- Comment on Musk’s X suspends opposition accounts in Turkey amid civil unrest 5 weeks ago:
I get that it’s trendy to bash Elon, but he has always said that X would attempt to follow local laws:
By “free speech”, I simply mean that which matches the law. I am against censorship that goes far beyond the law. If people want less free speech, they will ask government to pass laws to that effect. Therefore, going beyond the law is contrary to the will of the people.
He has pushed back on countries who attempt to push their censorship dictates on the world – hence, why many of the account suspensions are only in effect within Turkey:
Some accounts appear to be suspended only in Turkey and not in the rest of the world.
Larger question: Why is Elon/X getting more flak than the authoritarian douchebag – Erdoğan – and his cronies in the judiciary who are censoring and jailing political opponents?
