Twitter's mission is "to give everyone the power to create and share ideas and information, and to express their opinions and beliefs without barriers."

Elon Musk just wants to get back to the original intent of the platform and see that mission fulfilled.

Harmful misinformation is telling a woman that abortion is a decision about her own body when another body and life is at stake.

Harmful misinformation is calling a baby a clump of cells.

Harmful misinformation is telling women that abortion, not child-rearing, is empowering.

Harmful misinformation is presenting abortion, not adoption, as the best answer to unwanted pregnancy.

Harmful misinformation is telling women they're better off living with the guilt of killing their preborn children than coping with financial hardship.

Harmful misinformation is the claim that we don't know when life begins.

Harmful misinformation is the claim that saving sex for marriage is shameful or foolish.

Free speech does come at a cost, but it's worth it.

This is like saying, "If you think child molestation is wrong, then don't molest a child."

Actions that harm others are morally significant; they are not matters of personal preference. To say that they are is to descend into relativistic moral madness and to give up one's ground for treating *anyone's* behavior as criminal, or even objectionable.

And if your reply is to say, "Well, I don't agree that abortion harms anyone," then you're just assuming what needs to be proved, namely that the unborn child is not a human life with intrinsic rights, dignity, and value.

Finally, this argument doesn't cite the Bible in either of its obviously true premises.

1. It is wrong to intentionally kill an innocent human.
2. Abortion intentionally kills an innocent human.
3. Therefore, abortion is wrong.

If aborted babies were merely clusters of cells, there’d be no reason for social media companies to censor images of their lifeless, mutilated bodies. The censorship is a tacit admission of the brutality and gruesomeness of the procedure.

If you're going to link your employer's credit card to a personal Instacart account, you might want to spend a lot less than $5,000 a month. We noticed.

I don't even know how you spend that much on Instacart. Do they sell gas on there?

This is both true and terrible. We have no need of brilliant cowards.

You need a biologist to confirm you are indeed talking to a woman, and a team of scientists to tell you how to flirt with her.

Toddlers are expensive, too. If we apply your reasoning consistently, then we should make it legal to murder toddlers because it's difficult for poor people to care for them.

These "arguments" from abortion fanatics always assume what needs to be proved, namely that the preborn child is somehow less human—and thus less deserving of care/protection—than the already-born child. But they're no less human. They're just a little smaller.

If? Get a load of this anti-trans bigot.

You do not have a right to not be offended. If you did, then that would mean someone else had lost their right to speak freely.

The abusive father is the mom.

Great. Now everyone will know I’m not a billionaire.

I love how they put "satire" in scare quotes. Brian Stelter vibes.

Including my middle name was a nice touch. I might as well be a serial killer.

Trump was permanently banned for tweeting that his supporters would have a voice long into the future.

The aim of cancel culture is to raise the cost of speaking freely so high that few are willing to risk it. The pressure to conform "or else" insulates the preferred narrative from criticism. When critics do rise up, Big Tech strikes them down. Hardly any need for gov censorship.

It's a brilliant strategy, but it depends too heavily on self-censorship. So defy them. Speak freely even if it costs you something. It also depends heavily on their controlling Big Tech, as evidenced by the hysterical response to Elon Musk’s pending acquisition of Twitter.

At least he got this part right.

We identify as funny.

Aborting your own body is called suicide. If you have an abortion and survive, then your choice wasn’t about your body.

So he both defends and exercises his freedom? That’s messed up.
