You tweeted this from an Android device. Not everyone has access to Android devices, apps, cellular service, etc.

Also, charging for verification doesn’t exclude anyone from public discourse.

Also, you’re a racist.

Yes, huge respect to Elon Musk. Stepping into this arena to fight this particular battle must be as daunting as it is thankless. I couldn't imagine taking on scorn from all sides for the benefit of the very people who were heaping it on me.

Occasionally Elon walks by our cell with the keys to our freedom jingling on his hip. And every time we reach for them he backs away and says, "Eight dollars."

If you prefer to silence and suppress people who say things you don't like—as opposed to merely blocking, muting, or ignoring them—then you're more dangerous than anything they might say.

You could also try reasoning with or refuting them. Those are healthy, non-evil options, too.

If you're a filthy fascist then you deserve to have the government and big tech work together to rip out your tongue and compel your compliance.

We must fight fascism with fascism.

If 9 out of every 10 murdered journalists are men, then either women aren't being targeted or whoever's targeting them sucks at it.

Maybe other women are doing the targeting and they have terrible accuracy.

What about a gold check mark on Twitter for $5,000. And no character limit, since rich people say the most important things.

It should definitely cost something to protect your tweets to avoid a ratio. Per-minute protection charge.

Twitter can help us have healthy discussions about elections by not helping us have healthy discussions about elections. Just stand down and let us speak freely.

NY Times reporters are taking extra steps to protect me from their harmful misinformation. I can't thank them enough.

You know where people are going to talk about the downfall of Twitter?

The only thing more costly than standing up to these woke bullies is not standing up to them.

Twitter wrestles with a dilemma created by their commitment to keeping these two promises:

1. "We will not censor anything truthful."
2. "We will censor hateful speech."

Statements like "Men who identify as women are not actually women" are objectively and obviously true, but deemed hateful by everyone on the Left. So whenever these statements are made, Twitter must choose between honoring one or the other promise. And truth always loses.

Here I'm looking at the problem from only one angle. Obviously there are other serious problems with their promise to not censor anything truthful. Beyond the fact that tech companies are terrible at determining what's true, free people have a right to be wrong.
