Yeah, the twitter swamp is filling up with scum and Musk isn't cleaning any of it out. Welcome to right wing Twitter swamp.

(38,726 posts)of any reason, then Musk will fail economically. Musk thinks he can say and do anything at all.
But showing himself as "a right-wing clown" is very stupid. People choose to belong to Twitter.
And guess what? They can choose ...NOT to belong to Twitter.

(38,726 posts)Very bad for a business to have the owner sound like Donald Trump.
A lot of people hate Donald Trump, and for very good reasons.
Not good for business at all.

(18,863 posts)West's Twitter account was never de-activated.
According to the Internet Archives Wayback Machine, Wests Twitter account had been publicly visible as of two days ago. Additionally, since West was locked out of his account on Oct. 8, @kanyewest has continually been up on Twitter and does not appear to have been taken down in any way. A Twitter spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
