    They can say what they want after they no longer work at Twitter. He didn't keep them from saying stuff. Obviously they were promising to be bad employees by being so unprofessional. That's the end result of being bad employees. It has nothing to do with free speech.

    But Trump's mother was not a foreign citizen having relinquished her citizenship due to her communist leanings on temporary Visa during the time of his birth.

    This was the situation regarding Barack. Barack's mother formally relinquished her citizenship in protest due to her communist leanings, and moved to Kenya where she got pregnant with Barack. At the behest of Barrack's father, they got married a few months into the pregnancy and returned to Hawaii. She married Barrack's father so he could obtain entrance into the US. Barack's father had repeatedly failed to score high enough to gain entrance to Harvard under a foreign student program from Kenya. Once in the US he was able to gain acceptance into Harvard by some unknown manner. Within 3 months at Harvard (Barack's pregnant mother stayed in Hawaii) Barack's father met another American woman, immediately filed for divorce from Barack's mother, marrying his new squeeze shortly before Barack's birth. Barack's mother subsequently moved to Indonesia with Barack under her chosen citizenship. Barack's father quickly failed out of Harvard, divorced his new wife and returned to Kenya. Before his death Barack's father had quite a few wives and I believe it was about 24 children combined before his death. Barack got to meet his Kenyan siblings on one short occasion during a trip to Kenya. I suggest reading his book, "Dreams From a Father" if you want the details of Barack's childhood and how he was indoctrinated into Socialism. Barack's childhood was spent largely in Indonesia where he was cared for by a male transvestite with a pet chimpanzee. His mother by all accounts wasn't much of a caretaker and basically abandoned him at the age of 13 when she sent him back to Hawaii to live with his aging grandparents.

    twitters own hr rules, that employees were free to speak without fear of retribution from the CEO

    Musk is free to change the rules to instill fear in the workforce, never said he could not - but if he says he is running twitter for free-speech, it is hypocritical

    but Trump's father came from Germany, changed his last name from "Drumpf", were they hiding something, why change their last name

    why did the Trump's not want people to know they were from Germany?

    "Trump incorrectly claimed to be Swedish for decades"

    https://theweek.com/speedreads/739921/trump-incorrectly-claimed-swedish-decades

    "Fred Trump, made up the Swedish ancestry after World War II so he wouldn't have problems selling apartments to Jewish buyers on account of his German heritage."

    guess we see how the case turns out......

    "SpaceX faces labor charges after firing employees who criticized Elon Musk"

    https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy...er-firing-employees-who-criticized-elon-musk/

    "Former NLRB Chairwoman Wilma Liebman, who served on the NLRB for over 23 years and was the chair from 2009 to 2011, reportedly said the labor board is likely to side with the fired workers. Liebman "said a letter seeking clarification of a company's sexual harassment policies was generally protected by federal labor law," the NYT wrote. "She said the company could argue that the letter's writers sought to criticize Mr. Musk, activity that isn't necessarily protected, rather than to improve their workplace. But she said the labor board would probably disagree because the posts from Mr. Musk that employees criticized could be seen as creating a hostile work environment.""

    I am kinda shocked after his comments about why he would not reinstate Alex Jones, wonder why she got a pass

    "Twitter won’t restore Alex Jones’ account, Elon Musk says"

    https://www.cnn.com/2022/11/21/tech/alex-jones-twitter-ban

    "Musk elaborated on his position Sunday evening, citing Bible scripture and his own personal experience with Sudden Infant Death Syndrome to explain his opposition to Jones"

    There was never a policy that said you can critic the CEO in anyway and not face retribution.

    It's funny how the right has switched from criticising Musk for all the government subsidies and loans he received when setting up Tesla to lionising him as a champion of free speech now he's unbanned a few right wing trolls from the previously hated Twitter.
    They even try to applaud his environmental credentials in their desperation to own the Libs.
    Elon Musk is not the Messiah he's just a very naughty boy.
    Let's not forget he accused the heroes of the Thailand cave rescue of pedophilia because they rejected his insane plan to construct some crazy inflatable tunnel along several miles of tightly constricted tunnels.
    His high priced luxury cars with all their complicated gadgets and blistering acceleration are not what is needed to save the climate. What is needed is the equivalent of the model T or the VW Beetle, a simple cheap mass produced car with a smaller battery and a range that fits most people's actual usage not a high speed high range high priced luxury limousine.
    Nor do we need his vanity project billionaire ten minute tourist trips into space and back.
    The man is clearly insane and in buying Twitter he has bitten off far more than he can chew as witnessed by the flood of advertising revenue fleeing at breakneck speed from his right to offend platform.

    Please, the first amendment applies to government, not Twitter. Freedom of speech has nothing to do with anything Twitter has done. It is politics that have affected their actions, not freedom of speech.

    So I assume that you want us all to wear the same loose fitting, mass produced coveralls while getting our conversation censored in real time by some ever-present internet snoop variant (Alexis?).
    And when we have replaced the comfortable seats in our cars paid for with our hard labor and ambition with wooden seats we'll be ready to make sure our cars are limited to 30mph so we will stay corralled in our local neighborhoods, unable to travel far and share ideas with others that might threaten the control of the global masters? Then we'll be ready to stifle our dreams like going into space and be good little, subservient serfs ready to obey and do what we are told at every turn.
    To you, free speech is "the right to offend" and nothing more. Goebbels would be proud of his legacy you keep alive and well.

    Twitter is a massive media. Censoring it is just like censoring telephones, telegraph, megaphones, radios, PA systems or.. yes.. direct conversations.

    I'm not supporting censorship. I'm just explaining that freedom of speech has nothing to do with it.

    Twitter is a medium for communication.. like a telephone or newspapers. Denying anyone the use of Twitter is like selectively denying someone the use of the telephone, telegrams, or access to newspapers.
