"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."

The weird thing is Elon Musk is willing to pay $44 billion for Twitter, suggesting this is something he has thought about very seriously. But when you listen to his ideas for improving the site it's basically the same shit anyone would come up with, some of which are not even good ideas.
For instance he claims he's not going to moderate anything unless it explicitly breaks the law. Sounds nice in principle, in practice this means you will allow Holocaust denial, pedophiles can openly discuss with other pedos, everyone will have freedom to dox people they don't like, mobs are free to shout abuse at minority groups, etc. Given that Twitter is struggling to make money, I'm sure major brands are going to love their ads coming up alongside the new totally unmoderated content -- YouTube already dealt with this exact issue.
Of course Apple and Google can easily just say, we refuse to carry Twitter until you comply with certain standards...just as they already did with Gab and other apps. The European Union can also potentially force Twitter's hand on this given that US free speech, which allows all the things above, is not the same as that of European countries.
Ultimately everyone has their own version of what "real free speech" is. Based on the kind of stuff Elon is posting these days, free speech has to do mainly with making sure people like Joe Rogan and Tim Pool are not oppressed, but this has got to be the dumbest reason possible to spend $44 billion.

Gives you an idea how this cunt thinks...if he believes the "right" haven't gone further right, perhaps he is just the white nationalist saffer dressed up as "a business genius".

Going to his page and reading his tweets, they’re not that bad and kind of funny. It’s all the retweeting wrapped around other peoples comments to reframe Elons comments to fit their fears and insecurities.

A far-right activist banned from Twitter for fundraising to 'take out' a BLM activist was told by an Elon Musk associate he may get his account back 'soon,' report says
- Everybody who thinks that twitter will be above the law because Musk bought it is an idiot.sted
- As the owner of a private communication company he has more responsibility than ever. And his accountability changed too.sted
- How many far left activists have been banned for the same thing? Some QBNers have wished death on people who don't take the vaccine.Chimp
