San Diego City Attorney Mara W. Elliott shared her concerns Tuesday morning, writing that "Twitter is moving in a troubling direction – one that promotes hatred, violence, bullying, and false information."圣地亚哥检察官马Mara W. Elliott周二上午表达了她的担忧，她写道:“推特正朝着一个令人不安的方向发展——一个煽动仇恨、暴力、欺凌和虚假信息的方向。”

Musk’s takeover of Twitter has stoked fear among Democrats that his stewardship will transform the company into a far-right bastion of misinformation, racism, and cyberbullying.马斯克接管推特引发了民主党人的担忧，他们担心他的领导将把推特变成一个充斥着错误信息、种族主义和网络欺凌的极右翼堡垒。
Musk’s stated goal in purchasing Twitter was to protect the freedom of speech, saying in a statement last week that a public square open to diverse opinions is necessary for democracy to thrive.马斯克宣布收购推特的目的是保护言论自由，他在上周的一份声明中表示，一个向不同意见开放的公共广场对民主的繁荣是必要的。
