Elon Musk is thinking about making a twitter competitor. I think it is a very important development that we all need as free speech and hate speech are being threatened big time. But I of course will have to reiterate that if one cannot say mean words on a social media website then it is by no means "free speech". Lets all hope that whatever becomes popular in the 2030s allows for public use of the words faggot, nigger, etc. not because everyone should use them. but because they're 'the great filter' of censorship. if you ban one word, you have shown you will ban them all. look at twitch.tv there is no end to their word banning with words like "simp" and "virgin" being banned. it's classic propaganda to ban any word. you're trying to restrict the way people think and express themselves. which as Elon Musk says, is antithetical to what a democracy is all about.

@Flock It sounds like you're the one that does not understand free speech because social media has never had free speech. When people say free speech they are referring to the US Supreme Court standard. That is what people want from Social Media, but none are brave enough to give it to them.

@i In my opinion, free speech is a binary choice. You either have it or you don't. You can't say that you believe in free speech as long as you don't say certain things. It makes no sense. Who gets to decide what is and what isn't acceptable? If you really do believe in free speech then you have to be prepared to hear things that you don't like or agree with.

@0xc3dcdb73ae2511207db06dd1ecf4d990fbd8f5d8 > Freedom of speech, also called free speech, means the free and public expression of opinions without censorship, interference and restraint by the “government.” <

@0xc3dcdb73ae2511207db06dd1ecf4d990fbd8f5d8 But just out of interest what do you feel you can’t say “on social media sites”

@Flock you get a 30 day ban for calling someone an idiot on Facebook. Twitter bans people posting factual information like Tucker Bidens laptop (until a week or 2 ago). I would like some a platform that allows at least all that, but I think everything should be allowed (outside anything illegal by US law and the Supreme Court). No platform allows that.
