    As long as he keeps saying he’s a free speech absolutist, we have to believe him… Right?

      He seems to be very much in favor of his own speech being completely free of any relation to reality.

        Elon should be allowed to say whatever he wants without anyone contradicting or fact checking him. His power to be free to say whatever he wants should be absolute!

          Everybody knows that you only attain free speech when you control a platform with hundreds of millions of users and can ban anyone you disagree with at any time, for any reason.

          There’s nothing more American than bragging about freedom while your freedom is stripped away from you right in front of your eyes.

      I mean, he’s free to say it, but we’re free to call him a liar until he uses his immense resources to shut us up like he always does.
