Freedom of expression vs Free Speech Absolutism are two different things. Musk is a self proclaimed free speech absolutist.

So, how about child porn on Twitter?

How about rape porn (rapists use gopro cameras these days)

How about directions for making explosives in your kitchen?

Or murder porn? Lots of people like seeing people get murdered IRL.

Torture porn is also popular.

This stuff really gets posted. You know who stops it. Content moderators.

Who have to get paid.

Cut them out of the loop and you can save piles of money.

You do not want absolute free speech and free expression. I worked a gig as a content moderator. You do not want to see the stuff people do to each other. It corrodes your soul.
