I make a ton of jokes about "freeze peach" because the suggestion that legitimate conservative speech on the internet is being muzzled is absurd - if Facebook/Twitter/IG really are the public squares of the internet, then the norm of "talk shit get hit" should really apply.
If he wants to run an unmoderated, right-wing tech site he's more than free to do so.
What he is not free of are his obligations to crack down on calls for violence, trademark and copyright infringement, and to provide fair access to relevant services on the basis of race and sex.
The reason why I don't care is because he's already made it into such a shitshow that everyone I care to listen to has left.
X (FORMERLY Twitter) can do what it wants. If Musk wants to bankroll another conservative echo chamber, it's his right.
- shitlord 3y agoYou might be overstating his obligations. In the US, calls for violence are illegal if they are imminent and likely. But you're still allowed to advocate for violence in more abstract ways (e.g., "all pedophiles should be shot"). He should really find something else to work on.

- raxxorraxor 3y agoI think this is an all around uneducated position to take. Right wing people are not the champions of civil liberties, which includes freedom of speech and expression.
