Elon doesn't believe in free speech

I don't believe in government sponsored censorship. If people want to say crazy dumb shit, so what? Elon is currently in a fight with the Brazilian judiciary over this. I would be firmly in his camp on this topic, but he has sided with government officials in Turkey and India in the past by banning certain accounts. He has defended his actions in Turkey and India by simply saying that "It was his choice." This is absolutely within his rights as a private owner of the 'X' platform but stop standing on a podium of free speech! So, Elon what's your rubric here? https://www.jurist.org/news/2024/04/brazil-supreme-court-orders-x-to-block-certain-undisclosed-popular-accounts/

He is doing that to retaliate. He may lose a Starlink contract there.

How is this fake? He just ignored a Supreme Court order in Brazil! I actually admired his efforts at Space X and Tesla. That still doesn't change the fact that he is a hypocrite.

No. It was never about free speech. It was about control.
