Original intent has limited relevance. Whatever the original intent, the concern was raised. Yet the behavior persisted, worsened, and even developed into an attempted $50K extortion. At that point, your skepticism becomes ill-founded, ludicrous.

The answer is it is against the law


Doesn’t have to be against the law. It just has to violate the TOS Olberman and others agreed to follow.

They are welcomed to start their own platform.

I know a tree surgeon who will give Olbermann a job feeding the chipper.

He travels with a substantial security detail. The thing speaks for itself.

The fact you weren't the first to bring up "Libs of TikTok" is irrelevant. Here is what you said:
quote:

I asked a specific question asking what the distinction was from what Libs of TikTok was doing, and what the ElonJet account was doing. Apparently, the distinction is that Elon can choose to not allow one based on preferences, not any real principle.
Nope.
That is not the "distinction."
Not remotely. Not close. Not even reasonably debatable.

Yet, when posters point out the obvious difference or "distinction" between revelation of a point of view (TikTok) and revelation of an endangered individual's physical presence, destination, and exact time of arrival (Doxxers), you attempt to dodge your own declaration, saying instead:

"I wasn't the first to bring up Libs of TikTok numbnuts."

Your responses seem to fall into a pattern. You get caught in logical fallacy, then attempt to shift contextual paradigm while implying your foil just doesn't get it. In this case, the argument is no longer about a "distinction" which you yourself personally drew. Instead, you imply that as someone else previously brought up the subject, you should be immune from your own expressed musings on it.

Then you further the implication by addressing the caller-to-question as "numbnuts."

Just an observation though.

Musk doesn't? That is a spurious distinction, which I don't think were actually applied here. It's far more likely that every account that followed a well-known person's private jet was banned.

What does this have to do with free speech? Was the government involved in any way?

so was banning political voices only OK when some leftist lunatics were running twitter? Because they pretended to be all about free speech too.

You are the mirror image of the people you are criticizing.


or maybe, just maybe, Olbermann is a doxxing psychopath.

I don't think you follow. Try again. Yes Musk travels with security. Why?

Why does one need a security detail?
