Isn’t a “persistent spike” just an increase?

    Who'd have guessed that Musk's promise to "maximize free speech" was just a dogwhistle to allow the worst of society to say all the worst things with no pushback.

    Oh yeah I guess everyone guessed that. None of these fucks cares about "free speech" they want "free speech without consequences specifically for me, but definitely consequences for the speech of people I don't like."
