Elon Musk Responds to Verified Liberal Calling for Terrorism Against SCOTUS Justices, ‘Twitter Obv Has a Strong Left Wing Bias’
Twitter’s soon-to-be owner Elon Musk has responded to a tweet from Mike Cernovich highlighting a verified liberal calling for terrorism against conservative Supreme Court justices by saying that the platform obviously “has a strong left wing bias.”
In his tweet, Cernovich included a screenshot from Caroline Reilly, a writer for Rewire News Group, who has contributed to Vulture, Variety, Inside Hook, Teen Vogue, the Washington Post, and more.
Reilly had quote tweeted a story about the Wisconsin nonprofit that was set on fire with Molotov cocktails over the weekend for their anti-abortion position. She wrote, “more of this. may these people never know a moment of peace of safety until they rot in the ground.”
Here you go @elonmusk, when Twitter employees invariably lie to you about enforcement policy, maybe they can explain why a verified account is allowed to incite terrorism without any care in the world about being banned. pic.twitter.com/rCpuf5e1Ry

“Here you go @elonmusk, when Twitter employees invariably lie to you about enforcement policy, maybe they can explain why a verified account is allowed to incite terrorism without any care in the world about being banned,” Cernovich wrote.
In response, Musk wrote that “Twitter obv has a strong left wing bias.” In a follow-up tweet, he added, “like I said, my preference is to hew close to the laws of countries in which Twitter operates. If the citizens want something banned, then pass a law to do so, otherwise it should be allowed.”
