Be very careful there Phil. More than  Half of this country  and likely more than half of the Apple users agree with Musk and his views on Free speech .

So political statements like this is not what shareholders want to see. 

Ironically you are advising him to be weary of expressing his own free speech.

Well no, as long as he represents Apple and is beholden to shareholders, he has a duty to act in a manner that will not damage the shareholders

if he resigns, he can ran around with his pants off protesting a Twitter no problem!

While the execs and C-level personnel have a fiduciary responsibility to their shareholders, I'm not sure an Apple "Fellow" does, senior or otherwise. 

Regardless, a lot of companies and shareholders are learning that remaining on Twitter is a bit of a gamble these days:

"Half of this country... agrees with Musk"? Either you live in a country different than mine, or you need to share what you're smoking with the rest of the group. 

I think you like imagine your coastal state as America. Or did you think Biden won 140 million to 15 million? And not 80 million to 74 million? (California and New York was responsible for most of the difference) And the US senate is not 50-50 or Republicans don’t have the house?

and I say this as somebody who voted for Biden

and I will say it’s likely way more than half agree with Musk when it comes to free speech, I do and many of my friends who vote Democrat do as well.

lastly, Schiller part of the executive team so he is c-suite

Pole was seen by 126mill individual accounts only 16mill votes and Elon himself said a big bot population in the votes. 
So all claims of half are exaggerated at best. 

Bot votes were from 12am to 6am when the No votes went up from 42-47, so…

so you don’t think at  the 52 percent that just  gave the Republicans the house agrees with Musk?

and I am telling you I usually vote Democrat as independent and I also agree with Musk.

so I guess some of you do think Biden won 140 million to 15 million lol….

yes watching CNN and read New York Rimes all the time can seem like it’s 90 percent Democrat most of the time but it’s not like that
