That the tide turned against Musk when he undid the old Twitter censorship regime which was targeted towards primarily American conservatives. Since then, a lot of folks, including here and on major subreddits like news and politics, have openly wished harm on the site and on Musk. Here Musk was pushing back on illegal [1] censorship, and many people on this thread are celebrating the authoritarian judge responsible.

Lots of pro-censorship people on HN. Remember what happened to Brendan Eich? [2]

Then why doesn't Elon push back against blocklists from the UAE, Turkey, Russia, ... Are those governments less authoritarian than Brazil?
