How would you describe Twitter’s ideology as compared to Musk’s?

Twitter is a psychological hell-hole that like all social media preys upon the absolute worst of humanity in a perpetual negative feedback loop to generate advertising dollars to sustain itself

Elon is a deluded billionaire who cares only about himself

How do you determine whether someone only cares about themselves? How do you determine whether someone doesn't only care about themselves?

The same way anyone else does. By subjective observation and opinion of the subject

This isn't "The Good Place" where an objective arbiter of the net good or bad we put out into the universe through our entire existence can be measured

Musk is very pro-free-speech-even-speech-that-offends.

Twitter is very ban-anything-that-doesn’t-comport-with-our-woke-worldview-and-call-it-hate-speech-or-disinformation. Also they selectively apply TOS against people they don’t like while regularly ignoring blatant TOS violations from people they like.

Well, except for when their head of moderation offers to personally ban leftists for the people you say aren't allowed on the site.
