Hopefully Elon will step in to defend free speech at all costs 🫡

Need to share that widely there’s lots of people in the department of war that will need it

It's so hypocritical isn't it.

How can you be all for free speech, whilst quashing free speech when it suits?

No it's not. There's freedom of speech and there's facing the consequences if that free speech breaks the law, company policy, social decency etc. It's why there's slander and libel laws, discrimination and hate laws and more.We've been plagued by cancel culture for years - it's not some new Republican invention. Let's not pretend for one minute that if it was a left-wing/minorities etc activist there wouldn't have idiots posting similar messages and being penalised for it.

Not sure I agree, Tisza. I have absolutely no doubt that Trump will scrap hate laws for instance. Same for discrimination.
