Musk’s ‘Backbone’ Makes Twitter Takeover a ‘Berlin Wall Moment’

Post by Doka » 04-28-2022 09:09 AM

Jack Dorsey, one of the founders of Twitter, is extremely Happy with Musk!

Dorsey, Musk , Thiel, Sacks and probably many others where helpless to do anything about their companies, until Musk boldly stepped in. You can love them or hate them, one thing for sure they are Capitalists, and that spells FREEDOM,! I hope they all make Zillions.! :D



Former PayPal COO David Sacks: Elon Musk’s ‘Backbone’ Makes Twitter Takeover a ‘Berlin Wall Moment’

Entrepreneur David Sacks has applauded the pending takeover of Twitter by Elon Musk, praising the “backbone” of the Tesla pioneer as being essential to his future success with the social media giant.

Sacks, the founding PayPal COO and product leader, used a podcast with Will Cain of Fox NEWS to canvas what Musk will do next and what it means for free speech and censorship.

Put simply, he aligns Musk’s move as a “Berlin Wall moment” in cultural terms for those who want to challenge existing social orthodoxies about what can and cannot be said in the public square.

The “leadership model he provides of standing up to the mob” should stand the world’s richest man in good stead in the heated world of social media, Sacks observed.

He called it “capitalism’s self-correcting mechanism” where somebody can push back against the “galloping wave of censorship” silencing people by the simple process of “de-platforming” anyone with contrary views.

Watch the interview in full below:

This is not the first time Sacks has challenged accepted wisdom in the business and political world.

Last year he slammed his former company over its announcement it would partner with the far-left Anti Defamation League to monitor payments to alleged right-wing extremists, and that it would share the data with law enforcement.

Sacks, along with Peter Thiel and Elon Musk, is part of a group of Silicon Valley founders known as the “PayPal mafia,” who founded and led the company through the dotcom crash of 2000 through to its successful IPO in 2002, as Breitbart News reported.

Sacks has also previously taken aim at the Biden administration for holding a “sword of Damocles” over the heads of tech companies to make them suppress their political opponents.

We are not out of the "Woods" yet, but after so many years of total humiliation, loss , forced on good people. It taken some guts, money and nukes to even make a dent in the insanity that we have stood up to for so long. By ourselves.
I can't hep but be grateful to the PTB that let this much slip through . It may well be that we be the poorest FREE people in the world, but I will take it.

Elon Musk is a white South African native & that spells RACIST

He wants to usher in a new 21st century cyberspace Apartheid

His acquisition of Twitter amounts to a crime against humanity

It's a moral outrage & all good decent folk need to oppose him

And that's the bottom line 'cuz 'journalists' like Joy Reid say so

Tired of having to collectively stress about what explosion of hate crimes is happening bc some billionaire with an ego problem unilaterally controls a massive communication platform and skews it because Tucker Carlson or Peter Thiel took him to dinner and made him feel special


Elon Musk

Why Does The Left Hate Elon Musk?

Post by Riddick » 05-19-2022 11:02 PM

It’s simple, really: Because he can’t be controlled, and because he doesn’t tolerate BS. As the sometime richest man in the world, he has a lot of power, and it’s not under anyone else’s control. And he’s a nerd, with a nerd’s low tolerance for bull.

Where more socially “polished” people would go out of their way to show fealty to leftist tropes popular among the Gentry Class regardless of their absurdity, Musk is happy to point out that the emperor has no clothes.

Musk is our greatest tycoon, and the thing about tycoons is they’re not timid creatures of committees. They speak and act on their own, and don’t let themselves be constrained by the conventions of less capable people.

His critics, meanwhile, only dominate the field of kvetching. And he’s had it with their BS.

After Twitter censorship reached the point of ridiculousness, he responded by setting out to buy it. Now as a result of that effort, it turns out Twitter is, well, kind of a sham. About half of President Biden’s followers turn out to be fake. (So do nearly a quarter of Musk’s.) Much of America’s journalistic and political agenda appears to be directed by bots.

Worse yet, Musk’s intolerance for BS is starting to spread to his fellow tycoons. Amazon pioneer and fellow space-enthusiast Jeff Bezos recently mocked the Biden administration’s Ministry of Truth by suggesting it fact-check Biden’s nonsensical claim today’s inflation is the result of corporations not paying enough in taxes.

Bezos, who also owns The Washington Post, has been a reliable supporter of the establishment. If he’s straying from the reservation, who knows what’s next?

This is a mortal threat, because the left’s BS can only flourish in an environment where no one challenges it.

The problem for the Biden administration is it’s become weak and contemptible, meaning that fewer people are afraid. (Biden’s Hispanic support has fallen to an incredibly low 26%).

“In the past I voted Democrat, because they were (mostly) the kindness party,” Musk wrote this week. “But they have become the party of division & hate, so I can no longer support them and will vote Republican. Now, watch their dirty tricks campaign against me unfold.”

Expect more lefty defections, as Musk reminds people that there’s no need to kowtow.
