Yet it saddens me to see how misinformation is now being used to divide our world.

👋

Omg the diva's pouting.

Who cares

Why do they always have to announce it just let him go see Nikita

“Sad songs say so much” buh bye

We made you Elton. We never judged you but now I think we are

Oh no…….

Im still Waiting for his account to disappear. remember when whoopi Goldberg n all those woke celebreties said they r leaving usa after trumph became the president? Didn’t happen r8? childish behaviour threaten to leave n wait to see if anyone gives a crap. Just stick 2 singng EJ

I didn’t know he was there lol

Good riddance

He's still alive?

Cry me a river and I will build you a boat ✌🏻

Who?

bye Elton

Funny all these celebs quitting Twitter like they know the truth is about to come out

Free speech isn't important for elton!

Well...Twitter did delete all those pedo accounts.

Yes, it’s so sad that truth is surfacing….

Makes me happy

Who cares!

Well he's retiring anyway

He dosent like truth ? Wow Nice journalisme... Do something on curruption on Tudeau and Lied at Rouleau commission

Who the fuck cares

Frequent visitor of pedo island with his good buddy Epstein.

Bye bye E.J., I guess Saturday nights not right for fightin after all? Fruitcake.........

Later princess.

Bye

Once he removes his pink glasses he will understand the real world that is outside his utopia.

Bye bye.

But we aren’t sad Elton.

Love your music. Never followed you. Sorry you’re not supporting free speech for everyone. Wishing you all the best.

WHO CARES

His account is not deleted

Won’t be missed

It's sad when everyone (we are all equally important) gets to express their ideas and opinions freely?

Who cares?

When the echo chamber changes and makes people that pretend to care about human rights uncomfortable… they leave.

Poor thing 😎

Gotta love when someone with a voice, with international reach, stands up for censoring us commoners

Take your blinders off

One down many to go.

Who cares

I love when clowns keep showing themselves

No one cares what celebrities think they are nit affected by policies that everyday people experience!

So who cares not me maybe he’s low on jab and needs a refill

Smart!

Nope. He's still on Twitter 🤣

Bye.

Nobody cares. He’s a sellout. We get it.

He's also on his 25th farewell tour. Commitment issues.

I wish those people that claim they want to leave, actually delete their account instead lol

eltonofficial sir Elron John before he leaves he should condemned Liberals for infringement on the Bill of rights and trying to by pass democracy to make hunting and sport shooter rifes ILEGAL over night after all his husband is Canadian

He was on Twitter?

Who cares?

Lefties just want an echo chamber... no discussion.

He will be back 😂🤣

I'm still standing

Good news!

Good. Who cares.

Who cares

🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

Kind of a Farewell tour? One of so many !

Who gives a shit?

I wonder what he guilty of

How will we ever survive without his wisdom? 🙄

I didn't even know he was here

Who gives a crap.

Noooooo I won’t sleep tonight lol

Ok so you’re leaving because of miss information possible now on twitter, but blocking New York times account and other blocked for publishing a real story is ok? Makes no sense.

Aw too bad. Don't let the door hit you on the way out

And cue the RWNJ’s, haters and trolls who now make up the majority of user’s on this now completely right wing platform! Looks like most of the sane people are leaving for better quality platforms and leaving simply b/c this place is gone to the crazies and RWNJ’s

Bye bye 👋

We will miss her.

I will miss him.... Said no one, ever.

Has he deleted his account yet? That's the true way of leaving the platform. It's funny how people announce that they are leaving but never delete their account. They truly never leave, just troll.

We value freedom of speech. Good riddance Elton! Bye bye

Oh no 🤷‍♂️

Bye. Don't let the door hit ur ass.

Bub bye Elton. Don't let the door hit you on the ass on the way out.

Ah what a shame. Shame for him.

Another whining woke celeb that wouldn't know the truth if slapped him on the face .

Well maybe he just so upset that corruption has been exposed? too much to bare to see it not welcomed here on Twitter. We thank him for helping Twitter be better.

I couldn't care less.

Who cares. Really!

I can't believe the old fart can even use a mobile phone, let alone a social media app.

And the world responds with a shrug

Bye bye Elton, seriously who cares!

TarekFatah The ultimate message!

Who cares

Don’t let the door hit you on the way out.

Didn't know dude was on Twitter.... We can always find him on one of those cheesy easy listening stations if we need him.

👋

Does anybody really care?

Ohh well....🤷doesn't affect majority of people!! Arrivederci 🤣

Every time a liberal/leftist cancels themselves, the world becomes a more pleasant place.

Who?

So what, the sun will rise tomorrow.

And he used Twitter to share this news with all of us.

the day the music ran away

Meh, no loss

nobody cares...retire already

'I'm still standing' no more... What a clown.

Perhaps Elton should have bought Twitter 🤨

Cuck

See ya!

18 hrs after tweeting that he's leaving Twitter his account is still active. Lmao

Lol, goodbye

Pathetic. That's it? Differing opinions makes him run & hide? I'm glad Conservatives are made of stronger stuff.

TarekFatah 🙄

No one cares

Lol 😆

🤷🏼‍♂️

TarekFatah Blessings There is work to be done

This is great news!

I may need MAID now.

Elton John was on twitter?

TarekFatah Who?

Hit the yellow brick road ?

Good. Not needed

Liberals can't stand it when others have a voice.

TarekFatah Does Sorry Seem to be the Hardest Word? or is that Levon I hear playing in the background....?

Good riddance

He was on Twitter? Once he is told the truth he'll be back.... but not sure why this is even an article... seriously, who cares?

TarekFatah And nothing of value was lost that day.

And who really cares?

TarekFatah

TarekFatah He was on twitter?

Boo Hoo

Boo-hoo!

Elton who ?

Goodbye yellow brick road....

Great tunes but buddy needs to dial it back. Grab a chair and join the show..🤣

The truth is to these far left is misinformation

Well cheer up tomorrow’s story will be his sexual harassment charges going public

May the better rocket man win.

Aw Well... Just another celeb whining about not getting what he/she/it wanted.

Lift off Rocket Man

He's gotta do the virtual signal. When he needs to sell records he'll be back. Very cult like.

Pussy man

I’m not losing any sleep or it

Buh bye boomer!

This is like how my father, who’s 72, has never used social media, and is hard left, is constantly telling me how Elon musk and twitter misinformation are how the right wing are corrupting democracy and instilling fascism. You can’t reason with that level of ignorance

Excellent!

He’s still there.

So what's the problem?

Slow news day?

Who cares

don't follow elton anyway

good riddance, one less woke on twitter

He does the classic ‘Allowing Misinforming’ without giving a single example of what he’s talking about … he’s a virtue signalling buffoon. The elites are hoping his followers will follow suit but they won’t.

Twitter is going to shit.

So long

Poor entitled little man.

Who?

What an establishment tool

later

If he didn't see the division, and misinformation before, he's willfully blind. I like Elton John's music it's sad that he's leaving.

He prefers his own little echo chamber !

goodbyeyellowbrickroad

Idiot

Is it because of a sore botty?

Why would this be news.

Meh

What a loss…

🤣🤣🤣 buh-bye.
