@GaryMarcus @elonmusk I hear people use that "thumb on the scale" expression but believe it isn't warranted here. To me that implies illegal or unethical influence to impact outcomes. Elon is the owner of 饾晱 but he is also another user of 饾晱 and should be free to also express his options here.

@GaryMarcus @elonmusk More and more people are turning to 饾晱 these days to sort out the truth for themselves.

There are certainly extreme takes posted here on all sides of the aisles, but the most extreme are typically rejected or rebutted quickly, and that鈥檚 how freedom of speech should work.

@KettlebellDan @elonmusk EM and this/your site are viewed that way by more and more people every day.

Lot of eyes, seeing the same thing, esp post Kamala鈥檚 entry.

Question: what happens to @elonmusk鈥檚 reputation, then, given dramatic drop in valuation & revenue at Twitter/X, Tesla鈥檚 recent struggles & his recent extremism?
