I criticized elon on twitter and am now suspended. No explanation... It's a pretty vanilla acct apart from calling Elon a bad father and an authoritarian anti-free speech grifter. You know, truth things.

I think this is probably pretty common for smaller accts to get suspended/banned because they won't be noticed when gone.

Meanwhile his active user stats

I said a special hidden feature on Tesla cars is they randomly lock their doors and incinerate their drivers.

I got permanently banned for that one.

I mean, that's clearly wrong.

It's an electric car. There is no internal combustion, not even of people.

It simply electrocutes the passengers. Much more efficient, environmentally friendly and, you can't spell electrocute without cute.

I named my profile to “Elon’s Musk” and replied to a few of his tweets and my account was banned within 24hr of the change.

Same. Got a 30 day ban so I deleted my profile and uninstalled the app. Fuck him. Fuck that company. And fuck everyone on there. It's all bots, incels, racists, and like .01% normal people with a functioning brain. Not worth the hatred it brings out in me.

Now you know how it feels to be on reddit if you go against the hive mind. I hope Elon buys this hell hole too

If you don't block him, Twitter is now just All Elon, All the time. Like before I blocked him my first 5 post would be whatever he shits out.

A while ago I got a content warning because I talked about the History of the middle east and mentioned Cis Jordan (you know, the other part to Trans Jordan). Same thing happened to a guy I know recently who talked about cancer therapy and the usage of Cisplatin to stop tumor growth. Free speech all the way.
