Kangana Ranaut has never shied away from expressing her views on certain topics. The actress recently took to Instagram to share her thoughts on Twitter’s verification process and Elon Musk’s decision to charge $8 to people who want to have a verified account on the social media platform. In her first story, she commended Twitter for being one of the best social media platforms today. She called the platform intellectually and ideologically motivated and criticised their verification process, stating that everyone with an Adhaar card must be verified.
She wrote, "Twitter is the best social media platform that is there right now, it is intellectually / ideologically motivated not about looks or lifestyle, I could never understand the idea of verification that some selected few get, as if others don't have an authentic existence, for example, I will get verified but if my father wants a blue tick then 3-4 clowns will dismiss his very identity as if he is living some illegal life... Everyone who has an Aadhar card must get varied simple as that ( cont)." ALSO READ: HILARIOUS!

Praising Elon Musk’s decision to charge money to people who want a blue tick on their platform, Kangana shared that it will help build the platform's integrity. Comparing Twitter to other social media applications, she wrote, "Also paying a certain amount to maintain a Twitter account will only help it build its integrity, there are no free lunches in this world, have you ever thought all these platforms that you access freely how do they sustain themselves? They don't just sell data, they make you a part of them, influence you and then sell you (your voice/consciousness) every single minute of the day, and that's why there is no free will is such platforms, so it's not a bad idea to try to build a self-sustaining SM (social media) platform... It is easy to arm twist a bankrupt company even if it intends to hold a high value system sooner or later it will have a price tag."
