on Trump's account. If he unbans Trump it will be seen as "free speech restored!" by conservatives. If he doesn't unban that account it will be seen as "nothing has changed".

    Twitter can not monitor everyone's political opinions, they have algorithms in place to ban trolls and porn just like any other place. If you get on there and tweet "DIE LIBS DIE!!!" you'll probably get flagged and banned but it won't be because of your politics.

    My thoughts exactly. Twitter is far too important of a social engineering tool for the deep state to allow it to go to someone of questionable loyalties.

    The woke libtard agenda cannot stand up to scrutiny. Free speech must be suppressed and dissenters silenced.
