Elon Musk 'Not a Serious Person,' Says Twitter Co-Founder: 'Does Stuff for Sport'

Twitter co-founder Biz Stone took a swipe at Elon Musk saying, "U.S. politics isn't a big part of Twitter."

What happened: On Sunday, Stone took to Twitter and said that Musk was doing things "for the sport" that can seriously affect people's lives.

Stone's tweet comes days after Musk released internal communications showing that Twitter censored a story about Hunter Biden's laptop ahead of the 2020 presidential election.

Why it matters: Since Musk acquired Twitter, he has been accused of causing a significant increase in hate speech by people like Oreo cookie maker Mondelez International Inc .

Musk then shared a message saying that "hate speech impressions" on Twitter were down on Twitter - a statement not everyone could stomach.

The Twitter chief's plans to relaunch Twitter Blue have also been halted by fake accounts, impersonations and misinformation campaigns that have victimized everyone, including himself.

Last week, Musk suspended rap star "Ye," formerly known as Kanye West, from Twitter for inciting violence. Twitter is also preparing to resurrect 62,000 suspended accounts as part of Musk's "blanket amnesty".
