Independent journalist Michael Shellenberger said Tuesday that Elon Musk’s purchase of Twitter is a significant obstacle to the radical World Economic Forum’s agenda.
Shellenberger, who has reported on batches of Twitter Files exposing the FBI exerting pressure on Twitter’s censorship operations, joined Blaze Media podcast host Glenn Beck to discuss the pro-free speech changes Musk has made to Twitter since he acquired it last year, including an end to one-sided censorship.
"He's basically said ordinary people should be on an equal platform...and we should stop censoring ordinary folks because the elites demand it," Shellenberger said on the Jan. 17 edition of The Glenn Beck Program, referring to elitists in organizations like the World Economic Forum (WEF).
The WEF is a leftist organization that promotes Orwellian initiatives, such as the “recalibration” of “free speech” online. The WEF is also the same radical organization that legitimized an insane idea of microchipping children.
Musk, according to Shellenberger, has seen the “dark side of that hyper-wokeism.” His “purchase of Twitter is maybe the most significant thing he’s done.”
Musk himself commented on Beck’s tweet of the interview and emphasized the importance of citizen journalism. “Citizen journalism is vital to the future of civilization,” Musk tweeted.

There has been much concern about WEF’s ulterior motives over the years, and Shellenberger later wrote about WEF’s authoritarian agenda on his Substack:
The World Economic Forum really does exercise a creepy influence over world leaders and it really does want ‘A Great Reset’ whereby we’ll collectively move to living in low-energy, high-density, and low-privacy environments, having less physical wealth and, yes, eating insects for protein instead of meat.
He also questioned the influence WEF Executive Chairman Klaus Schwab has over leaders around the world. “A rich, secretive, and unelected person, Klaus Schwab, is exercising a weirdly large influence over world leaders on the Left and Right, from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak,” he wrote.
