So Elon owns Twitter
So will Twitter become a Free Speech site or a White Supremacy Pulpit. Trump says he will continue to use Propaganda Social but isn't that like a Junkie saying he won't use Heroin after getting out of jail.

I really don't see this as a free speech issue, rather than a freedom of ownership issue.
Just like Trump's TruthSocial, either is free to run things as they want.
I actually I blame the share holders of Twitter for selling out, rather than Musk for attempting to make money.
They knew all along exactly what he intended.
So now it's up to the users whether Musk makes money or not.
I have never sign up for Twitter mostly because I despise the concept of POPULARITY being best.
So I'll never use such social media. Heck I don't even like the rating system on this site despite having known about it for years.
Yet it's not anywhere near the popularity freak show that is on Twitter.

@DeWayfarer Musk will make a fortune off that failing rag. All he has to do is take the ideological shackles off of it and let it be run like THIS place and it will attract TONS of followers. Then just sell ads and rake in the cash.

@Reason10 he'll make money all right, not the reason though.
It's about POPULARITY, that's what makes money.
You can go to any major TV network and see the same cotton picking thing. It doesn't matter if it's FOX or "MS"NBC or Disney's ABC.
All make their money off of POPULARITY.
Nothing stops you from not using anything. Including this site.
Also why I won't use Twitter.
