Everybody here seems to be jumping to conclusions immediately, which frankly seems intellectually dishonest.

Take a breath, wait for a while, see if the ban stands (or if it was some technical fluke), see if Twitter/Elon Musk comes with an official statement regarding this matter. Right now, it just seems like all of HN are having a gigantic confirmation bias session together.

It was very intentional: https://twitter.com/brenonade/status/1603612768221155328

That's great that it was clearified. _Now_ we can actually have a discussion about it rather than reacting based on assumptions and guesses, which was taking place when I wrote my comment. That was all that I asked for.

He already confirmed it was intentional

Most people writing in this comment section at the time of writing didn't have all the facts. It would have been much better if they held off commenting until today when we know much, much more. That was my only request. Was that unreasonable?

Now that he’s said it’s intentional, has your opinion of him changed?

Did I express an opition on Elon Musik? I was just urging people to wait for the facts before getting all hyped up. Is that too much to ask for? If all the news here would be posted with a one week lag or so, we would all have a much more fruitful discussion than what we have now where people are reacting instinctively with their own guesses of what happened.
