Let me bring out the same argument people have been using for the last few years while disagreeing voices were silenced on Twitter and elsewhere on the internet: Twitter is a private company. It has no obligation to let you post your opinion on its platform. If you don't like it, go make your own Twitter, or buy it from Elon Musk.

- perryizgr8 4y agoIt's completely valid. Musk is allowed to be a hypocrite when it comes to his company. Anybody who doesn't like it can simply leave.
