 Yes, it is all weird 
 to the moooon 
 This is just playing into Elon's god complex. 
 I am curious to say how things roll out. Some pretty random Brazilian accounts were banned from twitter (by request from this judge) 
 To see** 
 Me too. Lived through censorship of government, sad too see it repeating over and over around the world. 
 Where are you from?
Me: Brazil 
 it's the right move, for everything else I'm cool with whatever interpretation people have 
 Derek, I'm Brazilian and the media here colludes with the government's outrages with the Supreme Court. our democracy is dying. There are things I don't agree with musk, this isn't one of them. 
 I didn't say I didn't agree or disagree, I'm just pointing out that Musk is most likely salivating as the chance to do this, so he can look like a savior. Right or wrong, him doing so is beneficial to him and his ego. 
 Is defigurehead a word? 🙄 
 Yes I am aware of that. I think that for the convenience of what happened, I think yes, musk should benefit. Everyone benefits, even those who lose out and have interests in a third world country like ours. The issue is strategic between autocratic countries and shell companies from these countries, not denying American and European interests in restricting our business, vice versa. 
 There is just a mistake in your declaration, Brazil never was a democracy, all the democracy was a merely illusion.  
 Not going to work, but it at least show some dumb leftists that that's was all planned. 
 It's happening for a long time!!!
Only now it's getting the world's attention.
 @News from Brazil  
 I’m Brazilian and I am in fear of commenting on posts like this, what does that tell you about this judge? 
 Every country that works to censor the posts should have those posts affiliated with a tag. Then anyone should be able to follow that tag and see all the posts that any given government entity has chosen to censor. So worst case from within its censored (by law) but with the rest of the world - example your strategic foes - they can call see your hand what is censored. Like that kind of poker where everyone else can see the card on your forehead bnut you (your own citizens). Then perhaps Governments will be shamed into censoring less. 
 Let's see how tough egghead is in streetfight
