As far as the free speach part, Musk has voiced his desire to shut down VOA Voice of America. VOA has been around for more than 80 years and is unbiased, even though Musk claims that they aren't. Musk also went after the Center for Countering Digital Hate, saying that its members should be prosecuted for “their many crimes" There are numerous other examples of him stiffling free speach. He wants free speach for himself. Not everyone. Just because he said "free speach is the bedrock of Democracy" when he bought Twitter doesn't mean everyone should believe it. His actions have said otherwise.
