I agree.
My concern is with all the people that will not be allowed back on Twitter under Musk even though AJ is allowed back on.
Vox Day applied to be reinstated when Musk took over and said for people to apply to get back on and he never even got a response.
I know of others with greater or lesser reach in the same boat.
rn: Regarding Elon Musk's 'take a vote' re reinstating AJ, I think Trump uses similar tactics to get the conversation going. In this instance (Elon allowing AJ back on Twitter), it may be to drive the 'free speech' hypocrasy to the surface.
I believe Jones has served the Mossad, and likely still does.
But if I say Jones should not be allowed to speak, I join hands with the MSM and corrupt Congress and Jurists who believe that they can justify denying Trump airtime because 'orange man bad.' I believe Jones should be exposed or false information or world views should be debated in the public square and forced to survive the heat of public critique.
I believe that places like FR are a semi-public sphere, like a family restaurant wherein if a loudmouth makes disgusting remarks to about persons of specific ethnicity, or loudly tells obscene stories about his last 'date', he will likely be moved to another part of the restaurant or asked to leave.
In the Q thread semi-public sphere, our serial threads function like a conference room reserved for us to address specific topics without others making it impossible, incessantly complaining about us, disruptively insulting us, insisting we should not be here and the topic is not worth discussing, or using a variety of means to destroy comms and drive people away. Since there's no limit to the number of conference rooms on FR, no one is denied the ability to create areas of discussion, and in turn, our ongoing focus on our content is allowed to exist in a uniquely focused form. We have a body of people sharing this space who also share a similar mission and Q content knowledge base going into its seventh year.
I've never seen the level of trolling on the forum threads that the early Q threads survived (Praise God, and a shout out to Jim Rob and Admin Mods whom I believe God used to tame excessive disruption). For example, they stopped a troll repetitively interjecting 40 identical copies of his harangue on a Q thread just past a total of 120 posts or so. Therefore, semi public settings have flexible rules to promote discussion with minimal disruption.
I believe the public's Town Square is a bit different; it must serve the greater good by remaining open to opposition for the purpose of contending with ideas and opinions in a manner that best benefits the republic, and all citizens, regardless of economic status, race, political party etc.
I recall one of the bigger MSM networks primly defending their rationale for not granting Trump equal time was that he is a liar and they couldn't in good conscience give him a platform to spread his lies. This, from the state-controlled media? Oh, the irony!
As conservatives we win by having the better argument, not by refusing to engage any opinion but our own. The left's capacity to defend their believes started off atrophied and may no longer exist. The public square is where the weakest argument, and it's proponents are found insufficient and therefore rejected.
Re Vox Day and others not re-instated
rn: Something the scale of Twitter would have a long wait time - I forget the name of the other well known person who said he hadn't been re-admitted, but was eventually allowed back in. Twitter banned so many- it seems their human resources in play re-instating? At the same time they are battling tech problems? I dunno.
My other thought, was it is the weird choice of CEO/President Elon put in charge of Twitter? That's another mystery.
Yes I can see the need for your concern. I don't have enough info to compel my opposition...yet. I recall being irritated with Trump re a 'competition' he held (to get us on Twitter) when it seemed so frivolous with the republic at risk, but later it turned out to be a worthwhile strategy(IMHO).
I may not know or like what Trump does some times or why he does it. I can wait to find out when it's Trump because we've seen him in action for 6+ years now, but I really don't know much about Elon Musk. Elon triggers more furrowed brow staring at his decision making sometimes. So far, for now, I am willing to wait to find out what purposes Elon is pursuing, because he is doing so much good and making the right people hate him with a passion while he does it.
