But according to Elon, he's a "free speech absolutist" who will bring "actual freedom of speech" to social media.
Yet another example of how every word uttered by a conservative is deception or manipulation. Conservatives are dollar store versions of human beings.
Free speech¹
Brown slutty unionists are my kinda people tbh
The Holy Trinity
Damn, I'm only 2 out of 3
2 of the 3 are something you can change, so that's a win
Pretty sure I can change all three in the right pardner. giggity
Free speech*
*for myself and people of my liking.
Equal free speech, some are more equal than others
That's an insult to dollar stores
Yeah you can actually get some decent stuff at dollar stores if you know what to get
He meant freeze peach. You'll get your can in your inbox soon, silly goose!
Under Musk’s leadership, X has become increasingly hostile toward nudity and explicit content. This week, X started flagging NSFW posts as “sensitive material,” as Rolling Stone reported, and restricting flagged accounts to limit their reach. Sex workers said their engagement tanked and their accounts no longer show up in X’s search, even if they weren’t notified about being flagged.
Let sex workers be, you weird puritans.
"Free speech absolutist."
There absolutely should be no free speech is what he meant.
Only for Nazis
When no one can speech, speech will finally truly be free.
Hey dont insult the Puritans, they were generally egalitarian and anti-slavery, also John Brown came from a Scottish Puritan background. If you got the Puritans of old to interact with these modern fuckwads youd pribably need a hazmat team to clean up whatever was left.
Porn and adult content was one of the hold outs on Xitter. If they're going after that now, usage and users are going to tank again. If they keep this up, eventually the only thing that will be left on Xitter will be right wing assholes, white nationalist, and fascists.
Pretty sure that's the end result they're hoping for.
Look he just didn't get the engagement he wanted on parler
Parler shutdown this year. I guess Elmo didn't get the memo on what does and doesn't work for a social media website.
That might be Elon's intention.
"Bring the mountain to Muhammad" kinda thing since Truth and Gab never took off.
I've said this about all the right wing social networks. Right wingers want to be on a platform where they can spread hate and bully people, no one else wants to be on that platform, leaving the right wing no one to bully, rendering the platform useless to them.
For some reason I read Xitter as Xitler... Time to take medications.
Tumblr users fled to Twitter after the porn ban, now Twitter is making the same mistake.
Downvote Musk spam.
The billionaire doesn’t need your help ensuring him and his businesses stay in the headlines every day. Don’t be a useful idiot.
I wish I didn’t have to work so hard to avoid this sort of content every single day
another hit from the self proclaimed "free speech absolutist"
Don’t a lot of those angry incels go to Twitter to see tits though?
Honestly, if Twitter suddenly cracking down on T&A ends up causing another X-odus to the fediverse, then it is mildly amusing that the "masto" in "Mastodon" is literally from the Ancient Greek word for "boobs".
It's all comes around in a great big circle or a single boob
Good old boobytooth is the place to be!
Poor fools, it's always run on porn.
