One thing none of Musk's detractors want to address is that he cleared out thousands of pedophile accounts in his first weeks on Twitter. If you dare to point this out you're accused of being an Elon fangirl. I'm no friend of any billionaire, and don't think he's my knight on a white charger. But I know that prior to Musk, there was no free speech on Twitter, it was heavily censored and merely saying "Men aren't women" could get you booted, and that many thousands of rampant pedophiles had been roaming free for years.
It was a filthy cesspit filled with hateful, violent, aggressive speech long, long before Musk took over. And whatever else he did, he restored free speech and got rid of a lot of nonces.
I couldn’t agree more. As I said, I never trust a billionaire. But if their interests happen to align with mine, i.e. free speech, I ain’t gonna hate on them.
