Hollywood star Jim Carrey is leaving Twitter he says (he hasn\u2019t left yet) joining the ranks of other crybaby stars who have shown their true colors since Elon Musk bought Twitter. Jim trashed Musk before making his announcement:<\/p>\n
\u201cCapt Smirk fired 1\/2 his crew. He\u2019s banning comics: shadow banning unverified users, boldly going where no unbridled ego has gone before. Says, \u201c$8\/mo is the price of a latte.\u201d True. It\u2019s also cheaper than a T-shirt saying \u201cRob me. I\u2019m a gullible ass!\u201d BTW Mars mission? FAKE NEWS.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m leaving Twitter, but 1st here\u2019s a cartoon I made with my friend Jimmy Hayward. It\u2019s based on my painting of a crazy old Lighthouse Keeper, standing naked in a storm, summoning the angels and shining his lamp to guide us through a treacherous night. I love you all so much!\u201d<\/p>\n
Other celebrities have left or promised to leave\u00a0including\u00a0Nine Inch Nails Frontman Tren Reznor told Billboard about his decision to leave Twitter:\u00a0 \u201cI\u2019m about to depart. We don\u2019t need the arrogance of the billionaire class to feel like they can just come in and solve everything.<\/p>\n

\u201cEven without him involved, I just find that it has become such a toxic environment. For my mental health, I need to tune out. I don\u2019t feel good being there anymore.\u201d<\/p>\n
Reznor said earlier about his role scoring the hit movie about Facebook, The Social Network:<\/p>\n
\u201cI think the whole aspect of social networking is vulgar and repulsive in a lot of ways. But I also see why it\u2019s appealing \u2013 I\u2019ve had that little high you get from posting stuff online.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut then you think, \u2018Did I need to say that?\u2019 I\u2019ve explored that enough to know to stay kind of quiet these days.\u201d<\/p>\n
Actor and director Rob Reiner said:<\/p>\n
\u201cElon Musk is letting a man who led a violent Insurrection to overthrow the United States Government back on this platform. Letting the Lies and Disinformation continue to poison the American bloodstream.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cElon Musk is a c\u2014,\u201d TV producer Andrew Kimmel added on Twitter.<\/p>\n
Blink 182\u2019s Tom DeLonge said:<\/p>\n
\u201cUnder 8 diff grand jury\u2019s for treason, crimes of humanity, money laundering, espionage, rape and RICO.<\/p>\n
\u201cWtf is @ElonMusk doing? Why would he position himself alongside something like this?<\/p>\n
\u201cElon is a trail blazer holding massive insecurities.<\/p>\n
\u201cHis desire to be funny, and cool is loud. He is seemingly most moved by, literally, people just liking him?<\/p>\n
\u201cIt now seems like a disease to me? But supporting this racist, treasonous f*ck makes me want vomit and quit Twitter.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou just incinerated $44B,\u201d Director Bob Cesca said. \u201cGood luck with your dying platform.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cGet blood pressure pills,\u201d actress Mia Farrow said.<\/p>\n
NAACP President Derrick Johnson said:<\/p>\n
\u201cYou are failing our democracy.<\/p>\n
\u201cYour garbage poll means nothing.<\/p>\n
\u201cDid people outside the US vote? Did you reach out to marginalized communities\u2014the targets of Trump\u2019s rhetoric\u2014for their input? Your followers don\u2019t represent America.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf you run Twitter like this, God help us all.\u201d<\/p>\n
