The battle now is for freedom of information and Musk is the hero - but how long will he withstand pressure from the EU and Israel?

“Free speech is hanging by a thread globally, and that thread is Elon Musk … What's happening on X right now is a change of consciousness and … the establishment is desperate to either shut it down or censor it … It is a central priority for the left.” Professor Michael D. Shellenberger. 

Not just the left. Ursula v d Leyen said 'misinformation' is her first priority, before climate change or Ukraine. Netanyahu says US social and other media are the most important military front.

Poland's Foreign Minister and husband of Ann Applebaum Radosław Sikorski said at the Munich Security Conference that the U.S. should not impose its free speech values on Europeans: "In the U.S., it's almost absolute... whereas in Europe, for good historical reasons... we believe in freedom of speech with responsibility." 

I'd have hoped someone who grew up under Communism would not say that but he is a liberal and therefore is frightened of the people just like Western European politicians except the populists.
