Twitter Staff FREAKING | Sabotaging Elon Musk

after Elon Musk sealed the 44 billion

dollar deal to buy Twitter earlier this

week users on the platform have been

seeing swings in their following

accounts so the flood of prominent users

with that little blue check mark have

come forward claiming that they've lost

thousands of followers overnight however

a number of conservative and right-wing

accounts actually gained followers

according to the social media analytics

tracker social blade conservatives like

Ted Cruz and Laura Ingram gained

followers and Marjorie Taylor green the

Georgia congresswoman whose personal

Twitter account was suspended even saw

her official government Twitter account

gained over 41 000 new followers last

night alone so joining me now talk more

about why this is happening is social

media and financial analyst Kevin

paffrath Kevin what's up with the brown

hair buddy I know I gotta bring the

green and pink back what is this yeah

really we're seeing lots of Green from

Eli on must these days so I mean you're

the expert you know better than anybody

I've seen you manage here I follow you

on Instagram but I mean you truly have

your thumb on the pulse of social media

so what do you make of these moves on

Twitter yeah absolutely so there are two

things that could be going on here first

it does seem odd that certain Democrats

like Kamala Harris and AOC who usually

gain followers every day are losing

followers right in super vocal

Republicans are all of a sudden gaining

a lot more followers than usual really

weird so there are two potential

explanations one it could be organic it

could mean that further left Democrats

who are very vocal supportive uh

progressives of people like AOC are

bailing out of the platform deleting

their accounts in other words just

leaving so we see those losses at the

same time Republicans are getting a lot

of attention since Republicans are

cheering the return of free speech and

potentially even Donald Trump to Twitter

so you could see a surge of new

Republicans or even old Republicans

coming back following the new vocal

voices like Ron DeSantis after the Walt

Disney drama that made him trending

almost daily for about a week now the

second is a little bit more Sinister

this is the potential suggested by the

New York Post today and that's that

Twitter just straight up hates

Republicans so much that they have these

long-lasting down voting algorithm

blocks against these Republicans and now

because Elon Musk is coming in they're

quickly removing them to prevent getting

exposed when Elon comes in so maybe it's

one maybe it's two maybe it's a

combination of both

wow that is a pretty interesting uh

insight for you right there what do you

think is going to happen to Twitter

because I know the state government

takes six months but we're already

seeing some waves I even saw that

Twitter they locked down any changes

that they can make to the platform

because they were worried about some

employees maybe doing something or

changing something because they were

upset about the Elon Musk idea oh it's

super possible I mean there are people

in tears the New York Times was doing uh

uh private interviews uh unnamed

interviews with Twitter employees some

of them are asking for alcohol at work

now some of them just want to quit some

of them are just crying over the fact

that elon's coming and some seem to

cheer it uh so you've got this really

weird dichotomy at Twitter and yeah the

last thing they want is one person going

rogue doing something crazy on the

platform reducing the value of the

company because something breaks and

millions of people leave the platform

for example that would be bad for the

deal and shareholders but I do think

what you asked is really wise and that

is what's the future right and the

future is elon's coming we're going to

get transparent algorithms and no matter

whether the New York Post is right or

whether it's organic the future should

be much more transparent for everyone in

a future to look forward to I'm very

excited yeah I was going to say isn't

that a good thing and I mean look at the

guy we're talking about he's got the

Midas touch so if I were an employee

under his I'd at least be pretty

confident those checks were going to

clear absolutely and look there's always

going to be vocal opposition we just had

a non-profit that just hates wealthy a

rich white guys come out and demand that

the FTC and FCC shut down this Twitter

deal to which the Ft uh the FCC Federal

Communications Commission has already

responded and said this is ridiculous

we're not even going to respond to these

absurd arguments or we're not going to

intervene and shut this deal down this

is a good thing yeah what do you think

is going to happen as far as the

shareholders on Twitter and for that

matter Elon musk's company because

there's there's been a little uh shibby

and shaking this week oh yeah no kidding

so uh it's entirely possible that first

of all for uh Twitter there's probably a

30 chance that the deal falls apart and

if the deal falls apart the Stock's

going back to like 35 36 dollars which

is a real downside risk that could

happen a move from the Biden

Administration or uh Department of

Justice anyone Anti-Trust litigation

could freeze the steel would be really

bad in terms of Tesla I think there's a

really good chance that Elon Musk

started dumping shares uh two days ago

on the 26th we should know if that's

true in about the next three hours we

will know if Elon has started selling

shares on the 26th because he's mandated

to disclose that to the SEC within two

days and they usually post that between

5 and 8 PM Pacific time so I got my

email up I'm waiting for those alerts to

see because I think he's dumping shares

to finance his purchase of Twitter all

right I'll be following your Twitter and

your IG and see what happens because

like I said you a lot of the times are

my information Network so Kevin very

good to see you tonight work on the hair

come on this is just way too normal for

you thank you very much all right thank

you

thank you
