BTW, the "media" including all socials, until now of course.... call it free speech but just like everything else they have their own whacked out definition of free speech. Right up their with "democracy".

They want to control everything everyone does....they don't want anyone being "free"

There truly is no such thing as disinformation or misinformation as they define it; it’s only information out there the powers-that-be want don’t want the public to know

The sooner people recognize that “the media” and “free speech” are two totally unrelated concepts — almost diametrically opposed, really — the better off we’ll all be.

Surely you believe in free speech... right?

It's not like Elon is allowing Twitter to be the wild west. The content on Twitter hasn't changed much, if at all. He has simply allowed the other side to be heard, whereas they were previously shadow banned or outright banned simply for having differing opinions.

Those advocating for racism and violence are not going to be tolerated... as usual. So, what is the problem, really?

(Quick addition - those promoting anti-white racism are finally being booted, FWIW. There was no moderation of that under previous management.)

In my best captain obvious voice, the left is angry because

#1 - Conservatives are no longer being banned and shadow banned, they actually have the same voice and reach as liberals now

#2 - leftist and MSM political tweets are now being fact checked too

I don't hear #2 talked about much but its really pissing the media and the left off. Until now they were allowed to tweet anything and it never get questioned or fact checked.

Those on the right could post an actual FACT and even it would get attacked and "fact checked" by Twitter.

What? the left losing their collective minds because Musk is about to pull back the curtain on the fraud that has been controlled by left for years and years?

Why is the right losing their mind because they are not the majority on Twitter? That persecution complex again.

Authoritarians and some political groups want to control speech. And I'm not talking about illegal speech which has a long legal history and makes sense. Authoritarians and political groups want to control speech because speech has a lot to do with how we think. And what we think has a lot to do with what we believe. What we believe decides, for the most part, how we behave. I pretty much think that's the sum total of it.

Once again you display an astounding lack of any ability at all to conceptualize anything you haven't been spoon fed by your media overlords. Here's a hint: it's NOT the right that's losing its mind over what's happening at twitter. So much projection

All of that works on people that are lazy and don't use any method of checking out what is true and false. Unfortunately...most Americans.07-coffee3
