    Musk couldn’t care less about free speech. He has implemented a policy that bans you for using the word “cisgender” while he responds to nazi propaganda with personal admiration.

        The concept of speaking freely is not exclusive to legislation. Musk specifically bought this platform because, according to himself, he saw it as an important place for human discourse and the freedom to speak your mind was being inhibited by the policies around moderation. Which is ironic because he implements policies that ban you for speaking out over arbitrary topics while the previous policies simply banned hate speech.

        Musk on Wednesday agreed with a post on X that falsely claimed Jewish people were stoking hatred against white people, saying the user who referenced the “Great Replacement” conspiracy theory was speaking “the actual truth.”

        “The words ‘cis’ or ‘cisgender’ are considered slurs on this platform.”

        –Musk https://thehill.com/homenews/4061600-musk-says-cis-cisgender-considered-slurs-on-twitter/

        This took less than a minute of research. You aren’t asking for proof out of some concern for intellectual honesty, you’re trying to cast doubt on something that is plainly, obviously true
