Anyone can see he’s pathologically disingenuous and dishonest, so if you’re a fan of his at this point one more betrayal of supposed core values is unlikely to change anything. The true core value they admire is narcissism, cruelty, and unrepentant, shameless lying, and that hasn’t changed.
- dmix 4y agoIt’s like getting excited about a politician. These politicized public figures are almost always a huge disappointment. Usually you just end up having to take whatever gains you can get. A long sequence of lesser evils. Hoping each will be a net gain among a series of bad ideas. If Elon tries to defend this he’s going to lose a big chunk of the free speech crowd. This one is very hard to defend even by diehards. Regardless of intent like all censorship it will rebound with a Streisand effect hard. So pointless if it was intentional.
