“Keep your friends close, but keep your enemies closer “. People outing themselves is a good thing, for future reference.

Yep. I'm pretty much a Free Speech absolutist. If we didn't like when the Marxists had control of the platform we can't like it now.



Agreed. That being said, their jobs and such do not have to operate that way.

Celebrating murder of innocents?
I can handle it's suppression.

Agreed. Elon declared himself a free speech absolutist. This ain’t that, if true.

Threatened violence is different than ridicule.

No! we aren't POS liberals. Free speech and 2a is the cornerstone of our society. Let me say what they want, let us see what they are and respond accordingly

Not like it's a high bar to get a permanent suspension from X, make enough LWNJ's butthurt and they will mass report an account.

The controlling messaging is not on Twitter or Facebook... It's in dark areas of the internet.

I'm torn by this, but it is private company and you have to be responsible. You would not let someone go on your private property and belittle you without consequences. You should expect to be thrown out on your arse.

I agree - let them speak - Then if they have jobs and someone finds out their a vile POS and they get fired - Then that's the cost of being vile. I don't like hiding how these people feel and speak. I want to know them and see them.

Celebrating someone’s death, however grotesque and cruel it may be, is considered violence now?



No. But it may very well be incitement to violence. Case by case determined by Twitter's owner and those he delegates to.
