Well he admitted to making a mistake with his previous comment. He's also since then been to Israel and supports their righteous cause.
Let's see what happens. I'm not his biggest fan but I respect that at least there is free speech on his platform, unlike Mastodon, Facebook etc
And even if twitter dies, so what? Elon is loaded. To him it's like a toy broke, but he has many more in the cupboard.
Free speech on Twitter you say?

Yes. I've never had a post removed on twitter in all the many years I've used it. I make a few posts on Mastodon and they take them down
Plus on twitter I see all sorts of differing opinions and no one is silencing them. Each one has a voice
Try insulting muskrat on Twitter directly. You'll quickly find out exactly how much "freeze peach" you have on his pro-hate platform.
I'd imagine you're pro right wing fascism which is why you get rightfully stomped on mastodon. Reasonable people there aren't going to tolerate your bullshit.
I didn't stomp on mastodon. I just put up some info about things happening on the ground in Israel, showing Hamas' terrible deeds and lies.
Mastodon seems to be filled with blue haired lefties who can't handle the truth.
As long as you don't insult him or say "cis" or pull advertising
Those allegations are overblown.
Bob Iger still has an account even if he doesn't advertise. He's not being censored. He's just being told "don't think you can bully me". Very reasonable in my opinion
Twitter was useful to a lot of people. More useful than Musk.
To be honest, 99% of the planet still use Twitter. I also use Mastodon but it's a drop in the ocean.
The only people who left twitter are a handful of offended "liberals". Everyone else stayed.
