No, it didn't. He is a free speech absolutist. For his own speech, not for yours. He bought twitter so he could speak freely.
Just like how I bought a toilet for Ian Peter Freely
And he still does not understand that free speech ≠ freedom from potential consequences based on exercising that speech.
Edit: but to be fair, I don't know why anyone would expect a robber baron emerald mine nepo-baby from South Africa to understand free speech.
"South African Immigrant To US Says Americans Are Dumbasses."
And the face banquet starts.
Remember kids, oligarchs are not your friends.
Brb, grabbing my popcorn.
All these posts about “[Musk|Trump] fanboys learn their hero is a greedy POS exactly like all the people they hate said they were” should really just go in c/leopardsatemyface
Oh! did you accidentally vote in monarchists to let them do what they want, and discover it's not quite what you want?
The face eating leopards are hungry tonight!
or (for a different allegory) Heron is king now and it's frog season!
Cool. Devour each other. Keep yourselves busy.
This just in, Billionaires like money more than they do regressive morons! The entire world is aghast!
In all seriousness, I had a brief moment of depersonalisation when I looked at humanity from a distance, and I didn't understand a damned thing about what's going on. I mean, I get what's happening, but... Like... what the fuck is even happening, what even is this, are they for real?! Did they expect something else to happen?!
Is this Punk'd, are we getting Punk'd? Mfw Trump turns out to be Ashton Kutcher wearing a Total Recall mask...
Dude. If it turned out to be a new mega-season of Punk’d where Ashton Punk’d all of us for the last…like…15 years, starting with the 2010 midterms? Oh man. I guess that’d also explain where Ashton has been all this time.
Right?! It'd be, like, Foundation levels of precog chess! I mean, he did star in the first Butterfly Effect, maybe that unlocked his potential!
Twitter/X has never been censorship free
They’re not going to give up on H1Bs. They do what they’re told no matter what. This includes building evil shit and working from the office. They’re also willing to work for a lot less.
didn't right-wing figures allege censhorship on Twitter and that's why elmo bought it?
