I'm not going to support it for the same reason i don't shop at Hobby Lobby or eat at Jimmy Johns.

Twitter is a private company and Musk is free to run it as he sees fit, but I'm not going to help him.

I'd rather see all the decent people leave because then it will go down in flames and Musk will either have to make it a decent place or just let his 44 billion go up in flames. he still has loans to pay back.

Think of it as going on strike.
