    But it’s perfectly fine for right wing accounts like Libs of TikTok to dox people and incite violence. Go fuck yourself, little bitch Elon.

      Yeah, I’m fine with posting the private info of others without consent meaning your account is closed. When that applies to everyone, and there’s no political bias about it, though.

      Any time they talk about “Free Speech” post the word “Cisgender” and take a picture and post it being blocked.

      X is privately owned. Like all social media companies, it has no obligation to be a microphone for anyone.

        The guy that privately owns twitter claimed to be some sort of free speech absolutist.

        For once this is not someone getting confused about the first amendment but simply calling out musk’s hypocrisy.

        Here’s an article from a year ago that covers the same idea and includes a bunch of direct quotes from musk about his free speech views that his fans love to idolize while his actions bear no resemblance

        https://www.newsweek.com/elon-musk-promised-free-speech-twitter-hes-betrayed-it-again-again-opinion-1794478

        I’ll save you a click with one pull quote

        This time, it’s after he clashed with a BBC reporter over the prevelance of “hate speech” on Twitter. “Free speech is meaningless unless you allow people you don’t like to say things you don’t like,” Musk said in a clip since shared across the internet, including by mega-stars like Joe Rogan.

        So musk using “free speech” to defend hate speech and then censoring this because it doesn’t align with his politics is of course legal, but hypocritical, and logically implies that hate speech does align with his political views or at least isn’t as offensive to him as this dossier.

          Besides, companies like Twitter should have obligations. It’s not a personal blog with 10 visitors per moth, it’s a big ass media platform that shapes what people around the world see and think. And Musk is actively interfering with this process.
