Let's see what Elon does for the people of America, now that he has an official position of power. We know what he did at Twitter after gaining control.

I recently read that Elon Musk asked X's software engineers to rewrite the code to enable Musk's postings to get a higher priority and rating than anyone else's. I would call this a form of censorship. It focuses on a particular view to the negation of others. Elon's move may also be classified as arrogance.

Elon did this when President Biden's postings went ahead of his.

Guardian's leadership, in this regard is commendable.

Of course! Who am I, in the context of importance?

Really? Do you have any proof of that, or is it just ‘rumors’? Have a read please: https://evan-soohoo.medium.com/did-elon-musk-really-fire-people-using-lines-of-code-as-his-metric-15c17254ed33.

Elon Musk is a highly intelligent, incredibly successful individual with an impressive IQ—if anyone has earned the right to be confident and sometimes arrogant, it’s him. He’s also been a vocal opponent of censorship, proving his commitment to free expression time and time again. That’s one reason X has risen to become the leading news platform worldwide.

Contrast this with The Guardian. True leadership isn’t about pushing a one-sided agenda or seeking out opportunities to exaggerate and criticize. The Guardian claims to be an objective news agency, but they’ve been caught spreading misinformation on multiple occasions. Meanwhile, X isn’t a news outlet, and Elon Musk isn’t a journalist—he’s simply providing a platform for open dialogue and letting people decide for themselves. That’s what genuine free speech looks like.
