I know I once followed her, but I'm pretty sure I stopped. Musk recently followed her and now... I do too? https://t.co/VXgO0XUXob — PolitiTweet.org

Hey @sundarpichai, can you fire up the Google+ servers again? Asking for a few million friends. — PolitiTweet.org

@leslielew Obviously not all at once! Also, you're overthinking the ripening if you're perfecting per day. — PolitiTweet.org

@boztank The ice and desert shots are beautiful. Have you tried doing less polished stuff? Character comes from imperfection. — PolitiTweet.org

@BridgetCarey I see NO children's pain. Shouldn't we be celebrating this? 🥳 — PolitiTweet.org

We won't shadowban you, but we will let the paying Musk fan club members decide if you're worthy — PolitiTweet.org

The US is never short of people who admire the rich for being rich and disdain immigrants for being immigrants. But billionaires are an effect of prosperity, immigrants are a cause. — PolitiTweet.org

@techf1rst I've some lovely Tokyo pics I'm itching to share but won't be doing so here. Am professionally bound to stay here and see where this goes, but my personal stuff can find another outlet. — PolitiTweet.org

Musk when dozens of people posted videos of Ye praising Nazis and Hitler on the Alex Jones show: shrug. Same guy when some reporters posted a screenshot of a Mastodon tweet: red alert! — PolitiTweet.org

Silicon Valley types when discussing YOUR location privacy: what do you plebs have to hide? Same crew when it's THEIR location: literally assassination coordinates. — PolitiTweet.org

Twitter's functioning so wonderfully that this thread breaks halfway through if you start from the top, so pick it up from the bottom instead. 🙃 — PolitiTweet.org

To quote a friend who need not be named: if I was a Tesla shareholder, I'd be really pissed right now. — PolitiTweet.org

Musk then spends the rest of his night tweeting agreement with people who agree with him, his last tweet coming at 3:24am East Coast time. — PolitiTweet.org

Vlad Savov @vladsavov

Musk calls it a legacy bug fix. Doesn't acknowledge the coincidence of that fix being rolled out at the same time as 40,000 people were tuned in to a Spaces that was critical of his bans. https://t.co/YevXvvMMd8 — PolitiTweet.org

Vlad Savov @vladsavov

But it doesn't end there. Katie's Spaces is later interrupted, disconnecting everyone, as all of Twitter Spaces goes down. — PolitiTweet.org

Vlad Savov @vladsavov

Enough people drop that Spaces into Musk's mentions for him to join as well. He's there less than 3 minutes. Says doxxing gets you suspended, end of story, doesn't stick around to hear any counterpoint. — PolitiTweet.org

Vlad Savov @vladsavov

A Twitter Spaces hosted by @katienotopoulos gains popularity and - surprise! - some of the banned reporters can participate. Drew Harwell and Matt Binder join in the fun to talk about being banned from Twitter... on Twitter. — PolitiTweet.org

Vlad Savov @vladsavov

(Musk has not lifted the suspensions) — PolitiTweet.org

Vlad Savov @vladsavov

The poll, lasting only 30 minutes, brings in a half million votes and the people decide he should lift the bans. Musk does another poll. That's an even clearer majority. https://t.co/IGThtmx8gD — PolitiTweet.org

Vlad Savov @vladsavov

So far, Musk has gone back on his word to keep his critics on the platform no matter and he's made a bit of a business misstep picking a fight with Twitter's most engaged users. But he has more, in comes a poll. https://t.co/0eMZRC9D1k — PolitiTweet.org

Vlad Savov @vladsavov

Also swept up in the banhammer tide is Keith Olbermann, which gives Musk the chance to say everyone's getting a 7-day ban for supposedly doxxing him. — PolitiTweet.org

Vlad Savov @vladsavov

Musk accuses them of posting "assassination coordinates" (do I need to point out they didn't?) https://t.co/UlN1cDuBvT — PolitiTweet.org

(Donie, btw, is one of the most likable humans on US TV, not exactly a troublemaker) — PolitiTweet.org

Vlad Savov @vladsavov

Journalists like CNN's Donie O'Sullivan and WashPo's Drew Harwell tweet about the Mastodon removal, some post screen grabs of the offending tweet, they get banned. No warning, no caution, just banned. — PolitiTweet.org

Vlad Savov @vladsavov

Mastodon handle tweets to let people know ElonJet can be followed on Mastodon, gets banned. — PolitiTweet.org

@GenePark What do you mean "back" to it? Just play through the Spaces like a pro. — PolitiTweet.org
