Elon Musk, Twitter’s next owner, provides his definition of “free speech”

I love how you try to frame this as something Joe did by himself, instead of it being a Governmental decision that had the backing of the entire EU behind it.

Except that Musk is arguing that the only consequences should be those dictated by law, despite him not actually living up to that ideal. In other words, Elon Musk is a hypocrite.

Again I remind you, anyone that uses 'woke' as a pejorative has told you all you need to know about them.

As evidenced by the Tangerine Tantrum. His one and only skill (and he's very good at it, to give credit where it's due) is gulling the gullible.

Pretty much the entire EU also wanted him gone. Anyone trying to make out that it was something Joe did by himself is either a liar or a fool.

I prefer to think of him as a petulant child who also has the keys to the toy shop.

It would be nice to think they'd cease the acquisition but as I noted in the other thread, money and morals seldom mix.

I'm not sure he needs them though - he has more than enough brainwashed followers who seem to think he's a real-world Tony Stark.

Hammer was an egotistical cockwomble with a massive chip on his shoulder whose tech worked about as well as FSD does.

Everyone knows it's the purple one!
I have two and a half degrees myself, and I will stand by red being the best tasting until I die.
Wait, I missed something. If we are talking M&Ms, everyone knows the green ones are the best.
Would you be surprised to find we're actually talking about Crayons?

Pretty good analogy - the bots were good because Hammer hired someone that knew what they were doing, not because Hammer himself did.

You mean, apart from the fact that it conclusively proves he's a hypocrite?
Musk: claims he wants free speech without consequences except where dictated by law.
Also Musk: Cancels a guy's order because guy said mean things about him.
So either he's a hypocrite, or there's some law that says you can't say mean things about him.
Which is it?

We haven't 'lost' anything, child. Musk does not own Twitter yet, and may never do so. And even if he does eventually own it I bet that most people will stick around until conditions dictate otherwise, assuming they ever do.
Sorry if that wasn't as 'triggered' as you obviously wanted, but tough.

Again, get back to us if you ever develop the emotional maturity to decern the difference between 'hate' and 'dislike'.

Twitter isn't a democracy. When you sign up to Twitter you agree to terms of service, some of which are to do with how you comport yourself on their platform. Break those terms and they can (and will) ban your sorry arse.
So, again, cite examples of what you want to say on Twitter but feel you currently cannot.

It would help if you would cite specific examples of things you want to say but feel you can't. You have yet to do so.
Or you could just continue to act like a third-rate Citizen Smith if you want. Your call.

Oh, his(?*) mental state is rather interesting, I agree.

You aren't going to get banned for posting more third-rate fiction about a private citizen.
Again, what is it *you* want to say on Twitter that you feel you cannot?

Correct, without evidence. Any chance of forensic authenticity was lost when the alleged item passed through the hands of multiple people including Giuliani and Bannon.
