There's no need to defend Elon here. Clearly what will happen is highly capricious enforcement based on who he personally likes and dislikes.
I do share your prediction that given the ambiguous wording of the cross posting section this will likely involve the feelings of the supreme leader of twitter.
There is at least arguably value in defending/pursuing the truth though.

Visions of the future are sometimes not as accurate as they appear due to shortcomings in the simulator.

Indeed, it seems to simply be the case that the company is supporting “paid speech”.
If no one breaks character (so far so good in this thread), it works out really good, ignoring the consequences of course.
I very much agree, however doing that first requires that one is able to perceive reality without making errors, and that is a lot harder than it seems.
As for censorship: all platforms have it, including HN, and opinions (aka: reality) vary on which approach is best.
At the end of the day as far as i am concerned its a dead platform -- just the ad reductions against the 1bn + interest means the runway is on fire. Whatever elon does at this point is just pretending to do work effort while juggling balls in the air. It is clear he will not only tank twitter but given he has already hit a sell off cliff on tesla shares he will be licky to have any relevent input on that corp in the near future.
