Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Yeah - he actually shot down something that was not in favor of many many governments. Not Twitter per se, but the people that were in Twitter, using it for the good. Using it to organize and inform. It's almost like he had this mission from the start.

Naw, its really as simple as he got suckered into buying the thing, so now he's gotta try to get money out of it and really has no idea how to do so.

What you really see are the flailings of a desperate manchild who craves attention and really thinks he's smarter than everyone else.

This is what I genuinely hope is happening, it doesn’t make the end result any better but it would be beyond terrifying
