     @arstechnica what's the difference between God and Musk?
     God doesn't think he's Musk.

     @arstechnica The First Amendment, which protects free speech in the USA (something we get worked up about), is why we don't have laws against libel and slander here. You can just lie to anyone, everywhere, about anyone--you can profit on it even; destroy their lives in the process--because free speech. Can't be prosecuted OR sued for it.

     Yep.

     @arstechnica @mcc I got kicked off of twitter for saying Trump heads the largest domestic terrorist group, which is true. I predict X will continue to spiral down until the only posters are right wing fascists and no one will buy any advertising. Musk's mental health issues are counter productive to a social media site.
