Hmmm who got to him?
@brendan2508
Probably whoever came up with the plan for muskox to buy it in the first place. He’s just providing the means to flush out more curmudgeonly folks that dont like the changing world around them…they can be stubborn, especially when they’re right and can prove it. Actually, flushing out the folks with a level head on their shoulders, can happen on any website where people express their opinion. Even this one. I’d not be one bit surprised to find out there are people here who make regular reports to their ‘superiors’. Removing censorship, including ‘self censorship’ is like reopening a gold mine for the ‘control file’ agencies because new technologies have been put into use allowing for the ‘mining’ to continue.
I listened to some podcast (memory is shocking these days can’t remember which - I listen to so many) recently who suggested Musk is being ‘groomed’ to develop technology most probably relating to space (military or civilian?). I am guessing most likely military.
Sounds like it was the government.
@bluenose Probably so. I think the way things are playing out was the intention from the beginning. Of course, I’m wary of any mega-billionaire who gets tons of mostly positive press, especially if he manages to develop a cult following and convince a lot of the public that he’s hip, cool, and on their side.
This, unfortunately, has aged well faster than I expected
Beware of any billionaire media darling who’s portrayed as a savior . . .

Sadly, many pro’s and con’s on this forum about Elon. Honey trap in action and seems to work well.
He’s controlled opposition. His purcahse of Twitter has long term goals . Wouldn’t be surprised if he will be the inventor of the digital dollar. He’s a member of the club
Is he wrong though?
What would happen to twitter if he refuses to comply?
Law suits or will the government go at him even harder?
Lets see how this unfolds before we get to emotional 
Everything happening now is planned for a reason, this is supposed to trigger some kind of response.
Maybe it will lead to something we didnt expect, i doubt Elon would benefit from bending the knee at this point.
His whole persona st this point is about being that billionare that does what he wants and questions authority etc. (its an image but still)
If he gives in he will just be another tech billionare puppet in the eyes of his fans.
So i suspect he has something up his sleeve to get out of this with a win.
