He’s more of a “free hate speech absolutist.”
He’s a free speech absolutist in the sense that he believes that free speech is absolutely not for anyone he disagrees with.
That corporate media journalists continue to hang out in Elon’s Nazi bar surrounded by regulars (including the owner) who hate their guts when they have real alternatives is a testament to their laziness, inertia, and complacency. If Musk ever becomes Minister of Efficiency, their voluntarily being on his site will certainly streamline the regime’s efforts to round them up before sending them to the camps.
He’s a paid speech absolutist, if you can pay for something it’s right, and morally fine.
He would not platform pro-Trans content. He would not platform pro-immigrant content. It’s not just about money. He’s a fascist. Stop giving these people a pass by assuming it’s just about the money. It’s not. He is so wealthy, he can afford to buy a social media company and drive it into the ground to promote a fascist agenda. That is what he is doing.
Yet another reason for boingboing contributors to avoid reposting or redirecting any traffic to X/Twitter/anything else related to Elmo.
Who remembers when Republicans were holding breathless congressional hearings about social media bias? Boy, they were just so performatively outraged weren’t they. Weird how quickly decided to drop that topic. Odd.
Notice that everything maga accuses the Dems of, they actually do them selves.
Remember that free speech absolutist Elon Musk thought that people responsible for blocking links to (non-public figure) Hunter Biden’s stolen/suspect laptop content should go to jail. Now he’s pointing to that decision to justify blocking this information.
Elno is really turning into Trump these days, in that there’s always a Tweet…
Isn’t the same racket the National Enquirer runs?
An unexpected twist in The Twitter Files. The election interference was coming from inside the house!
