How many of these posts are in fact from lefties? I would guess most of them.
+++++
You are probably right about that.
I don’t see this as an insurmountable issue. The free expression of opinion seems to me to be separable from the language we use to express that opinion. I think black people have a legitimate reason for objecting to the use of the N-word and as a polite society I think we acknowledged that. It’s just an agreed to rule of conversation that most of us, left and right, agree to.
I think Elon Musk should apply a few such rules. Let us keep the language polite and civil and let the ideas be super wide ranging.
That was gonna be my next guess!
How about noodnicks?
“...including the use of the N-word.”
To quote Andrew Breitbart, “So...?” There’s free speech, or there isn’t free speech. Which do we prefer?
I have no problem with any words as long as the Lord’s name isn’t taken in vain. Some are ugly. Some are offensive. But ... free speech.
Never, never never never never?
Wait I just caught on fire because someone used a word!
Rappers must be starting to use the platform.
Why? Blacks are posting there now?
I don’t get around like I used to, but I haven’t seen Whites
use the N word more than ten times in my life, and truth be
told, it may be less than five.
I have never hung out with anyone who would use that word.
I don’t do Twit, but I have lived in “Colorful” communities and know for a fact that “Blacks” use that word among themselves more than ANYONE else.
An no, not always in fun.
Should they be censored for using the word too?
OH NOES. Because no black person or “aspiring rapper “ ever utters that word...

Great show.
All those people who annoy me.
A bunch of naggers.
Whyte conservatives don’t say the N word. So that leaves a few other suspecks
Yeah. “Nazis”. The new racial epithet.
300 tweeters busy sending racist tweets. Didn’t read article, so don’t know if they identified tweeters or how long they’ve been registered.
I would guess 99.9%.
It’s their way to force Musk to abandon free speech.
Yes the way to handle this is to expose who they are.
So rather than ban speech remove the anonymity of those who abuse it.
Let them face the consequences of their actions.
I am sure they ALL are from lefties. Can’t people block others from posting on their account (or whatever it is called)?
That would take care of the troll problem...
(I wish we could do something similar here :P )
There has long been a “black twitter”. Blacks would say, “black twitter” do your thing. Meaning do your swarm mobbing thing against ....you can guess who
So lets see how the new Musk twitter deals with these problems
LeBron James: “So many damn unfit people saying hate speech is free speech.”
It IS free speech. It is also ugly and unhelpful and often mean-spirited, but it is free speech.
