Elton John Takes Swipe at Twitter in Departure Announcement, Elon Musk Responds
And another one bites the dust.
Sir Elton John has joined the ranks of the thin-skinned celebrities who cannot bear to remain on a social media platform that doesn’t censor users with whose worldviews they disagree.
The Grammy winner made the announcement Friday in the same ironically unaware fashion in which so many of them have: on Twitter.
“All my life I’ve tried to use music to bring people together. Yet it saddens me to see how misinformation is now being used to divide our world,” John wrote on Twitter. Or someone did — John, a publicist, an unpaid intern, whoever.
“I’ve decided to no longer use Twitter, given their recent change in policy which will allow misinformation to flourish unchecked,” he added.
The responses he received were probably about what you’d expect — although perhaps not what John expected.
One of the more tongue-in-check came from the social media giant’s CEO himself, Elon Musk.
Others were more direct.
I’ll toss in two more, one because I simply can’t ignore a “Tombstone” reference when I have the opportunity not to:

Oldsailor, This country's democracy was threatened by Trump and his cronies and supporters. I am definitely not in favor of giving these t*****rs a megaphone to advance their treason, criminality, and lies.
By your OPP name, I assume you are a navy vet. I was a BM3 aboard the USS Warrington DD 843. She was sunk by a friendly mine, and taken out of service in 1972 off beautiful Vietnam. That was years after I was discharged.
You’re such a dumba**. The “Democracy” as you put it is threatened by exactly what happened at Twitter. Banning speech that one side finds offensive is exactly how every authoritarian country in the world came about. You’re such a lying POS you make me sick.

Numerous members of this platform and so many others have attempted to correct what the United States as a country is. We are a Constitutional republic not a democracy. So at least get your facts straight. It really is so damn annoying when the progressive left continues to call our country a democracy!!!!! It never has been!!!!! Period!

Don’t forget he claims he was a teacher. No wonder we have a bunch of young people who know nothing about our founding or Constitution.

It is to your great benefit that you are unable to call me a t*****r, criminal and liar to my face.

It's their love of mob rule...they can't help themselves. And their leaders know that their weak-minded useful i***t faction is swayed by misinformation, (they've been drooling/slobbering/swallowing the most outrageous lies---AND repeating/magnifying these same lies even after they've been proven false)...like referring to this country as a democracy/accusing others of doing exactly what they themselves actually do. It's beyond hypocritical, it's a concerted effort to achieve that 'fundamental t***sformation' into another left-wing/socialist/c*******t/f*****t style society with a corrupt cabal at the top/mob to enforce the unconstitutional edicts. A style of government that has been tried, with disastrous results repeatedly...yet one l*****ts crave.

Just brand the other side as t*****rs and call their words h**e speech and you can shut down the US Constitution.

I have come to the conclusion that almost all these Hollyweird and music stars are not smart at all and lack wisdom.
