People don’t realize that other countries have a different definition of ‘Free Speech’ than we Americans do................

Twitter could just not allow their app to be used in the UK................

1984 was supposed to be a cautionary tale, not a blueprint.

As Liberals have reminded us over and over in their high-pitched voices, censorship is the only thing keeping democracy safe and under their control.

“Twitter could just not allow their app to be used in the UK................”

It wouldn’t seem much like Musk to voluntarily drop revenue by a few billion...

Dear Mr. Musk.

I know you can get a little, “Feisty,” when dealing with certain types of people. I’m betting you laugh at them all the time when they react to whatever you’ve been doing since the whole Twitter stuff..

If you want to see these types completely lose their minds.....

Announce that you’re thinking about bankrolling the next Presidential run of a certain Donald Trump.

Then, break out the popcorn.

People have every right to post things they think to be true.

Other people have every right to post opposing views.

That’s how it works Snowflakes.

Isn’t it Hyde Park in the UK where folks used to bring a box, stand on it and
give their opinions in public?

They should know the concept by now.

Musk will hopefully transition twitter into a distributed platform that can neither be blocked nor censored. Think in terms of technologies like bittorrent (back in the day before deep packet inspection and NGFWs were in use.)

I hope every UK politician that votes for this has an interaction with a devout Muslim in an alleyway...
