Mr. General, how many times per year do you and your surrogate wokers censure debate, comments, opinions, and language on CEO?
Some would say too often; others would say not often enough. Getting the right balance is never an easy task.
Isn’t any moderation considered woke and a denial of freedom of speech you are praising? Wouldn’t that make you a hypocrite?

One could argue that CEO is a small niche space while Twitter is a global forum for communication.

(1. I was banned twice here and took my lumps. 2. This is about Musk buying Twitter.)

Can you show me where someone is saying that any moderation is "woke" or are you just trolling? Because if you're just trolling, I have no issue with banning you, as we do try to get rid of individuals who just come on here to troll, which can often put a damper on members who actually want to discuss or debate things.

Troll? Wow. Maybe you should go back and read my posts and see if I’m a troll. But it is funny that you are praising Musk for bringing back freedom of speech yet you are threatening to ban me. And I was discussing this issue, but you just didn’t like what I said. So if you feel the need to ban because I commented on one of your posts and you didn’t like it, please do, I’m sure I will survive.

I've never heard anyone say that any moderation is woke, so you're just trolling with that, which is what we don't need on here.

There may be people who troll on here, but I’m not one of them. And I’ve never heard of someone who praises freedom of speech moderate someone else’s comments, much less threaten to ban them. So if you want to take one word out of a paragraph and make an issue about it, so be it.

For the record, I don't think anyone is saying freedom of speech requires ZERO moderation. I've also never heard anyone say 'any moderation' is woke. You are the first.

The anti-Musk crowd is not handling this too well. Quite revealing, actually.

MSNBC’s Katy Tur warned that reintroducing free speech values on Twitter could produce “massive, life- and globe-altering consequences for just letting people run wild on the thing.”
Columnist and former Clinton Labor Secretary Robert [...] Reich dismissed calls for free speech and warned that censorship is “necessary to protect American democracy.” He then delivered a line that would make Big Brother blush: “That’s Musk’s dream. And Trump’s. And Putin’s. And the dream of every dictator, strongman, demagogue and modern-day robber baron on Earth. For the rest of us, it would be a brave new nightmare.”
