No, this is the rapid realization that “absolute” free speech is not protected in the US, or in any legal jurisdiction.
When you buy a company and now have skin in the game, idealism turns into realism.
It’s a good lesson for anyone that follows anyone that doesn’t have skin in the game but is just pontificating. These rabble rousers seek attention which is converted into money. All while not providing a product or service but just selling you the privilege to listen to an untested idea that they have no intention of implementing.
“Absolute” free speech is a popular catch phrase. It’s also illegal:

Musk has skin in the game with many of his endeavors and they’ve worked out brilliantly.
But, it was clear to see from day 1 that “absolute” free speech was a pie in the sky idea that he couldn’t possibly implement legally or palatably.
