It doesn’t seem like Ye’s Twitter account will be any different than before. Since his return to the platform, he posted a simple message that said “Shalom,” which some took as questionable, notes the DailyCaller.
Elon Musk’s decision to reinstate Ye’s account, as well as the accounts of President Trump and some other controversial figures, may be the breath of fresh air the platform needs. It will be interesting to see how things unfold at Twitter in the upcoming months.
