It would be cool to see Twitter unban the thousands of accounts I used to follow. I highly doubt Musk will have or is interested in having any real influence.
When someone claims "free speech infringement" and then has no data to back it up they are either trolling or don't really care enough to make a substantial argument.
Are you suggesting there isn't any banning? What precisely is your claim here?
BabylonBee is a recent example, and apparently Musk had a call with them prior to him making the free speech poll/twitter purchase: https://twitter.com/SethDillon/status/1511325246967660547 (Note: Musk has been on their podcast).
It is genuinely interesting to me. All of the uproar about “free speech” has been confusing to me. Who are these people being censored? What are they saying?
Which accounts? And how can you possibly think he isn't interested in having influence? I'll bet you a pretty penny that there will be a slew of "leadership changes" in the coming months.
I'd be curious to see examples of these. I only know of Trump as having been banned. Plus I guess people who commit shootings tend to get memory holed by all the major social media brands, which might be a good idea? Thousands that you followed is quite an allegation.
If you really followed thousands of banned accounts perhaps you need to take a close look at the company you keep. That should send alarm bells ringing regardless of your perception of Twitter's biases.
