Dissecting Elon Musk’s Tweets: Memes, Rants, Private Parts and an Echo Chamber



剖析 Elon Musk 的推文:模因、咆哮和回音室

The day after Thanksgiving, nearly one month after Elon Musk became the owner of Twitter, he returned to one of his hobby horses. “I’m just fighting for free speech in America,” he wrote in a tweet.

One of 28 that he posted that day — beginning just after midnight, following messages about how tasty his holiday meal was — the free speech tweet was in response to two followers who were aggrieved about how Mr. Musk was being treated since acquiring the social network in late October. The post was liked more than 46,000 times.
