Twitter does belong to Musk and his investors, meaning they are within their rights to act with their property as they see fit. But Musk has often adopted the moral high ground of untrammeled free speech in his justification for buying the platform. In this context, applying new prohibitions on certain terms could be seen as contradictory to this claim.

Not taking away old prohibitions on certain terms could be seen as contradictory too. Take your pick then. We can allow nigger, faggot, tranny, etc., right? Free speech, right? I don't want to be called cis any more than they want to be called fags.

And NOW they think he's being hypocritical but not because he kept Alex Jones banned? Gotta love the left's standards.

I think whatever they call standards are about as consistent as what you'd get from a toddler. Fitting I guess, most have the reasoning ability of a toddler.

That's like saying you love unicorns or something. Leftoids only do or say whatever they think will benefit them or harm whoever they think is their enemy.

They complained about him being pro free speech, and now that he's restricting speech they're also complaining. They're just mad because they're not running the show anymore.

Exactly. I'd be perfectly happy to let those pedos use their slur if we could use ours. But since that's not in the cards I'm fine with Elon making them follow their own retarded rules.
