> Lots of people say awful things on X/Twitter. The standard in the U.S. is not just saying something "awful" or "outrageous" in some vague and subjective sense, it's issuing a true threat or incitement of imminent lawless action. Ultimately that's going to be quite rare in the U.S. - perhaps precisely because other sorts of rude "outbursts" are legally okay, and because Twitter/X will issue bans for threatening or inciting violence. In the UK, the line is a lot less clear than that and people have been heavily sanctioned even for merely "offensive" online speech.
