He is banning people sometimes for policies he introduced after the fact, sometimes without policy violations at all. “Free speech” is just not a defendable position for his behavior, he does not subscribe or support free speech.

Twitter moderation was famously bad before Elon, and has seemingly only slightly improved.

What Elon has done however is put the spotlight on Twitter, almost every issue people have with it is a “preexisting condition”.

Except he banned a bunch of journalists discussing him using a policy he introduced after the fact, and in one case, without violation at all. His active actions, not pre-existing conditions, reveal his preference against free speech.

Who is banned from Twitter now that Musk banned? The lunatics that ran it for years banned people wantonly with vague reasons without any remedy for 5+ years in some cases.

Musk revealed files implicating the FBI, CIA and Pentagon but oh my God he voted Republican so he’s evil!
