Musk's “free speech” agenda dismantles safety work at Twitter, insiders say

  "They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety." If there's a bogeyman that only censorship can keep me safe from, then I'd rather take my chances with it.

This seems like one of those universal quotes that ends up not meaning anything, I guess unless you're an anarchist, you've probably given up a lot of essential liberties. And how are we defining "a little temporary safety"?

        I guess it keeps people who are firmly attached to the gender binary and heteronormativity from having to have their perspectives challenged?

  The thing I'm most interested in is not how many accounts have been re-established under Musk, it's which ones have been newly banned.
