Do you guys remember back when Elon insisted he was a Free Speech Absolutist? How he wanted to ensure nobody was censored on Twitter? That shit just gets funnier every day.
His "clarification" was great too.
“By ‘free speech,’ I simply mean that which matches the law. I am against censorship that goes far beyond the law. If people want less free speech, they will ask government to pass laws to that effect. Therefore, going beyond the law is contrary to the will of the people.”
So, you know, North Korea's idea of "free speech" is just fine with him.
considering he unbanned an account that reposted csam I think he doesnt gaf about the law
Limiting free speech in accordance with the law is reasonable, there is no other good solution. The problem is that he does go beyond the law with what he censors all the time.
And he’s still a hypocrite.
He probably rationalizes it by thinking of Twitter as his personal publishing platform, thus all speech on it is subject to his editorial control. To take away his editorial control would be to violate his free speech rights in his eyes.
We all knew he is a liar, so...
Some commenter somewhere said maybe the account wasn’t banned if it doesn’t say “suspended”, and that other “ear truthers” are still on the platform. Didn’t confirm either myself.
