 Elon posted that X is going to post over the next days all the laws Alexandre de Moraes is breaking.

All you have to do is wait for it and read it.  
 Every person will have their "truth", their political position. Elon will post everything that he believes. I believe in institutions and democracy. 
 Yes. Exactly!

If the institutions are breaking the law, then are they still right? That's crazy.

If he writes down the laws being broken, side by side with the ways they are being broken, is this still a good institution? 

Democracy is banning a platform?  
 I told you witch law Elon broke, can you tell me witch law Alexandro de Moraes broke? 
 Like I said, X will post them over the next days. 

I'm not a law specialist. 

It's so incredible to be defending tyrants. It's crazy...  
 I'm with you on your last sentences. 
Trump...Putin...Bolsonaro...Orban...crazy right? 
 I'm surprised you are on nostr...  
 I didn't know it existed an "nostr person-type" 😉 I'm here because it's a protocol, not a private company who uses your information to make profits, there's no Elon, no Trump but I find a lot of support for those characters. I'm also here for the zaps, you actually get paid if you have a value for someone. 
 Nostr person type is someone who thinks freedom and liberties is an important thing. A crucial thing. 
Someone against big government and control.

You don't sound like that. At all.  
 I'm also for freedom and liberty. I live in Portugal and 50 years ago, we conquered Democracy from Salazar's dictatorship. In the last years, the rise of the far-right movements, the fake news, lies, conspiracy theories and hate speeches as left me very worried. I'm against regimes (left or right), I'm in the middle ground, I'm a social democrat.
Democracy have rules, you cannot offend anyone based on the color of the skin, race, sex, religion, spread misinformation, fake news, lies etc. I'm against that, not freedom or liberty as you mentioned. 
 Sure..

It's the far right rising....
Not the "socialdemocrats" censoring people and arresting people for protesting.  
 Sure..

It's the social democrats....
Not fascists and autocrats undermining democracy with hate speech and lies. 
 "Hate speech"... "Undermining democracy" 
What a tool you are.

Lies. Like what the socialdemocrats said about the COVID vaccines working? 
Or the socialdemocrats undermining democracy by forcing people to take vaccines and lock them at home? 
 👍🏼
