Zuckerberg owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. Jeff Bezos owns the Washington Post. Elon Musk owns Twitter. When multi-billionaires take control of our most vital platforms for communication, itβs not a win for free speech. Itβs a win for oligarchy.Robert Reich (@RBReich)Tue, 26 Apr 2022 17:58 +0000

This is β¦. this is not free speech. By definition this means an authoritarian state has free speech by virtue of having laws, no matter how oppressive.

Even if Twitter dies, almost nobody is going to jump ship to a decentralized platform like Mastadon. Too many people crave a centralized network. They want the Network Effect. They depend on it to attract customers.Soatok (Dhole of Puns) (@SoatokDhole)Mon, 25 Apr 2022 17:36 +0000
Iβve mentioned this, but when I was in high school in the late 90s, we were fighting to get sexual orientation added as a protected class to our schoolβs anti-bullying policy. It failed mostly because Christian parents said their kids should have the right to, well, bully us twitter.com/gbbranstetter/β¦Post details
School boards are increasingly adopting a posture where prejudice against trans students by teachers is protected speech, but protection of trans students by teachers is somehow prejudiced speech. twitter.com/JusticeHorn_/sβ¦Gillian Branstetter (@GBBranstetter)Tue, 26 Apr 2022 12:32 +0000

Elon Musk has enhanced his own freedom - to wield power and shape the world in his own image. Will he enhance anyone else's? As a general rule, billionaires gain power at our expense.George Monbiot (@GeorgeMonbiot)Tue, 26 Apr 2022 06:29 +0000

I will believe that @ElonMusk is bringing free speech to this site when he starts posting about sex worker solidarity and lobbies for repeal of FOSTA/SESTA. Sex workers and adult content creators -- not Nazis -- are the true canaries in the coal mine of free speech.Alexandra Erin (She/Her) (@AlexandraErin)Tue, 26 Apr 2022 05:15 +0000
So, if you're just an average American who thinks somehow Musk or some other billionaire is going to enhance the voice of the little guy on the Internet, you are a hopeless sucker who's not paying attention.
