Don't look for Elon to be the savior of anything... especially free speech.

I wish him well. I hope he’s what he seems to be. I won’t be joining because I hate social media.

Musk wants only the worst 10% of comments from the extreme left and the 10% from the extreme right to be censored. Who decides what the extremist comments are? Maybe it will just mean the left are censored too? This may mean that other sites will not be getting the mainstream traffic as people remain on twitter. So it may be just moving things from the left into the middle a bit more?

It makes you wonder, there are a lot of unknowns to the public. One would expect a lot of big players that may be for or against. Musk so far has been more positive then the mainstream. He is there champion with EV but will be ofending them with potentially eliminating the mainstream monopolizing Twitter. If Musk pulls this off and keeps the majority of the USA approving, he should run for president. That might be the biggest wonder.

Why would any large lender facilitate this, since they're all aligned with the side of censorship and destruction of our freedoms? This news makes me skeptical of what had been looking like a possible big win for freedom of speech.
