I think you’re reading into things that just aren’t there. You’re just making a bunch of assumptions. 
 

The tweet thread mentioned blocking trolls. The only person he actually named is Elon. I fail to see how that is demonizing whole groups of people. 
 

At no point did I advocate for blocking people simply because you disagree with them. 

the thread mentioned blocking anyone with opposing opinions by demonizing them.

 

ITs ok. Like most racist. Bigots often dont grasp what they are.

Please show me the tweet in that thread that says to block anyone you disagree with.

At no point in the thread does he say to block people just because you disagree with them. You just made that up. Which is why you refuse to support your claim.

These “prominent attorneys” need to be named and shamed.

 

No matter.  He can then just cross over the border in Texas.

So let’s say I have a Twitter account that republishes public information on private jet activity, including that of a private jet owned by a certain Mr Musk. 
A free speech proponent would never ban that account. Right?

Would you be OK with your home address and where you go being put on Twitter?

Depends on the intent of the person publishing this information I would guess.

Not my point. (And yes, if you know my name and state you can find my address for free in about 20 seconds.) My point is every site will have some kind of rule for what is allowed on it. As I said, this is public information. That flight tracker guy is just making it easier to access. So it’s not “free speech vs censorship.”  Its “my brand of censorship vs yours.” Which is fair if you own the damn site. Which is exactly what those of us who defended pre-Elon Twitter were saying.

So which political party benefits from this form of censorship? Are you saying you were defending Twitter's apparent political censorship?

They blocked the bot account. They are getting rid of all bots and spam on Twitter, I'm not sure why that's so hard to understand. The person who created the bot has a personal account and he was never banned. More fake news

Yes. That is what I am saying. 
- Twitter was a publicly traded corporation, it had duly appointed officers and a Board, and those persons made a decision as to what kind of speech they would prohibit based on business and other factors that were entirely within their rights to apply. (Just as others were free to criticize those decisions and start their competing forums)

- Twitter is now a privately held company that is presumably in compliance with whatever state (Delaware?) authority under which it is registered regarding corporate governance, and if it doesn’t believe that allowing someone to post about the whereabouts of its majority owner’s private plane, that is its decision to make. (And others are free to criticize those decisions or start their own competing services). 
Not really so hard to understand.

It's public information - Musk should have upped his offer when he tried to buy him out...

 

I'm sure those Russian bots have been banned, too, right?

The owner of the account can manually post Elon's flight information from his own account at any time. The other account was a bot that was just running a script to automatically post and all bots like that are being blocked including the Chinese bots that push communism so hard

Tracking where celebrities go can be a safety hazard.  Especially now for Elon.

Why is Elon special?

 

Bet you didn't mind everyone tracking Terry Pegula's private jet on the other side, right?

And now ignoring that it has been shown that it was done in partnership with government agencies.
