I love that people's concern isn't that billionaires own almost all your forms of communication and information media, but that they might allow everyone on it?

Isnt twitter billionaire owned anyway? It makes literally no sense to complain about that since its just swapping between different billionaires.

Yeah probably but it's certainly scattered across more people now, I think consolidation under fewer billionaires is still worse.

I think itβs ironic how the privatisation would eliminate any annual report publicly available, in the name of free speech of course.

Surely people will start publically planning crimes with 0 consequences, that's what free speech means!

All I know is that we absolutely should not update our conception of the βpublic squareβ to include this fad of the internet!
The chefs kiss is when some old boomer argues against this by writing an op-ed in a journal that has to be digitized and linked to online for 95% of the people who might read it.

The funny thing is Trump himself doesn't seem that interested in Twitter at this point. He's more interested in bragging about the Truth Social that nobody uses. Musk probably will allow Trump back on but that might actually benefit the left as Trump's tweets were used to increase liberal voting engagement in 2018 and 2020. I think that the left is ridiculously hysterical over this. Realistically I see a wave of right-wing accounts and that's it tbh. Musk is like that where he exaggerates his promises. Like he will ease up on the censorship but I think that after a few months he'll switch primarily to trying to make Twitter actually be profitable for once. Musk does advocate free speech but he's also a grifter at times. Twitter will become more like how it was in 2017 where you can find content from across the political spectrum. Crazy how leftists think that Musk buying Twitter will be game over for them yet when Trump was on and active dems won both 2018 and 2020. People are exaggerating the political impact of Twitter in America, it's just an echo chamber much of the time. I think Musk could help make Twitter become profitable by monetizing the echo chamber and allowing more political views to be expressed.

It also just makes good business sense to encourage βfree speechβ as it lifts the burden of needing massive βsupportβ branches to handle all the stupid complaints and bans, anger over being banned by mistake, etc.

The worst thing about Jan 6th is that it wasn't nearly as scary or violent as shitlibs say it was.
However it put the fear of God into Elder Lich Nancy Pelosi, so of course the media whipped everyone into a pear clutching frenzy.

I like to him a free speech haven means only bad things get platformed. Even tho haven is in the title. Plus isnt it already the narrative that three quarters of the republican party are Q-tards? So now the fearmongering is even worse? Plus i thought jan six was super cereal terrorism and not people whipped up by conspiracy theories. Plus jan six wasnt successful lol trump lost and boomers fried their own balls
