“I know there’s been a lot of speculation regarding what happened,” read a post on Ella Irwin’s Twitter account late Friday, a day after her resignation was reported in US media. Since taking over Twitter in late October, Musk has repeatedly courted controversy, sacking most of its staff, readmitting banned accounts to the platform, suspending journalists and charging for previously free services.
Backers of the video contended the video was being suppressed at Twitter for not using people’s chosen pronouns when it came to gender identification. At least one other high level Twitter executive left after the incident, according to US media reports.
