Elon Musk shared he still has no regrets surrounding his purchase of Twitter, claiming his involvement took the platform out of "lockstep" with every other social media platform.

Musk remains the CEO of Twitter until his replacement, Linda Yaccarino, takes over sometime this month but will remain in charge of software development and core principles afterward. As CEO and owner, Musk gave an interview to the Babylon Bee Wednesday discussing in detail the effects of his purchase.

"Pretty much all the social media companies and such companies were acting in unison, along with legacy media," Musk said of the state of social media before he bought Twitter. "So it's just — where do you find, actually find the truth? If everyone is in lockstep with a lie?"

Twitter has since made it a goal to be the "least untrue place," according to Musk. At times, this mission has led to fallout, like when Musk decided to label all news outlets that receive government funding "state affiliated," which outraged NPR. The outlet would ultimately decide to leave the platform as a result of the spat.

"I wasn't aware that [NPR was] there until they said they were not going to be there," Musk said with a laugh.

Musk revealed his recent discovery of a list of repressed words on the platform, which, if included in tweets and users handles, resulted in accounts and posts being "shadow banned" or kept out of the site's algorithm. Among the words was the word "suck" in any context. The owner claimed that the list was compiled with a "woke" mindset that leaned Left. He mentioned that something similar is happening in comedy and that professional comedians run the risk of being "canceled."

"A lot of people on the Left have no sense of humor," Musk said. "They're not funny."

In the end, according to Musk, Twitter has not devolved into a "haven of hate" as predicted by some. Reports of an increase in hate speech were "totally false," Musk explained, because the viewer counts on hateful tweets were down despite increased usage. He claimed that outlets were using too large of a definition of hate speech.

Meanwhile, former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey released an update Wednesday on his most recent project, Nostr, saying he's looking for "more developers who cut their teeth on this" in order to "build something that matters."
