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
- Unless you’re a slut, unionist, or too brown
Brown slutty unionists are my kinda people tbh
The Holy Trinity
Damn, I’m only 2 out of 3
Equal free speech, some are more equal than others
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.
While it sucks and in no way defending these actions many sites including twitch, youtube, etc typically rely on advertisers. So deprioritizing sex and violence is typically the caused due to advertisers dictating what material they want associated with their brands. Coke probably doesn’t want to be associated with a person getting double teamed if they are aiming for a “family brand”. eXtwitter is probably trying to appease advertisers since they screwed the pooch ever since Elon took control and they lost a ton of negotiation power. If websites thought they can make $$$ being sex worker friendly they would do it but typically the ads for adult sites have terrible payouts. This is the dangers of a “free” internet.
Have you seen what Elon tweets? He wants anything but a family brand.
And that is partially why many of their advertisers decided to fuck off. Except now they are hemorrhaging far more money, so while their head may be shooting the shit. The actual adults in the room know who feeds them.
free internet
controlled by the whims of massive corporations
You are very close to a realization here.
There are some things only achievable via massive corporations. You aren’t going to be able to copy a youtube or twitch on a fediverse style, well technically possible but very ill advised since storing full video is pricey and the bandwidth requirements will kill the host in costs.
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.

This is such a bizarre point. Why does anyone try to use existing services when they can just make their own. Go dig a well for water and build your own dam for hydroelectric power.
Yes. They’re not developers for a reason.
They prefer to be fucked over at work in a different way.
Oh yeah, give it to me, ohh, ohhhh, OHHH YEAH
Wait why the hell does it still say ‘critical error at line 5176’ HOW THE FUCK DO YOU DO THIS SHIT?! It was so much easier when I just boned people.
Semicolon.
I think the problem with that is banks and companies like MasterCard blocking payments to sex work

Deplatforming is bad when one of left’s sacred cows gets targeted.
So you, due to passing your purity test of being both on the right and against deplatforming are saying you now disagree with Musk’s interpretation of free speech and are now denouncing him due to his deplatforming of sex workers. Right?
I really don’t care about either of them, I find it funny how the argument “free speech only applies to the government” goes flying out the window when somebody we like gets booted of a privately owned platform. And criticising certain parts of leftist rhetoric does not automatically make me a right winger
We?
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?
Poor fools, it’s always run on porn.
