Musk and the right have for years claimed to be free speech maximalists.

Now Musk has openly censored the press (after being triggered by some news coverage) and threatened to ban those who posts links to other social media platforms.

The right’s response to all of this brazen censorship? It is mostly cheering him on.

No one has a right to be on a private company’s platform. But the hypocrisy is astounding.

@oliverdarcy I mean honestly you were dumb if you believed they were about “free speech” because all of their actions showed they were about wanting to take the microphone away from marginalized voices and allow unmoderated harassment of us.
