What thousands of accounts did you follow that were banned? Give us a sampling.


ya, let us condescendingly judge you!


Lol exactly. Not taking that bait. Also, follow was the wrong word. They're all lists. I have 50+ twitter lists.


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).

Likely BabylonBee still can't tweet (?), the offending tweet is still down: https://twitter.com/TheBabylonBee/status/1505288002746175494, also this one is word-for-word the same and up: https://twitter.com/TheBabylonBee/status/1503825449285300228.

Makes no sense.


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?
