Remember that opinions you see on Twitter do not represent public opinion.
This paper shows people only post on Twitter when their minds are strongly made up, but many people are more neutral. This makes Twitter “a bad place to look for opinion change at the individual level.”

Like I always say with content moderation, every social media site owner who is “pro free speech” meets their line eventually.
For 4chan, it was anime child porn. For Facebook and YouTube, it was white nationalist terror. For Elon, it was people making fun of him.
