Former Twitter CEO Fantasizes About Violent Revolution, Assassinations

Former Twitter CEO Dick Costolo took to Twitter on Wednesday to express his strong opinions about capitalists who refrain from participation in social justice movements in the workplace and encouraged violence against them.

“Me-first capitalists who think you can separate society from business are going to be the first people lined up against the wall and shot in the revolution,” he wrote. “I’ll happily provide video commentary.”

Costolo’s Tweet appeared in a thread he posted criticizing Coinbase, a cryptocurrency company, and their CEO Brian Armstrong for refusing to participate in certain social and political movements such as Black Lives Matter.
