All day today, and most of yesterday, the Left has been losing its ever-loving mind FREAKING OUT about Elon Musk allowing free speech on Twitter. Apparently, if certain people are allowed to have a voice on the tech platform it will be the end of our democracy, people will start kicking puppies and starving orphans … dogs and cats, living together, MASS HYSTERIA.
It’s definitely been more than entertaining and given us PLENTY of Twitchy fodder.
Elon Musk himself responded to the ridiculous meltdowns:
The extreme antibody reaction from those who fear free speech says it all

Elon’s got their number … and they can’t stand it.
He continued:
By “free speech”, I simply mean that which matches the law.
I am against censorship that goes far beyond the law.
If people want less free speech, they will ask government to pass laws to that effect.
Therefore, going beyond the law is contrary to the will of the people.

Bingo.
We’re guessing he saw Shaun King melting down and screeching about how Elon will allow bad people to attack Jews or something on Twitter. This isn’t complicated or nefarious, it’s very simple.
And yes, it levels the playing field and really, that’s what they fear the most.
Thank you for fighting for free speech.
One person can make a difference.

Seriously.
Twitter is already different. Granted, they still refuse to verify this editor (PROBLEMATIC) but we’re getting there. Sara Gonzales said a bunch of stuff that would have gotten her totally nuked not even a week ago, and she’s still standing.

It has been very telling.
They simply can’t deal with the idea that people may disagree with them.
Imagine being so mad that an African-American dude just wants to let people speak their mind.

If their ideas are so great, why are they so worried about being challenged?

Free speech is no longer a virus on twitter. Thank you Mr. @elonmusk. 🇺🇸

They fear their false narrative being blown by opposing factual viewpoints.

They created a bubble. You popped it.

Bingo.
