What-the-fuck. When did you get your understanding of free-speech from?
Haven't you heard the "I Disapprove of What You Say, But I Will Defend to the Death Your Right to Say It"? That is free speech.
Free speech is about unconstrained flow of information in a distributed system of human beings. Any other way hinders the truth-seeking capability of that system.

Exercising free speech is only applicable in the public domain. If i enter your house you have the right to kick me out if I say something you don't like. Right? Twitter is basically Musk's property. It's his right to set the rules. Whether it's a productive business practice is another question.

I am not interested in discussing semantics and technicalities (FYI Musk himself compared Twitter to roman forum as public infrastructure for communication).
I am pointing out that Musk is not interested in "defending to his death their right to say things he doesn't agree with" on his platform.
