   My mastadon link at my pinned tweet on Twitter is now warning anyone who clicks on it that the sight may be “unsafe.”
   You know what actually feels unsafe right now? Musk on Twitter.

     It’s clear Elon has a ton of regressed anger from years of bullying. He now has a place to exact his ‘revenge’.
     I am literally stunned by his lack of ability to discern fact from fiction and his lust for the latter.

     Musk is going to have a rude awakening, when the majority of democrats and legitimate news organizations leave Twitter, because our right to free speech is being cancelled.

     When all Musk is left with is a bunch of lying, Nazi, conspiracy theorists, who openly plot against the government; Twitter will become nothing more than a chain of evidence for the FBI to track, monitor, and hunt down domestic terrorists.
