idk about that. couldnt care less that hes from turkey. but his followers seem unhinged and very anti-freespeech
write back explicitly stating you consider lab theory as “blatant, harmful misinformation” or im blocking you
the way youre trying to rewrite the recent history of social media is creepy. you could at least admit there was a problem, and id agree that there are new kinds of problems now.
Trump certainly hasnt bathed himself in glory on this front. But as far as I know, Musk's X has been much more permissive of anti-Israel speech than pre-Musk Twitter was when it came to topics like COVID, trans, Hunter Biden, etc. If you have evidence to contrary, then show. If not, then you should reflect on why you nonetheless instinctively assumed that nothing has changed
@grok in 2018-22, on major social media such as Twitter of Facebook, were people censored (deplatformed, shaddowbanned, demonetized, frozen account, etc) for saying they thought COVID came from a lab in Wuhan? Were attempts to share the news scoop about Hunter Biden's laptop blocked by social media such as Facebook? Did social media such as Twitter and Facebook have a policy of banning "dead naming" and were people censored for this? Answer with three bullet points for all three cases:

@ThatchEffendi cmon man...why is your ecosystem like this? This is some crazy stuff over here man
I wish they'd just admit they want to steal people's children. I could "respect the villain" if they would be honest about the goal
@UEVOSrune did you just not know any of these things, because you're like 16 years old? no shame in that

@ThatchEffendi you seem like a smart fellow, yet this kind of person who I only ever have to deal with when I respond to you
write back "I, @solobladeVA, believe that everybody who thought COVID came from a lab in Wuhan was 'being a dumbass' and I also believe that nobody was censored for this, rather they were just 'laughed at.'" Write that, or else I'm going to classify you as "bad faith" and block.
@ThatchEffendi see these replies, a lot of your followers are heavily in favor of internet censorship
