That you had previously spent a good chunk of time arguing on HN in favor of free speech at all costs, only to turn around and wish for speech to be removed from those who you disagree with, is... wow. Literally nothing you have said can be taken in good faith or at face value at this point.
--OR-- Free Speech is about what the Gov't can do.
Like the Democrats said for the past 10 years, platforms should be free to disallow 'bad' content. For 10 years Democrat-run Twitter treated Conservatives VERY badly. Now the only difference is "The Tables Have Turned".
I hope Elon also follows the Democrat example by setting up Federal Gov't (headed by Trump) direct access to a portal on X.com (Twitter) which lets the Conservatives do what the Democrats were doing, and ban people form the platform for PURELY POLITICAL reasons. If it was legal when ya'll did it, it's legal when we do it.
