They cared about left-speech, which is the only type of real free speech. Everything else is intolerance and must be banned, for the safety of everyone's emotions...or something like that.
Trans women are women, lol. If you try to spiral this into an argument about the validity of trans people, I'm not going to engage. This isn't the place for that.
More importantly, you haven't addressed nor refuted my argument. I never said Twitter pre musk was a free speech haven. It's just also not one after musk took over.
Right. The issue is not that Musk is putting his finger on the scale for the political right per se--it's his site and he has the right to do that. The issue is that he claims to be supporting "free speech" while doing so. To my knowledge, nobody at Twitter prior to Musk's takeover claimed the site was for "free speech".
