More free speech means more hate speech, more ”influencers” and more useless nonsense. Want to make society better? I say get to know your neighbors who live close to you. That is what is missing as people stopped living where they grew up about a half century or more ago. No real communities, just virtual ones now. And no, we don’t need an app for that, just a little bit of courage and openness. When was the last time a neighbor knocked on your door for no reason other than to say ”hello, how are you?”.
My cynical take on Musk here, is that he has sold a bunch of Teslas to liberal minded people who care about the environment, but he now realizes that his Starlink connections for rural communities and his cybertrucks require a different buying audience, so he moves to TX and works on his appeal to a different audience. I will give credit to him, though, he is a real pioneer and Tesla/SpaceX/Starlink are moving things forward in astounding ways. I don’t envision how Twitter can be useful or will ever be useful. Maybe he will surprise me but I doubt it in this case.
