Elon Musk: Free Speech Hypocrite
Exhibit A: "Hateful Conduct"
Elon Musk: I call on you to stop the lying hypocrisy that you are some kind of salvational, free speech advocate. Twitter is just as censorious as the other Big Tech, Big Stick platforms.
Exhibit A: I received the email below from X banishing me to the nether regions of the internet. It is my punishment for a comment I posted in response to some tweet by one of the many myopic analysts who is under the illusion that the CIA is a member of the class of "deciders" who call the shots.

I presume of the various categories of Hateful Conduct I violated, the trigger word was “ZOG.” The AI bot used by X assuredly put two and two together using some algorithmic variation of race, ethnicity, national origin, and/or religious affiliation and deduced I was talking about Jews. If so, I now have further ammunition to exhort everyone to abandon the many euphemisms we apply to our overlords and just call a spade a spade, OK?
By the way, who knew violating people with a “serious disease” was a thing? Does psychopathology count? If so, might that affliction be what rendered my ZOG comment guilty?
My censorship is an example of the more scrupulous content moderation policy ushered in by Musk’s CEO and former WEF factotum Linda Yaccarino. She breezily refers to the policing of no-no tweets like mine as “freedom of speech, not reach.” Thank you, Yac, for facilitating my understanding of the Brave New World Order’s visibility limits of the First Amendment.
Who needs the totalitarian Antisemitism Awareness Act soon to pass the Senate and become the law of the land when Musk’s goon watchdogs are "act"ing on it already?
June 3, 2024 UPDATE
Oh, great, Elon now officially allows pornography, but heaven forbid, don’t say “ZOG”!
Looks like you are over the target Cat, bravo.
IMHO CIA, Mossad and MI6 are one and the same: "their" Special Forces.
Elon Musk is a very spooky construct apparently successfully sold to the American public.
“Freedom of speech, not reach” is indeed some kind of perversion and constitutes violation of free speech. Even people particularly interested in your posts, your followers, won’t see it. While it may be understandable that controversial post may not be boosted, they shouldn’t be silenced.
Looking from the bright side, they at least send you a warning. My twits lost visibility without a warning.
