    Private companies moderating content != censorship.

    And I think you have a wrapped few of how it went down.

    Pre-musk moderation was a necessary evil to combat spam, fake news and hate speech. Nobody was cheering, except when some notorious idiots got the boot. Then we were just laughing at the idiots. Fine, call it cheering if you want.

    Now, we are mostly just all laughing at Musk destroying his investment.

    I don’t care if he censors the UAW or whatever. Go ahead and censor everyone except dogecoin evangelists.

    And yeah, people can say stupid shit I disagree with. But I reserve the right to laugh.
