Why is SypherPK mad at Elon Musk?

SypherPK‘s issues with Elon Musk began after Musk’s new policies for Twitter users were circulated. He seemed pretty pissed at Musk for completely changing the ‘For You’ tab on Twitter. Previously, this tab offered similar content suggestions for users. However, after Musk’s take over this tab seemed to offer controversial suggestions to the users.

SypherPk was vocal as he mentioned how this tab suggested violent and racist content for the users. Despite his fans being supportive, this pro-Fortnite streamer couldn’t change Twitter CEO’s mind on the ‘For You’ section.
