1/2 I have deactivated my account on Twitter (X), which began in 2007. Under Elon Musk, Twitter has not only decided to stop blocking bigots and liars and pro-insurrectionists, it has actively welcomed them, with apparent support from Mr. Musk.

2/2 I had already cut my participation there by 90%. But Musk’s latest move, to threaten to ban and sue the ADL - to the delight of antisemites and other haters - is the last straw for me.

@waltmossberg 🙇 Twitter was a place of delightful serendipity, to meet new friends and share stuff with old ones.
The barman is a sad piece of shit and extremely unapologetic about it. Time to mourn this extraordinary Third Place and move to new ones.
