And freedom to "censor" speech they don't like.

  When did he do that?

    Links to Mastodon, ElonJet, the day he banned a dozen of journalists[1], etc. [1]: https://www.nytimes.com/2022/12/15/technology/twitter-suspends-journalist-accounts-elon-musk.html https://www.nytimes.com/2022/12/15/technology/twitter-suspen...

    There are several instances of left wing folks being banned, he stated that "cis" will be disallowed on the platform, he's removed tweets at the behest of governments like the Saudis, and this post is literally about text disappearing, lol. It's not hard to find instances. Note, I think it's fine for companies to moderate speech on their platforms. No objections there. Just don't simultaneously claim you are some sort of free speech absolutist.

      > There are several instances of left wing folks being banned You understand that you were asked for one, right? This is not one, this is a vague claim being repeated. > he stated that "cis" will be disallowed on the platform No, he didn't. He said that "cis" being thrown as an insult to people who didn't wish to be called "cis" wouldn't automatically be discounted as harassment. Maybe I'm wrong about this - can you find a single person that was banned or censored by twitter for saying "cis?" > It's not hard to find instances. If it's too hard for you to do, why do you expect others to believe you when you say this?
