What does the future hold for Donald Trump? - threadbans in OP

I doubt Musk would care too much if Trump was allowed to come back or not. I'd say he's more likely trying to make sure he can reduce criticism of himself, Tesla, and just say whatever he wants. Musk is interested in his freedom of speech, not anyone else's.

What benefit would there be to Twitter to warrant allowing Trump back? User numbers and shares dropped right after his ban, but have grown since. Twitter has continued to grow without Trump, and the vast majority of his followers are still on Twitter.

Musk might argue for it, but even though he might be the largest shareholder, his shares still only amount to less than 10%.

Trump is most likely going to be allowed back on Twitter if/when he fully announces he's running in 2024, because Twitter probably won't want to deal with the argument of providing an unfair advantage to one candidate over another. So they'll allow him back under stated conditions and under the agreement that they'll ban him if he breaks any of those conditions, but that's most likely Trump's way back onto Twitter, with or without Musk.

Plus imagine the embarrassment of Trump having to be bailed out by an actual billionaire.

You won't get an answer. He'd rather try and copy my post over on the biden thread

I think some will be confused if they think Musk is on the side of autocoup wannabe depots. Refer to the work Starlink is doing to undermine Trump's BFF, Vladimir "Genius" Putin. As for thinking Musk doesn't believe in speech restriction, refer to Tesla's union-busting and the string of Musk employment lawsuits. He's just as happy to 'champion free speech' as he is to say 'but.' Trump committed a serious autocoup attempt and used Twitter's platform to largely help carry it out. 9% of the company held by a day-trader no less, buys the rest of the company into forgetting that?

You still haven't grasped the concept of the difference between freedom of speech, and terms and conditions have you?

Ochams razor shifts to identifying it as gaslighting.

Ah now. Lads, be sensitive, there was a time when the leftist posters who support The Monarchy would have laughed at peasants who thought they could get representation, simply because they were taxed! That isn't how the law worked you silly fools, etc.

Now, I don't have a problem with anyone arguing for why they think Twitter should be considered a government forum, that's an uphill battle for them, god speed, but trying to keep arguing that this vision you have of an America, where twitter is somehow already that, just isn't real.

Because of the demagogues they elect, usually. I've been doing an unscheduled, involuntary case study of my Congressman's social media almost daily for about the past 6 years and I have to say, some of the discussion he's allowed to propagate there have been pretty bad over the years, often it would be things like suggesting fetuses have personhood (not in US law) or suggesting that large portions of the 14th amendment, don't actually exist: that you can exclude the census to only be US persons, and just not count them for anything; also, noncitizens have no right to any of the protections of law, just all the punishments of law. etc.

Speaking of Constitutional Rights, soon the Senate's "States Rights!" politicians will almost assuredly vote to kill a bill passed by the House that will pass off the ability to determine whether cannabis is illegal or not back to the states to decide for themselves.

Jfc - when is she going to get kicked out of the party?

Surely she can be sued for making statements like that?

Jewish space lasers, how hate speech is protected by freedom of speech amazes me
