How does disliking Elon Musk make him a POS?
Your ability to logic is astounding. How in the world do you equate the dufus saying he is loving Apple threatening to remove Twitter from their app store as him stating he doesn't like Musk?
You appear to be not only a POS as well but a dumb one on top of that.

Following Terms and Guidelines is not censorship. Users and advertisers have a right to not encounter hate speech.
Musk is free to distribute the Twitter app thru APK via his own website if he refuses to govern his app and wants to continue it's placement on the Google and Apple App Stores.

Also, I don't believe this would withstand anti-trust scrutiny.
You really think FedGov would do anything about this?

All the minions that attack him with the name calling are hilarious. Anyone disagrees with me, then they’re Hitler/bigot/white supremacist/racist. It’s played out. Dividing people on identity politics is all they have because they can’t stand on principle. What are they gonna do, argue against free speech? Nah calling you a white supremacist is easier. The minions eat that shite up. That’s a good little useful idiot says the machine.

It absolutely is if censorship is codified into their terms and guidelines.
And if you are even remotely accurate, surely Apple can articulate which terms and guidelines are being violated. But they aren’t for some reason.

The alphabet people are extremely anti-Musk right now. They really want speech suppressed.

hopefully he develops his own phone and platform. google isnt any better than apple.
I would 100% switch to an Elon platform and an Elon Free Speech Phone. Bring it on!
I would also like to point out how INSANE this entire situation would appear if this took place just 20 years ago?!?

Another bullshite progressive talking point that conflicts with reality.
BTW. You should turn in your liberal card if you are so adamantly supportive of censorship. Just embrace the fact that some of y’all are totalitarian jerks may as well be a world away from true liberalism.

Apple hates free speech:
Apple restricts AirDrop file-sharing in China that protesters have used

Protests have erupted across China in recent weeks against the country's zero-COVID policy, but citizens will no longer be able to take full advantage of their iPhones' AirDrop file sharing feature, which has frequently been used to bypass censorship and spread information about demonstrations.
Under the latest software update, iOS 16.1.1, iPhone owners in China can only use AirDrop to receive files, images, and videos from other non-contacts for 10 minutes, according to 9to5Mac. Once that 10-minute window lapses, AirDrop shifts back to contacts only automatically.
Chinese protesters frequently used AirDrop to spread information to nearby citizens and avoid harsh censorship on social media and in other public places.

It's past time for Democrats to come out and admit it, they do not want freedom of speech, freedom of religion, or freedom to bear arms.

Define this.
And BTW… “hate speech” is still free speech whether your feelings like it or not.

Example A of how uneducated American citizens get their talking points from the corporate owned media.
This has absolutely NOTHING to do with hate speech, contrary to your misunderstood position. This has everything to do with Twitter allowing foreign & domestic government uncensored videos being shown which have the ability to destabilize corrupt governments. The world population is too dangerous to have the truth displayed in real time at their collective fingertips. You think the Chinese uprising would have been covered six months ago had Musk not purchased Twitter?
You are smarter than this post.
