ELON MUSK
BRILLIANT ENGINEER ... BUT SOCIALLY DANGEROUS
I have been a fan of Musk because of his engineering innovation and competence ... but in my view he is a dangerously flawed human being

Stop Musk’s Disinfo Mother Jones December 10th 2022 9:00 AM The following advertisement from Free Press has been sent to you via Mother Jones' email list. Mother Jones is a nonprofit, and most of our budget comes from readers like you, but revenue from advertisers helps us produce more of the hard-hitting journalism you expect. We never disclose your information to an advertiser. Mother Jones does not endorse any candidate, political organization, commercial product, or service, and the views expressed in this email do not constitute any endorsement or recommendation by Mother Jones. Donate: Help us fight Musk and Trump Friend – Elon Musk has owned Twitter for a little more than a month – and here’s what his leadership has led to so far: Mass firings, including a gutting of the content moderation team tasked with keeping Twitter free of hate, disinformation, and violence. A huge surge of hate speech, slurs, and disinformation An open invitation back to the platform for people who have been banned for violating Twitter’s terms of service – including inviting back Donald Trump, who used the platform to plan and organize the insurrection of January 6th. We have to fight back. Platforms like Twitter are already failing to protect users from hate and disinformation. Under Musk – and with Trump already invited back – things would only get worse. Make an emergency donation to help Free Press fight disinformation and hate. Free Press DONATE: Help us fight Musk and Trump Free Press has been fighting back against Big Tech abuses for years. Earlier this fall, we released a report detailing how social media companies have failed to stop the spread of election disinformation and extremism – and even before Musk, Twitter ranked in the bottom of the pack. Musk may regard Twitter as just another expensive play toy, but it’s a global online community that includes hundreds of millions of regular users. With control of such a massive platform comes great responsibility — and Musk’s track record makes it clear he lacks the capacity to be accountable to anyone. But Free Press Action will be there to advocate for the moderation and protections users need to stay safe. Please, make a donation today to help support our vital work and fight back against Musk and Trump. In solidarity, The Free Press Action team
