The account was unable to advocate for donations the day after a major event featuring politicians and celebrities brought in around $4 million or Kamala Harris' presidential bid.

      He’s more of an absolute piss baby

        I’ve heard Musk referred to as a piss baby moreso than other dickheads in the public eye.

        Is there some story I’ve missed out on, or is it just a generic insult that’s somehow stuck to Musk more than it has to others?

          It’s essentially saying he’s a whiny little bitch, it isn’t specific to him

          I think it was adapted from the Greg Abbott rebrand: https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/greg-abbott-is-a-little-piss-baby

      Well his own speech is absolutely free. I’m pretty sure that’s what he meant.

        He’ll also trample absolutely any rules necessary to support speech he happens to agree with.

      Yeah how is this feller making sense of this in his own head? I can hardly believe I once thought this guy had love in his heart.

        It’s obvious, he tried making sense for a long time and it just didn’t work out. He then chose and tailored an audience for the cost of Twitter so he could have an audience that logic does not apply to.

      (Note he said that after the “free speech absolutist” claim.)

        Well, then I’m going to start writing to my representatives to start passing laws to hold those who spout transphobia and speciesism accountable to the law.

        Not to mention that one of the first things he did upon taking ownership of Twitter was to game the entire thing so his own tweets get the most attention on the site.

        Honestly, I think that White Dudes for Harris should sue the platform for an illegal contribution to the Trump campaign. It is by definition a media platform and by denying the account they’ve clearly crossed a line.
