Elon Musk’s purchase of Twitter, which he has since renamed X, caused a wave of reactions and triggered emotions in many people — some of whom are still having difficulty coping with it today even though it’s been close to a year since it happened. Musk’s acquisition was heralded by many on the Right as a new day for free speech on the social media platform. And, in many ways, they are correct — though the repressive nature of the previous ownership set quite a low bar in that regard. 

Nevertheless, some censorship and speech restrictions still exist on Musk’s Twitter or X or whatever we are officially calling it nowadays. Sure, some of this includes egregious hate speech and arguably inappropriate content. However, some things that should be considered uncontroversial are still given a restriction or warning.
