“The extreme antibody reaction from those who fear free speech says it all,” billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk tweeted Tuesday, commenting on the liberal outrage over his purchase of Twitter and plans to open it up to free speech.
Immediately after it was announced that Twitter’s board had approved Musk’s buyout bid, liberal media began fear-mongering. As NewsBusters reports, CBS Evening News warned that Musk’s Twitter will be a haven for hate speech that will allow “bad actors” to run rampant. NBC and MSNBC both warned that Twitter was unsafe for minorities or women.
It is the extreme reaction of those afraid of free speech that speaks volumes.

The reaction of liberals to Musk’s purchase was vitriolic and sometimes even vulgar on Twitter. NewsBusters reports that some of the left-wing celebrities tweeting their outrage over Musk’s purchase of Twitter include:
- Producer Rob Reiner
- Former Clinton administration Labor Secretary Robert Reich
- Max Boot, Washington Post columnist
- Thomas Baekdal Media Owner and Media Analyst
- Black Lives Matter activist Shaun King
In a follow-up post on Tuesday, Musk reassured users that his commitment to “free speech” is limited to only that which is legal:
By “free speech”, I simply mean that which matches the law.
Anything that isn’t in line with the law I oppose.
They will seek laws from the government to reduce free speech.
Therefore, it is against the willful nature of the people to go beyond what the law requires.
