[flagged]


Okay, but this political stuff is unrelated to the topic at hand.


I can't see the flagged post, but if you think "Elon Musk owns communications infrastructure he can turn off selectively" isn't political, I think you might need to reconsider what's in bounds for political. He's already done it to interfere with a war and he's widely meddled with what "free" speech he'll permit on his X platform.

His ownership of cellular signal is deeply intertwined with politics.


The commenter removed the content of their flagged post, that's why it shows the way it does even if you have showdead on in your profile.

If you mean you generally can't see flagged posts, go to your profile and check the "showdead" option.


> He's already done it to interfere with a war

One of the many Musk myths that continue to float around. There are dozens of them at this point.

The turning off did not happen, it was a misunderstanding by a biographer that he later corrected. (Naturally the correction got a tiny fraction of the reach of the original)


everything is political to someone, whether we like it or not

That's an anonymous post. It's not even conspiracy theory.


does it matter as long as people believe it?
