Elon Musk is a nice chap
RJSV:
Vk, you are so intent on flame, forget myself, and please forget the personal inference, that's EXACTLY the style you political activists utilize.
Yes, and I smell bad, often...but thought this thread had to do with social media ?
Funny, though, the smear techniques are same,
"Unhinged Musk",
"Musk making unproven conspiracy theories"...
"We have to stop the dangerous lies about ..."
(Insert favorite exaggeration).
Yes, let's exaggerate, and make up something ridiculous...like "he saying tiny 5G cell towers are installed in the COVID vaccine, spying on you..."...
Hey, ...that's pretty good...I can make up some delicious smears, just twist the fella's words until he
..."appeared unhinged, there..."
...soo juvinile

R.J, I don't "come within a bull's roar" of being a "political activist", & I haven't "twisted" your, Elon's, Don's, Vlad's, or anybody else's words.
Your latest posting is exactly what I was referring to.
It seems like your mind works too fast for either the keyboard, or those us with slower perception to catch up to, so we are "left bobbing in your wake", squawking "Wadda he say? Wadda he say?

Well, it's pretty obvious Elon is bothered, I don't think anyone needs that pointing out.
What isn't obvious is why this is suddenly a problem, when the exact arguments have been made by others, along the lines of "you can't arbitrate over free speech, because who moderates the moderators?"
Who decides whether ElonJet crosses a line? Is it *obvious*, given what is being done is just the aggregation of public information, in a manner that almost anyone could do with a day of effort? Well, it was pretty obvious to me that banning accounts telling people the vaccines have microchips in them, is a good idea, but, well apparently it's an unsolvable problem to decide what information is bad and what information is good.
Unless you're rich enough to buy the company, then you get to decide.
It's hypocrisy to dislike ElonJet and campaign for it to be banned, but not to support other forms of moderation.

Elon was botherder before but still tolerated it. Even though the guy wasn't just reposting publicly known information. Until a car with his son was attacked by some moron who was dressed like ANTIFA.

Nope, it's processing what is not obvious and later when PIA was activated also descrambling hidden information.
Ed.Kloonk:
He'll keep going until he pokes the wrong bear.

RJSV:
Musk didn't say 'blanket pass for any and all speech'... That's another mis-spoken exaggeration, makes (him) look reckless. The old saying about yelling 'fire!', in a crowded theater as a common sense exception still holds.
But when one wishes to 'smear' and confuse the issue, that's a useful 'disingenious' play.
Plus, in light of COVID, looks like you can't, also, yell:
' 2020 election was, maybe, stolen...", because why, again ?
Or, same thing with vax, since subject keeps arising, How about if a person yells "VAX don't work...causes 5G poisoning..."
Purposefully ridiculous, I know, but I just don't feel the threat. The older, well known danger of yelling 'FIRE' is an issue of crowd safety.
Alex Jones, and now Musk, don't really pose a crowd safety issue, or, as stated, an 'existantial threat to our very democracy.'. That's what's ridiculous, genuine.
