The Spin

Right narrative

The mainstream media has been histrionic since Musk took over Twitter and started implementing changes. They fear increased hate speech and misinformation, but a strong democracy can withstand untrue opinions and outlandish comments without falling apart. Musk's new Twitter marks the end of the Orwellian foundations that the company stood on for years.

The Last Refuge

Left narrative

Musk's brief few weeks as Twitter's CEO have been overwhelmingly marked by chaos, and with the platform set to have no barriers to what can or cannot be said, advertisers have rightly started applying pressure. While the feud with Apple may have simmered down, for now, it's only a matter of time before the erratic billionaire picks another fight.
