Hey, GOOD LUCK with that! Elon Musk fact-DROPS morons cheering ‘West Coast Big Tech’ for censoring Parler as only he can

Watching mealy-mouthed, frothy-lipped, knuckle-dragging d*ckheads cheer the silencing of thousands and thousands of conservatives on social media by the ‘West Coast Big Tech’ companies has been disheartening. Totally expected but still, you’d think by now they’d have learned that things always swing back the other way.

Not to mention the same big tech authoritarians who took down Parler may someday come for them.

Elon Musk spelled it out in one short but sweet tweet.

Elon Musk @elonmusk

"A lot of people are going to be super unhappy with West Coast high tech as the de facto arbiter of free speech"

He has named his son Saxon Musk.

I swear, if that’s not a promo for a conqueror’s manly “body spray”, I don’t know what is.

:D

Yup. Surrender monkey Freepers since Nov 4 keep bitching about this. One thing about life: everything comes full circle. Elon’s right.

It is only a matter of time until the Thought Police come after Free Republic.

Free Republic will be gone forever if PayPal refuses to process payments to JimRob. Free Republic will be gone forever if domain name hosting sites like GoDaddy refuse to allow the domain name "freerepublic.com" to exist on Domain Name Servers worldwide.

“A lot of people are going to be super unhappy with West Coast high tech as the de facto arbiter of free speech”

I’m reminded of Justice Thomas’ prophetic words during his confirmation hearing about “high tech lynching”. We’ve now arrived in the era of actual “high tech lynching”.

I’m starting to like this guy. Maybe he’s just an opportunist, we’ll see.

What was it I heard today about Musk dealing with China to make his cars?

I like this part here, but the China thing makes me pause.

Official* Pope of Muskanity @RationalEtienne · 9h Replying to @elonmusk and @TheBabylonBee West Coast high tech has to make the distinction between banning hate speech and banning speech it hates.

Elon Musk @elonmusk · 55m This is an important distinction
