He's a liberal, a dying breed. That's who he is.
My statement is not speaking to legalities, but rather to the man himself. His mindset is on public display here, and he doesn't appear to be who he says he is.
Oh look everyone... Public Citizen is actively tweeting. Nobody censored them. Nobody suspended their speech rights.
I think some have missed the point. Just because you, the collective has the right to voice your opinions, so does the reader have the right to ignore them.
Respectfully, but strongly disagreeing.
Musk never said people shouldn't ignore speech. In fact, I think he implied the opposite. People should ignore it if they don't like it....
Maybe if the former Twitter cops had done that to begin with, ignored, instead of banning, suspending, censoring, Musk would not have bought Twitter.
You know who did get banned? LOL!
The bottom of the Tweet say that the one announcing it did.?Did that occur today?

Roger Stone Comes Back to Twitter and Is Immediately Re-Banned
“Well bitches I’m back on Twitter,” Stone bragged on early Thursday morning. It didn’t last long.www.thedailybeast.com
”Bye, bitch!”
LOL

He didn't ignore them; he cancelled them, censuring them off his feed.
His actions differ than his words, just like he fired the employee who's Tweets he didn't like, just like he cancelled the car delivery for the journalist whom he didn't like what he wrote.
Musk's self-promoting his 'free-speech' ethos is falling apart, it seems.
not at all, but I will call out hypocrisy when I see it!You're confused again.
yeah, the underground high speed transit in Florida is hilarious. First hurricane and everyone drowns. It also would likely cause damage to the very delicate aquifer in Florida and would cost a fortune to build....and would be very unlikely to be water tight much less be less maintenance ...it would cost more. This is stupid and he should do it on his own dime and insurance.Of course. Musk is a dude who bounces from thing to thing to thing. First, getting rid of fossil fuels, then sending people to Mars starting with his car, then underground high speed transit, then neural uplinks to human brains, then robots, and now it's Twitter. We can safety say that in four months' time he'll have moved on to something else. This is just another phase.
This is also a guy who makes promises every other week, but only makes good on maybe 10% of them. So of course he's going to tweet about free speech then probably forget about it later. I'm personally waiting for people to start posting falsehoods about Tesla Full Self Driving, to see exactly how far his free speech beliefs extend.
My bet for the next Musk hobby? Hydroponics.
And his wallet. I would wager his wallet actually comes first.Oh, he's not in this for free speech, he's in it for his ego.
That's kind of a weird ignore. We don't see people we don't want to hear, but it doesn't stop them from seeing what I write or commenting on it. Twitter's ignore makes it impossible for someone to see what I write, and therefore they can't comment on my words. I don't like it. It's messing with another's ability to join in the conversation.Public citizen was not denied his free speech nor was he suspended or banned. He's still tweeting. He still has his speech rights intact.
Musk, as a tweeter, simply exercised his right to ignore him. People do that all the time...Ignore.
He owns the platform. He can hire and fire at will now. Not sure about the car cancellation thing...

But how, Trix? They can't comment on anything he says because they can't see it.Person Citizen is still free to comment on anything Elon Musk.
so much for "free speech." Uh huh.
Elon Musk Blocks Public Citizen, Raising A Kerfuffle About Free Speech On Twitter
Elon Musk blocked the consumer advocacy organization Public Citizen on Twitter, leading many to question how exactly he defines free speech on the platform.news.knowyourmeme.com
Leftists hate Elon, Trix. He's a self made rich white guy and they hate people like him.Where is the hypocrisy? Where has he backtracked on his pov?
Elon Musk never said there would not be terms of service; TOS.
Elon Musk never said that people would not be banned for violating TOS.
Elon Musk never said that he is against ignoring trash-type posts or for that matter, any post that is of no interest to the reader.
What he did say is that investigative journalism must not be censored.
What he did say is that people shouldn't be banned for an unpopular right wing opinion.
Try reading what he tweets and stop the embellishments. Everyone has the God given right to turn off Fox or not read the NY Post...but that doesn't mean Fox reporters and investigative journalists from the likes of the The NY Post should be suspended because it was an election year.
And they were!!!
So yeah, you, the collective, are still able to read Public Citizen. What's your problem with those who don't?
First you all get conned by the genius real estate developer and now the electric car guy. What’s the next shiny object that will own the libs?Leftists hate Elon, Trix. He's a self made rich white guy and they hate people like him.
I dont worship anyone. Im a believer in free speech: the one thing you people hate.First you all get conned by the genius real estate developer and now the electric car guy. What’s the next shiny object that will own the libs?
Look at how pathetic the left has become. Impotently crying about someone doing what they have been advocating for for years.so much for "free speech." Uh huh.

I think it’s just democrats don’t like the richest African AmericanLeftists hate Elon, Trix. He's a self made rich white guy and they hate people like him.
With the ignore feature on this forum, I can't see what someone I have on ignore posts to me, or to anyone.But how, Trix? They can't comment on anything he says because they can't see it.
Yes, I get it that if Person Citizen hears him on a different venue, they can still respond, but it just seems more restrictive than our ignore.
