No, Musk doesn't value employees as evident. Just who is going to work for him as he has lowered standards of ethical behavior? Who and where does he find 7,500 capable people to replace all the people fired or laid off? He has lost 50% of ad revenue. Twitter is in free fall and I'm surprised not that many people realize it.

Well, 1/2 the team were content moderators to keep Twitter from being a hellscape that would scare away advertisers.

Wait a minute...

return of the bots.

Bingo.

Remember when he was tried to back out of the deal because he said they weren't doing enough to weed out bots?

Somehow, the bots are all gone?

How many bots voted "Yes" in his little poll to reinvite the defeated ex-President?

Bot her emails!

They're verified bots, so it's totally different!

Who would have thought that charging users for a platform they themselves create the value of would be an issue.

Once all the RWNJ's get their accounts, the new subscriber base will dry up. This must be hurting Gab.

Best comment was -

"I hear there’s a problem with the software that makes the car lurch to the far right."

Authoritarian countries around the world want to suppress criticism and public opinion. Can this new Twitter fight back?

It's not free speech! When will you dolts ever understand that private companies can censor whoever the fuck they want?

And can reveal how they censored speech, which they are going to do. Do you have a problem with that?

I have a problem with RWNJ'S like you trying to frame this as a free speech issue. Free speech has nothing to do with private companies censoring content.
