When people have an opinion about a movie or show, they are referring to the works of the cast and select crew who created and presented the content: writers, directors and actors. 

When people have an opinion about Twitter, they are referring to the works of the moderators and directors who control the content. Whether any of the backstage employees are conservative, who have no control over how Twitter projects its bias, is completely meaningless. They are, in no way, subjects of Twitter criticism.

I'm not saying they are subjects of criticism.
I'm saying perhaps they tried to make Twitter a less biased place, and even if they failed, perhaps they left behind some records that would be interesting for us to look at.

I have no idea if it occurs or at what frequency.  You are the one who stated that it happens "often".  I'm asking you to define "often" and cite the data supporting your claim.  

i don't see any correlation with Musk and Twitter, but it's your statement, not mine.

It is definitely not my statement.  It was HB's.

I don't believe Elon is nuts.  I never criticized his personal habits and I never would.  I don't care if his nightstand has prop guns or anal beads.  I just think he might be in over his head. Time will tell.
