Show me their bill of rights.
He’s fighting on the fronts where he can still make a difference. Give it time, a day will come when he doesn’t need PRC anymore.

Right here, Articles 35-40. Very bill of rights-like language: Constitution of the People's Republic of China
BTW, what was that people were saying about Twitter being fine without 75% of its employees?

Elon Musk’s Text Messages Explain Everything
then-Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal. The two seem to hit it off—Musk likes that Agrawal is an engineer who can “do hardcore programming”—but then Agrawal sends Musk a text about his unhinged tweets. “You are free to tweet ‘is Twitter dying’ or anything else about Twitter - but it’s my responsibility to tell you that it’s not helping me make Twitter better in the current context,” he says to Musk. This small suggestion appears to enrage Musk and, it seems, alters the entire history of the company forever. “What did you get done this week?” Musk shoots back. And then, less than one minute later, the billionaire writes, “I’m not joining the board. This is a waste of time. Will make an offer to take Twitter private.”

...because that particular theory does not support the local political views of his newly chosen tribe?

And we've entered the "I don't have to check whether anything I tweet is true any more because 'Community Notes' will do it for me" zone.
Elon tweets lie after lie on this thread. He's becoming a morally indefensible, despicable imbecile on Twitter.

Does anyone think that Elon actually believes people want endless masking, or that this is what he needs to fight against?
He's gone full tribal - full absurdity - full scream-against-the-thing-that-doesn't-exist because doing something meaningful might be harder

Careful
Both of you don’t want a public profile.
„No lo etches“ to rephrase the Tejas humble soul. It’s a good discussion and a lot of things get clearer now.

You can always find someone supporting something, no matter how extreme. Issue is that people like to take such an example and blow it up to unrealistic proportions.
Arguing for "burning down" the publication is like wanting to hate a newspaper because one didn't like one article that was published. Kind of a ridiculous standard, but people will forever point to x and keep saying "checkmate! Checkmate!"
Sidenote, I wonder how much Elon would say if his tweets were all done IRL (actually talking to people face to face). In other words, how much of his behavior is because he is doing it behind a virtual news desk? We do kinda see this in podcasts or in person appearances, but often the topics are more controlled or he's with people he agrees with. I only know of that one Twitter space from which he dipped as an possible example, but nothing beyond that.
Well then, I say we burn down Twitter and smash all of its servers because the CEO tweeted a fake news article about the Pelosi attack.

No, that's what the free speech hating criminals do.
Instead, we mock the fake free speechers into hating themselves to death
he used two exclamation marks here so he must be joking

Perhaps he should mark his account as "parody"?

For anyone not following the logic, what Elon means by "I'm not cis" is that he is "normal" and therefore needs no descriptor.
By the same logic he is not heterosexual, he is "normal". He believes that only "abnormal" people should be labeled as such, and that anyone's effort to use more inclusive language is an act of oppression against him.

Clearly enforcing Elon's specific views on pronoun use is UTTERY VITAL to the human race and should be addressed ahead of saving the planet's environment from collapse.
(insert twitter-approved official parody flag here)
For someone who is on the spectrum, he seems to care very little for others who may be different than he is.
