Remember that Elon is powered by attention so you have to be critical of everything he says. Who knows if there was actually a stalker? Was Elon really targeted or was it just random? Could have been some homeless guy trying to clean the windows.
The elonjet thing has been an annoyance to Elon for a long time, now that he owns the company he can force the guy onto another platform - and fuel the attention engine in the process.
I think it’s as simple as that - not the grand commentary on free speech that people are trying to transform it into.

- GraemeMeyer 4y agoHe does seem to be able catalyse a reaction in thousands of journalists just by farting, so it does seem to be a limitless supply
