Ever heard of Hitler? They let him talk, and talk and talk, it ended up with most of my ancestors dead. Some speech calls for violence and dehumanization against minorities, it should be banned.

Indeed, and Musk wants to ensure that such illegal speech is banned on Twitter.

He has made a clear distinction that the limits of free speech should be governed by law as opposed to by opaque private interests.

He should tell that to his good friend Kanye. Or Trump with his lovely dance with antisemites. Musk doesn't want to ensure anything but his ego and his ability to influence. He cares naught for consequences on anything else.
