Elon Musk claims his tweets are getting suppressed, tells Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal to fix
India Today
Elon Musk, who has over 105 million likes, on Twitter got only 3000 to 5000 likes in some of his tweets.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk, who is fighting a legal battle with Twitter, has now claimed that his tweets are being suppressed. Musk has tagged Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal and the official account of Twitter verified to solve his issue. Interestingly, Musk has changed his Twitter name to ‘Naughtius Maximus’ whereas his Twitter handle remains the same. The Tesla honcho who has over 105 million likes on Twitter got only 3000 to 5000 likes in some of his tweets. That is when he realised that his tweets were not reaching a lot of people.
Taking to Twitter, Musk wrote, “My tweets are being suppressed. Please fix.” Although his previous tweets did not get the kind of traction he is used to, the above-mentioned tweet got over 44,000 likes. It is very unlikely for Musk’s tweets to not get traction on Twitter because even when he drops an emoji, his tweets get over a million likes and retweets, but some of his recent tweets are struggling to get 3000 likes. Neither Twitter’s support page nor CEO Parag Agrawal reacted to Musk’s tweets.
It is to be noted that Musk is currently entwined in a legal battle with Twitter after he dropped out of the $44 billion deal. Incidentally, Musk’s allegations that Twitter is suppressing his tweets came after Twitter shareholders voted in favour of Musk taking over the company.
Musk backed out of the $44 billion Twitter deal after making big claims about how he wanted to buy the site to save civilisation. He even offered people like former US President Donald Trump, currently banned on Twitter, an option to return to the social media site. After announcing his purchase of Twitter, Musk also criticised some of the top Twitter executives like Vijaya Gadde on social media. But two months later, Musk said that he was no longer interested in Twitter because the website, according to him, had lied to him about the number of bots and spam. Twitter is now suing Musk to enforce the purchase deal he had made with the website.
