This absolutely was not casually sharing a link that happened to be on another platform. It was an announcement about quitting twitter and an advertisement on where he could be found on a competing platform.

It is straight up the EXACT scenario that the policy was put in place for.

Do you know what the word relentless means? A single mention cannot be relentless.
Mr Dumpty had something of Mr Musk's way with words in "Through the Looking Glass":

    `And only ONE for birthday presents, you know. There's glory for you!'

    `I don't know what you mean by "glory,"' Alice said.

    Humpty Dumpty smiled contemptuously. `Of course you don't-- till I tell you. I meant "there's a nice knock-down argument for you!"'

    `But "glory" doesn't mean "a nice knock-down argument,"' Alice objected.

    `When I use a word,' Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, `it means just what I choose it to mean--neither more nor less.'
There are no rewards to be reaped here by defending him. There is nothing beneficial being achieved by Musks actions on Twitter as of late who is banning whoever is clearly against him personally. Not you, not me or anyone else is gaining anything. Love Tesla, love SpaceX but understand when something else is clearly wrong.
What really puzzles me is why after all this there are still people carrying water for this prick.
It’s funny how in one month I went from considering a Tesla for my next car to never wanting another cent going into anything with Musk at its helm.
I made that decision around the Thai rescue.
>I made that decision around the Thai rescue.

To anyone who missed it, this is in reference to Elon Musk slandering a rescue diver, who called BS on Musk's grand idea du jour, by saying the diver is a "pedo guy".

PSA: By the precedent set in the argument of his defense in the defamation case[1], a "pedo guy" just means a "creepy old man" to Elon Musk and the court — especially so if such a man is into younger women[2].

Therefore, by his own admission,...

> Elon Musk is a pedo guy. <

Feel free to copypaste/cite/link this comment, or simply refer to the Twitter CEO as "The famous pedo guy Elon Musk" from now on.

Thanks in advance for respecting me for stating the facts.

Elon Musk went on to elaborate that the rescue worker specifically has sex with underaged Thai boys. Elon wanted to completely destroy the rescue worker.

Imagine if somebody said this about a high school teacher.

I made that decision when I first time sat in one.
The view from a higher, more abstract perspective is excellent, highly recommended.

I would be very surprised if Elon doesn't realize how infuriated this will make everyone.

Many get paid to.
The sad thing is that many more do it for free.
It's a ridiculous policy.
Of course it is, because these types of policies don't really work. It doesn't change the fact that this policy was created for this exact scenario.
