ALT A tweet from Elon Musk on April 22nd, 2022. “I hope that even my worst critics remain on Twitter, because that is what free speech means” Context: June, aka @JUNlPER, one of Musk’s biggest critics on the website, was recently banned from Twitter. This ban occurred after June, in a satirical attempt to criticize Twitter’s recent removal of article headlines from timelines, posted a link to an article about Musk with a caption which falsely made it appear that a credible news source wrote an article about Musk being a pedophile. This was not the case, and the post was meant to be a satirical critique of the obvious problem with removing automatically-integrated article headlines. It could also be argued the post was mocking Musk’s infamous tweets in which he baselessly accused a British man working on the 2018 Thailand cave rescue, who rejected Musk’s offers to build a submarine to assist in the rescue, of being a pedophile.
