@RepShriThanedar you have to clip it back to 10 seconds to get something you can stand on.... like, literally 10 seconds of a completely out of context statement? You all are very desperate and it is now completely obvious
I don't think people can fully appreciate what X as a free speech platform has actually done! When I was old enough to vote the first time- you know what avenue I had to share my voice with any high-up elected official? ABSOLUTELY NONE. They -never- would have heard my voice. All the dialogue was one-way: the politician talking into a camera, saying nice things during polished speeches and debates. Then they could disappear! Safe and sound with their polished image and speech being the only thing most of us would ever encounter. Once elected, they would go off and do LITERALLY who knows what- but the issues they said they would fix (poverty, homelessness, abortion, helping families) NEVER got fixed- and yet election year after election year- we were just handed this ballot with names of people we either didn't know or didn't like with an R or a D and told- just pick. ALL OF THAT CHANGED WITH X. FINALLY WE ACTUALLY HAVE A SAY. FINALLY, OUR POLITICIANS CAN'T HIDE. FINALLY, WHEN WE KNOW THE TRUTH, WE CAN SHARE IT... FOR THE WHOLE WORLD TO SEE. FINALLY, WHEN A POLITICIAN SAYS RUBBISH -WE- GET TO RESPOND TO IT, IN A WAY ANYONE CAN SEE. That is freedom of speech. And that just happened in the last couple of years after DECADES of living without it. You know your politicians now in a way I never was able to when I first started to vote. GO DO YOUR RESEARCH and VOTE
I agree. For the first time IN A LOOONG time- this is not just political fear mongering- it is -actually- true. Vote what you want to live with: a thriving, wealthy, safe and well-protected, and country where the sky is literally the limit for your success and that of your family OR censorship, ownership by the politicians who sit and look down on you and tell you what to think, and take the money you earn, and hand you poverty and unsafe living situations- and let your highest ambition be to be on their side of things... with no way out (except actual war) if one day you wake up and decide you've had enough. You will Vote. Even if you don't.

This Mom has EVERY right to be outraged...
“You f’d up, CBS… this is my kid you used in your story without my permission. He does NOT have measles. This was his reaction to the MMR shot. Take it down. Now. Issue a retraction. It's much easier than having to litigate a defamation case. I'II wait.”
I still can’t believe CBSDFW ran this story when they knew it was a lie.
A local news station used a photo of a toddler’s rash, labeled it measles, and put it in a story without the parent’s permission. Mom, Dawn Neufeld, said it wasn’t measles — it was the child’s reaction to the MMR shot — and had to publicly demand they take it down and issue a retraction.
That’s not reporting. That’s using a kid’s vaccine injured face to scare people.
@WikiLeakHq Logic from Elon but missing two key points.
Russia will not stop if Ukraine gives up any territory.
Secondarily Ukraine is an ally and Russia is not.
In my opinion (even if my own opinion of the situation overseas and the solution to it may or may not differ) is that Musk is not wrong to call him a traitor... He understands that that man is not just getting involved in something that doesn't likely help the US (unless you are heartless enough to only look at the fact we would be increasing manufacturing- of war related things.. that are going to be used to kill another person)... but also that literally may result in endless death overseas...
@elonmusk Oh man!!! How COOL! Thank you! I am loving all of this so much <3 I can't wait to learn more about and teach my children about making/having investments in our amazing country... our amazing countrymen :)
Women blinded under Islamic Republic, and Taliban, by shotgun and acid attack!
I invited these incredible heroes to Spain and Poland because I believe the real awards belong to them. The Islamic Republic took their eyes for the crime of demanding freedom. They still do not lower their voices, unlike many Europeans they don’t bow to their oppressors.
Europe is legitimizing the Taliban and shaking hands with the mullahs. Before you sign the next deal, sit with these women. Look into their eyes. Answer one question: Why?
Their stories are not only about Iran. They are a warning.
These women fight so their country can be free, and so your democracies stay safe from the same Islamist terrorists knocking at your door.
Europe talks about values. But then it normalizes relations with the Taliban and Islamic Republic of Iran, the same regimes who kick out girls from schools, ban women from working, from being seen, from existing in public life.
The mullahs hang women and men for speaking up. They hang young people for one post on social media.
One day you will harvest what you have planted.
This is called an Apartheid against women and we are all united against Islamic Republic and Taliban.
Choose your ally! You stand with us or with these terrorist regimes willing to expand their ideology everywhere in the West!
well over an hour, huh? Hahaha... man, the left threw people in jail and completely kicked them off of the platform- and also had some opponents shot and killed... I think you'll be alright
Unacceptable. Meta took down the No Kings Instagram today and kept it offline for well over an hour.
Censoring free speech to appease Donald Trump?
We the people deserve answers, but regardless, we will not be silenced.

This is what billionaire ownership of the media means:
Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta shut down the No Kings account for hours during the height of their protests.
Meta suppressed accounts supporting Brazil President Lula da Silva in the recent election.
Larry Ellison’s TikTok blocked advertising for a documentary criticizing Elon Musk.
Fight back. Defeat oligarchy. Preserve democracy.
classic dem move: blame the ones who produce goods and services that we all enjoy, because.. they have money?? okay Bernie- what did you do to earn yours?
