Watching Musk fans on Twitter slavishly defend the new policy to ban the jet tracking accounts as having nothing to do with "free speech."

What pathetic people they are.

@mmasnick this is what happens when you never really had a consistent ideology to begin with. They're just reactionaries following the latest culture war to own the libs.
@mmasnick
idol worship is a funny thing.

@mmasnick

The best part is that they are defending him *breaking his very own definition* of what is considered "free speech".

@petteriusa @mmasnick Then Edgelord breaks his own new definition of doxxing…

@mmasnick it's not about consistentcy in arguments or positions, is about pwning teh libs.

Bad faith, lies, guns and murder, fraud, insurrection against the vote, plagues, supporting Russia. Anything goes.

@mmasnick

The birdhouse is morphing into the nuthouse faster than I expected.

I do not want to look, but I'll bet they are all re-tweeting each other.

@JShafer817 @mmasnick Seems like the only content rule now is "Thou shalt not offend Elon Musk."

@JShafer817 @mmasnick I said the same thing about ex-Attorney General Bill Barr and got put in Twitter jail years ago. I tried to appeal but no joy.

@bradpatrick @mmasnick I lost my JShafer817 Twitter account last time, because I told Aqib Talib I hope his bro gets executed. I mean, we do that in Texas. Executions.

@mmasnick @JShafer817 The support team is Musk himself, since he fired everyone that knew what they were doing. The new support team has very thin skin and zero sense of humor.
@segv11 @mmasnick @JShafer817 it would be hilarious if not so absolutely sad
@mmasnick oh, you saw that too!! I had some random dude in FB copying and pasting the 1A to “educate” me (with several misogynistic insults on the way) about “the difference “ about government and private … Aoparently this douche just learned that today 😂… But not a peep after I posted this Musk tweet from 11/6.. ( well probably it was a peep but I turned off the notifications 😉)
@mmasnick I feel a little sorry for them. Their ego is so wrapped up in a charlatan huckster they cannot accept anything that makes Electric Jeebus look bad. And ElonJet reminded of Eisenhower’s quote “If you want total security, go to prison. There you're fed, clothed, given medical care and so on. The only thing lacking... is freedom.”
Maybe someday Elon will find out whether Eisenhower was right.
@nick_D @mmasnick It feels like I'm watching the most elaborate 4-Chan prank ever.
@mmasnick No principles, only teams.
@mmasnick before too long, he’s going to ban people for “doxxing” him simply by posting screenshots of his old tweets that make him look bad or going back on previous claims.
