“The View” co-host Sunny Hostin said she dreads Elon Musk taking over Twitter, claiming it would benefit “predominantly straight white men” who are on the social-media platform.
“When Elon Musk says, ‘Wow, this is about free speech,’ it seems to me that this is about free speech of straight white men, so let them have it,” Hostin told her “View” co-hosts on Tuesday.
“Let them just go at it.”
Hostin added: “I think Twitter can be a really horrible place, and I think people are excited because he is sort of going to unleash the trolls, right?”
“I think he is saying, ‘You get to say whatever you want. I’m going to take away the guardrails.’ And for me, that is something that is a bit scary.”
Hostin cited a statistic according to which 38% of women on Twitter have been “on the receiving end of abuse.”
Hostin added that her favorite feature on Twitter is the “block button.” She bemoaned the fact that Twitter “has an outsize influence in our world because politicians and celebrities are on it.”
Just let it out, ladies. Let it out, liberals. When you’re done, Elon Musk will still own Twitter. It’s done. And no, Joy Behar, liberals don’t like free speech. You cancel people over the most idiotic reasons. You think words are violence. You’re more concerned about feelings over facts and support illiberal means to keep those feelings from getting hurt. Your side has lost its marbles on free speech.
