"You see, Elon is a free speech absolutist!"

[like 2 months later]

TWITTER: IT IS NOW AGAINST THE RULES TO POST LINKS TO FACEBOOK OR MASTODON. THESE ARE THE NEW FREE SPEECH RULES.

Lol, I can't get over how thin-skinned you have to be to ban people from linking to their other social media accounts.
@parkermolloy I viewed his takeover as a way to remove a tool that people used to organize against him because he's so thin-skinned. Banning the ability to reference replacements and avoiding consistency in rule enforcement seem to align with that goal.
@eagerpebble @parkermolloy I viewed his takeover as a way to stop elonjet from posting. Now that he's done with that, I think his next stop is bankruptcy court.
@infinite_loopy @parkermolloy That was definitely the trigger for the offer, but I think the reason he didn't end up paying to get out of the deal was all the negative information about him and Tesla that was disseminated through Twitter.
@eagerpebble @parkermolloy I think he's been lead to this path in an effort to get political protection for legal trouble
