Due to an excessive censorship prior to the acquisition, Twitter was a far left cesspool. All these users are still active after the acquisition, however many right-wing accounts were reinstated. Consequently, from the political perspective, Twitter is now more balanced than ever. One can be sure of this by tuning their feed – follow a politically diverse groups of people.

Twitter hasn't really changed much. If you know people who no longer want to use the platform, then their decision is likely driven by the propaganda. In a way, it's not their personal decision, but the result of influence from elsewhere.

This is a lie. Not even manipulation or twisting the truth, but clear unambiguous lie. If anything, after Musk takeover, it became clear how good decisions twitter made before.

In addition, Must is not even trying to stand up to regimes and such. It became completely meek.

Also, twitter is not "balanced". It is right-wing in the sense of "we use right-wing as euphemism for nazi and such".

Federal ruling concluded that there was censorship prior to the Musk take over. This is not a theory, this is a fact.
