ANALYSIS โ As the left implodes over Elon Musk's purchase of Twitter and many triggered liberals threaten to abandon the platform, conservatives are breathing a sigh of relief.
For years now, but increasingly since Donald Trump was elected, Big Tech has been on a rampage against mainstream conservative ideas and opinions.
Often, Big Tech employees and executives have been found overtly colluding with the Democrats in Washington to spread their agenda and talking points while quashing and canceling any opposing (i.e., conservative views).
Their weapons of choice โ โindependent fact checking' (aka โ imposing their leftist views on things by fellow leftists) and of course, the ubiquitous and amorphous company โterms of use,' โcommunity standards' and unknowable internal policies, which seem to always target conservatives while giving leftists and other radicals a pass.
Most conservatives know all this, but many independents and liberals do not.
Then there are those who do and don't care. Or do โ and lie about it.
But how can we show just how bad things were at Twitter and by extension other Big Tech platforms, including Facebook and the often-overlooked LinkedIn, where I was permanently banned?
Well, we can thank Musk for uncovering the depths of leftist wokeness which had spread like an ideological cancer at Twitter.
On Tuesday, as Musk continued hisย overhaul of Twitter, he said he had stumbled upon a closet chock full of โ#StayWokeโ t-shirts at the company's headquarters.ย
Fox Businessย notedย that Twitter co-founder and formerย CEO Jack Dorseyย infamously wore a โ#StayWokeโ t-shirt during an interview with journalist Peter Kafka for ReCode's Code conference over six years ago in 2016.
When asked to explain his shirt, Dorsey said the meaning has evolved over time but โto meโฆ it's really being aware, and staying aware and keep questioning.โย
Unfortunately, that is NOT the meaning of โwoke' most follow today.
Instead, it now means an increasingly intolerant leftist ideology centered on promoting radical agendas such as transgender transitioning of children, bullying friends and allies to accept LGBT views and policies and imposing anti-white racist indoctrination, along with many other extremist and socialist ideas.
And along with this agenda, leftist โwokesters' also believe in crushing any dissent of these radical views, by censoring or canceling anyone who dares disagree.
As Fox Businessย wrote: โWith the rise of cancel culture, many have interpreted โwokeโ to describe people who would rather silence their critics than listen to them.โ
Hopefully, this will now change; at least at Twitter. And Musk believes it will:
As he said this week: โMore and more over time, as we hew closer to the truth, Twitter will earn the trust of the peopleโฆโ
With Musk's takeover of Twitter and the GOP's takeover of the House as well as Florida Governor Ron DeSantis' victories against the left, we may be seeing a turning point in the โwoke wars.'
Now if Musk will only buy LinkedIn too, so I can recover my profile and 20,000 followers.

The democrat party is the party of political cancer.
Big tech and the Democrats are in bed together because of the single thing that unites them both……………….
The love of legalized extortion: Lining their pockets with taxpayer’s money.
I don’t think it’s money as much as it is control. As the old saying goes, power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Big Tech and the Democrat Socialists are all about controlling every aspect of our lives. Getting rich from controlling us is just a bonus.
One thing is for sureโฆ the woke mob is going crazy because they canโt lie anymore, and cancel just because itโs anti-communists
