   No of course not, I'm not obsessed.

   No again. I read what he posts and see what he blocks and what he   
   doesn't. He's not perfect but seems to be far more free speech than   
   any of the other major platforms. That's a big plus for me.   
      
   People who wish to stop others speaking are afraid of what they may   
   say. If you have truth on your side, why would someone else's words   
   bother you? Liars like to crush free speech and will be on the wrong   
   side of history, never been a good sensor, they're evil. A few   
   exceptions, incitement, porn etc.   
      
   If you want truth, read the silenced !!   
      
   > that you, for some reason, deem more reliable than these?   
      
   Not connected to musk but you learn who to trust and who not trust. I   
   see the same people on a whole range of topics who view things   
   similar to myself and the same people who IMHO say and do obviously   
   ridiculous things. So yes, I expect what I see as madness from one   
   group and old fashioned reason, logic etc. from another. There is not   
   much variation in the two groups, they are predictable and static.
