Its website says the platform will remain “impartial” to political agendas, won’t shadowban users or content, and will “uphold social responsibility.”

I don't feel, in this day and age, like you can be politically impartial (i.e. allow fascists to use your platform to spread propaganda) while simultaneously upholding social responsibility (i.e. not allow fascists to use your platform to spread propaganda).

Yeah, I gave it a shot. I opened the app, and immediately scrolled past a “Jews are secretly ruling the world” conspiracy theory post from a user named something like @ItsAlwaysTheJews… Okay, maybe a fluke. Not a great first impression, but let’s see what else the app has to offer. Then a few posts later there was a “Hitler was right about the Jews” post.

So yeah, it has definitely fallen prey to the Nazi Bar problem.

You can be arguably impartial. Youre not banning them for being Nazis you're banning them for all the stuff Nazis do like the racism. I would also argue you shouldn't be politically impartial and just ban Nazis because Nazis should not feel welcomed.

Isn't this almost exactly what Elon said?

If you look into the founder, you'll quickly realize that he's very much biased and has a lot of agendas to push, and I have no doubt in mind that this is reflected in his platform.
