They have a voice. What they don’t have any more is the privilege to use it without any consequences.
I wish the Left experienced the same, then. Large, influential accounts calling for white genocide and education camps publicly with no consequences or media backlash is a travesty.

I would rephrase it to "political propaganda machine dislikes and distrusts Musk". It is telling that Tesla was not invited to the EV summit or that or was removed from S&P 500 ESG.
Depends which political propaganda machine you are talking about: the one that is outraged at their speakers husband being hit by a hammer or the one flately making stuff up to justify that attack. P.S. I am not an US citizen so I couldn't care less, but when "my" party over here would defend a guy who breaks into someone's home and hit an old man with an hammer because of — you name it — political propaganda I would…
We don't know why Pelosi's husband was attacked. The guy who attacked him appears to be left wing (nudist activist, pro lgbt, he made hemp jewelry, and was a member of the green party). Pelosi appears to have said the attacker was his friend on the police call.
We just don't know enough to say it is political.

#473If Mastodon takes off because of Musk ill be pretty amused. There is an irony to Mastdon, a more open platform than Twitter, becoming more popular because people thought Musk would make Twitter... more open.
QElon's amplification of deranged right wing conspiracy theory wasn't mere trolling or stupidity; it was a declaration of intent.
Never forget he was partners with Peter Thiel, and the two of them together have minted a fascist-friendly grift into literal kleptocracy pipeline for themselves. You don't have to do more than peel back the sticker to learn Musk hasn't invented any of the companies he's associated with; and his success with them hinges on dishonesty and card tricks.

If you're not trying to log in, what's the problem?
As someone that is now no longer using Twitter, I'm open to alternatives, but was turned off by this up-front complexity.

> If there's any conservative content banned or suppressed, no one has yet to find even a single example. A pretty common conservative opinion is that there are only two genders, but Twitter doesn't allow misgendering
That doesn't limit in any way the expression of the belief that there are only two genders. Feel free to run a Twitter search and confirm that for yourself (I just did). I have to say I am genuinely curious to find a conservative belief that I wouldn't find thousands of (unironic/uncritical) hits for in a matter of seconds.

Twitter suppressed the NY Post's story on Hunter Biden's laptop right before the 2020 presidential election. Calling a surgeon who performed sex reassignment surgery a criminal is what got Jordan Peterson suspended until he'll remove that tweet. Trump was banned despite never telling anybody to go inside the Capitol building and even posting a video telling his supporters to go home. Milo Yiannopoulos was banned for…
Trump encouraged a violent coup attempt. Twitter didn't want to be culpable in any further attempts to violently overthrow a democratic government Nick Fuentes is a white nationalist. https://www.splcenter.org/fighting-hate/extremist-files/indi...

It does, you can't tell a non-binary person that they're a man or a woman, if your tweet is reported it will be deleted. If you can find any examples of this they simply haven't been reported or reviewed yet.

How did he encourage a coup?

For what I see from Twitter, I'd say Twitter is the vocal minority.
I've seen the exact opposite, everyone either doesn't care (specifically non-US citizens don't care) and people in the US are cheering him on. There was tremendous support for him when he reinstated the babylon bee and they haven't even posted anything yet

No. People don’t want Conservatives to have a voice.
I've always been curious about that. Does Twitter forbid discussing lowering taxes? Maybe demanding harsher immigration policies? Higher prison sentences? Bans on abortion? Shutting down the department of education? Reinstating a monarchy? Who is more conservative than The Federalist? Quillette posts "race science" articles, and even the Claremont Institute, which is so reactionary that it balks at the term "conserva…
You mentioned in another comment that the "censorship myth" is "easily disproved". You might want to re-think your logic, or stop spreading such BS, even if it sounded clever to you.
