I think someone realised that he might have made a boo-boo when he started firing people...  Meanwhile, the Musk trolling is continuing.   And now someone is throwing tantrums about it.  |

Ah ah ah ah, what a fucking snowflake, who's been complaining for ages that free speech is paramount, and you can't laugh anymore niah niah niah, but mass suspends all accounts making fun of him.

Yeah, well, I didn't expect that someone who called another man a pedophile for upstaging him in a cave rescue would take criticism of him on his own platform very well.
He really needs to stfu, step back and operate twitter from behind the scenes so that people can separate the brand from the owner, because, well, he's an ass.

^ Exactly.
He needs to step back before he destroys the whole thing. Twitter can be a cesspool but I like it for certain things.

Yeah, I keep Twitter because it has the fastest news about the NFL.

Interesting. I just called Lauren Bobert a lying ass ho. Two weeks ago that would have earned me a suspension, we shall see what happens.

Kathy Griffin has now been banned for "impersonating" Musk. Except apparently it's a permanent suspension because Musky doesn't believe in bans.  A lot of people who HAVE been including the disclaimer that they are a parody account are also saying that they've getting banned permanently suspended, despite following the rules that the Chief Twit has laid out. Of course, the result of this is that more and more people are changing their accounts to troll him... |

Elon Musk has banned a US comedian’s Twitter account after taking on users who impersonate him on the platform.
Twitter’s new owner announced an immediate ban on accounts pretending to be someone else without flagging them as parodies. The move resulted in the removal of an “Elon Musk” account held by the comedian Kathy Griffin, who had changed her account name to match that of the Tesla chief executive.
Musk tweeted: “Going forward, any Twitter handles engaging in impersonation without clearly specifying “parody” will be permanently suspended.” He added that there would be “no warning” before suspensions are imposed and that any name change would result in people losing their blue tick – which verifies who they are.

Griffin had tweeted about the US midterm elections under Musk’s name, with one tweet saying: “After much spirited discussion with the females in my life. I’ve decided that voting blue for their choice is only right (They’re also sexy females, btw.) #VoteBlueToProtectWomen”. Musk tweeted about the account ban, saying Griffin had been removed for “impersonating a comedian” but could have her account back for $8.
Musk said the parody rule would be a condition for signing up to the platform’s revamped subscription service, Blue. Users who pay $7.99 (£6.98) a month for the service will receive a blue tick, as well as the ability to post longer videos and receiving half as many ads. On Sunday evening, several accounts that had changed their name to Elon Musk or approximations of Elon Musk appeared to be suspended or placed behind a warning sign, including those of Griffin and the Australian satirical website the Chaser.
“I guess not ALL the content moderators were let go? Lol,” Griffin joked afterward on Mastodon, an alternative social media platform where she set up an account last week.
Despite Musk promising that users would be able to parody other accounts if they were clearly marked as such – a restatement of Twitter’s existing policy – some received bans despite explicitly labelling their new accounts as mockeries of the company’s owner: one user, who changed his verified account’s name to “Elon Musk (Parody)”, was automatically locked out until he changed it back.

Gross. There's news going round on TikTok that Elon's dad bought a cover up when Elon was in College because he violently raped a cat. The cat had immediate rectal surgery but died a few days later from infection. No idea how accurate the news is, but I would NOT be shocked if it is true.
I can't find the original TikTok or the original article anymore, but not surprised it would get scrubbed this fast either.
