On Monday, Twitter announced it had reached a deal with Elon Musk to purchase the social media platform and take the company private.

"However, since making my investment I now realize the company will neither thrive nor serve this societal imperative in its current form," he continued. "I also want to make Twitter better than ever by enhancing the product with new features, making the algorithms open source to increase trust, defeating the spam bots, and authenticating all humans," he continued. Twitter "has entered into a definitive agreement to be acquired by an entity wholly owned by Elon Musk, for $54.20 per share in cash in a transaction valued at approximately $44 billion. "I fear this free speech bid is going to help this hell platform reach its final form of totally lawless hate, bigotry, and misogyny," she added. I would like this to be my what lies here as my last tweet," she shared alongside a series of sweet snaps of her dog. "I invested in Twitter as I believe in its potential to be the platform for free speech around the globe, and I believe free speech is a societal imperative for a functioning democracy," the entrepreneur explained.

She then linked to an Insider article from March 27, which detailed the stories of several critics and an employee who were retaliated against for criticizing Musk and his companies. Should this place become more toxic, I pledge to strive even harder to lift up reason, science, compassion and the rule of law. Every post you make here is free content to enrich one man, Elon Musk. He is completely in control and answers to no one. It's about how the richest man in the world, a son of Apartheid, raised by a white nationalist, wants to be sure his speech, and that of other white men, isn't censored.' 'The Freedom to lie with impunity is one of the biggest dangers to American democracy.' He's also likely to fire many of the firm's woke staff. Bezos dismisses Musk's plan to colonize Mars using his SpaceX rockets as unrealistic, while Musk has been scathing about the orbiting space station Blue Origin founder Bezos proposes. The struggle against fascism, misinformation, and hate requires tough fighters. We need a wealth tax and strong rules to hold Big Tech accountable.' Model, presenter and The Good Life actress Jameela Jamil, 37, said Musk's free speech promise will lead to 'lawless hate, bigotry and misogyny'. Pledging never to tweet again she said: 'Ah he got twitter. Best of luck.' Jamil has since been widely-mocked by people in her replies who believe she will not be able to resist staying off Twitter. A group named Libs of TikTok have also put together a montage of people who are quitting Twitter over Musk - but many are keeping their accounts open so they can get more followers on

Elon Musk has reached an agreement to buy Twitter, and of course Hollywood stars from Jameela Jamil to Questlove have some thoughts.

"Now that Elon Musk is buying Twitter, the question for all of us is: Will he allow a Criminal who used this platform to lie and spread disinformation to try to overthrow the US Government to return and continue his Criminal activity? "Welp. What now," Questlove posted Monday afternoon, envisioning a potential post-internet lifestyle. Lol." "I also want to make Twitter better than ever by enhancing the product with new features, making the algorithms open source to increase trust, defeating the spam bots, and authenticating all humans." Trump said Monday he would not return to Twitter, even under a new leader. Once the deal is complete, which is expected by this year, Twitter will become a privately held company.

Jameela Jamil announced she will no longer be using Twitter since it was purchased by Tesla founder Elon Musk. Read why here.

There is a lot of general distaste about this Twitter news because of Elon's plans for the site, including taking it private and reinstituting the site's original vision of being a space for free speech, which we know has a cost since the principle can be weaponized to incite hate in various forms. Just a few hours before that tweet, Jameela gave her followers a lil heads up on Monday that she would leave if Elon did indeed make the purchase. "I would like this to be my what lies here as my last tweet.

Musk, not in a direct response to Jamil, tweeted, "The extreme antibody reaction from those who fear free speech says it all." Jamil also created the I Weigh Community and podcast, which, according to its website, was created to be a safe space for people to share ideas and "mobilize activism." The "The Good Place" actor has previously been vocal about the damage that social media can do, particularly for women.
