Musk's Saudi-government-funded "free speech" Twitter now considers "cis" a slur that can be punished by suspension of the account.

Just a reminder that journalists are directly supporting his extremism by pouring their work into his site. And advertisers (including some media companies) are even more directly supporting his extremism.

I have my own hypocrisies, but helping Musk poison our public discourse is not one of them.
