CNBC’s David Faber reported Thursday evening that Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal and CFO Ned Segal have "left" Twitter’s headquarters and "will not be returning as the Musk era begins."

They told the outlet that Agrawal and Segal, as well as Vijaya Gadde, head of legal policy, trust, and safety, were shuttled from the building after being fired.

Already canceling people.  What a hypocrite.[/quote]

Employers can't fire employees now? They still have Twitter accounts, they aren't canceled.[/quote]

When Google fired James Damore and Kevin Cernekee, we heard endless complaints from conservatives about being canceled.  Apparently that rule only protects conservatives.  [/quote]

I expect this will piss off about half of the left.  But as a business strategy, being a platform that censors most conservative ideas and a lot of other assorted ideologies is not going to turn a profit. Even among the left, ideological censorship is not completely embraced. Many regular, traditional democrats have no interest in censorship and wont punish twitter for allowing right wing ideas. So overall, Twitter will earn a lot more after this change, and the employees who remain will enjoy the profits. [/quote]
It doesn’t “censor most conservative ideas,” it censors some of the racist and misogynist cesspool. If your ideas are getting censored, perhaps it’s that  conservative thought is a dank hole of stupidity and bad people. [/quote]

umm, in 2022 that means censoring conservative ideas [/quote]

[b]The Federalist writers just advocated for transgender people to be arrested for existing. [/b]

That’s now what constitutes “conservatives ideas.”

Who else do conservatives want to lock up? [/quote]

I doubt this is true. [/quote]

On the transgender question, conservatives will have to repudiate utterly the cowardly position of people like David French, in whose malformed worldview Drag Queen Story Hour at a taxpayer-funded library is a “blessing of liberty.” Conservatives need to get comfortable saying in reply to people like French that Drag Queen Story Hour should be outlawed; that parents who take their kids to drag shows should be arrested and charged with child abuse; that doctors who perform so-called “gender-affirming” interventions should be thrown in prison and have their medical licenses revoked; and that teachers who expose their students to sexually explicit material should not just be fired but be criminally prosecuted.[/i][/quote]

So much for freedom.

Who actually disagrees with that? Especially the dunking on David French part? [/quote]

Making Fascism Great Again. Anyone with the most basic understanding of the First Amendment knows that the government can’t outlaw speech because it happens to make ignorant bigoted trash uncomfortable in terms of their own masculinity. It’s a festival of morons. [/quote]
